They've done that with a few models like the Pur Sang & Sang Bleu below. The Sang Noir is also one that exposes quite a bit of carbon fiber, iirc.

Their builds are ridiculous!

Is this going to have a photo op with the matte white SLR?

Of course. You may even see it at the LA Auto Show.

I would drive it anywhere anytime. Well, except for into Galveston Bay on video.

It's Clutch, not feeling the wheels off the car, but I will withhold final judgement until the project is complete.

I have to agree on the wheels, spokes are way complicated.

I am sure how deep dish wheels look on Veryron?

The wheels going on this car appear to be the same that are on the green SS above, just without the blacked out spokes. I like them.

Do any of Platinums mechanics have experience in dealing with a Veyron? Or does their experience come from just getting in there and doing it?

There's a first for every mechanic. This is the second Veyron that PM has worked on, so they do have some knowledge and experience.

Veyron #1 before:



Veyron #1 finished result:

SICK, the flat white and gloss black look great.

WTF do know I know about wheels but relative to lambo/ferrari wheel designs aren't the buggatti's lacking?

Also these cars do nothing for me, yea it's a bugatti, yea it's really really fast, but even then it's just MEH
