It's time for the 'chrome' paint fad to die.

[henk4]

it is just a Veyron, I thought they had raped a serious classic one...

[teatako]

that one came from the factory like that. (http://www.ultimatecarpage.com/car/3370/Bugatti-Veyron-16.4--Pur-Sang-.html)

Actually the pur sang isn't 'chromed', its just sans paint, that's aluminum. I wonder how much the paint weighs on a car.

Also, from that same site. The Bugatti may be pretty cool, but wow, this video is fun:

That was Top Gear...

In their latest(?) magazine, they had two standard veyrons and the chrome pur sang, special edition. One of five, supposedly. The pur sang, belongs to Sheikh Dheyab Bin Tahnoon Al Nayhan ;)

i simply just can not wait to see how teh UAE economy does with tourism, once their oil runs out

[Rockefella]

I think the chrome paint is cool for a few minutes. Then I realize how much of a tool it makes you look.

Thankfully this kind of behaviour is (usually) restricted to the Veyron.

[digitalcraft]

Seriously guys, not Chrome. :(

[Roentgen]

You spelt "Bugatti" wrong. It's one G and two Ts.

And yea... it's just the Pur Sang, unpainted body.

It is? I thought it was carbon fiber underneath.

Chrome sucks. It only belongs in moderation. Or on classic American cars.

[digitalcraft]

It has both carbon and aluminum bits.

Happily, most of the prewar Buggatis are in good hands — even the Royales, strangely enough.

However, what other prewar racers suffered the indignity of wide "gumball" tires and other boy-racer addenda at the hands of owners who bought them decades ago when they were just worn-out racecars? 'Quail can't quite figure out what to google to turn up such abominations on the interwebs, but I'd be interested/horrified to know the awful truth about how some of today's cherished cars were raped and pillaged before they became Pebble Beach contenders.

On the same subject, roughly, I'm sure we'd all give our left testicle for a weekend with a Type-35, but would we give the coveted right testicle?

Discuss, please.
