Hmm, as Bugatti is owned by VW, and so is Bentley... why do I feel the back of the car resembles a Continental...

Oh, well the front is at least... interesting!

I don't like the front OR the back, but the side doesn't look bad. I wouldn't get one (not that I could anyway) .

I would say b/c the front looks similar to the Veyron...
but this 4-door just isn't doing anything for me :thumbsdown:

Jay-Z & 50 will get one, then ball players, then Becks will have to get one for Posh,.........see where I'm going.
I predict a hit for VW....err....Bugatti.

The front end is too much. I like the rear quarter view. The side looks like it might be the 2010 versions of the Laker's shoes. Strange rendition of quads!

I have long been a Bugatti fan but this cools me off somewhat.

I sure don't like the exterior chrome but I would kill to have the Veyron's 1,000 plus bhp engine in a sedan.
