I'd like it better if it were a sedan. It's pretty good though.

Had to add something, but otherwise I agree.

Re: Bugatti Galibier leaks out after private unveiling in Molsheim

That is a pretty awesome looking vehicle. I especially love the interior. It is so stunning, simple, clean and uncluttered. I'm usually not crazy about tan/brown interiors but this doesn't look bad. The only thing I'd like to possibly see would be a darker wood, I really hate light toned wood.

Without the humpback rear, I'd say it looked more like the Bentley Continental Flying Spur. Not too spectacular when you factor in how much it's likely to cost.

No, sedan. As in not a hump-back.

I think it looks awesome, but I could do without all the chrome.

Re: Bugatti Galibier leaks out after private unveiling in Molsheim

My first impression was that it looked like a Panamera, but I must say some of the design cues that this thing has are pretty awesome. I love the split rear windscreen with the vertical brake light, the headlights and tail lights are equally as impressive. I wonder if the ridge in the windshield will make it to production?

I am extremely impressed with the interior. It is absolutely beautiful. The simplicity of it makes all of that wood work extremely well.
