I saw this car in person ( I touched it) The one I saw was Navy and drak-blue
It is displayed in the VW cnter in Berlin
This car is as wide as a bus and no higher than my navel ( im 6.2 ) !!
It DOES have a 16 cilynder. However It looked like it was a V engine.
YOu cant really tell from the posted pics but the engine is exposed between those massive silver intakes and it looks like a V engine to me... PLus the plaque detailing the car's specs read V16 1001 hp...
Bugatti is a partner brand of VW just like Bentley so the W seems logical, although the VW Phaeton is the only car I know that currently boasts a W engine. Maybe there is a more recent model than the one I saw this summer.
I talked to the selesperson at the Bugatti desk...he doesnt get much action...it sells for 2,000,000+ Euro !!
i asked him to fire up the engine but he sayd he couldnt (damn)

anyways, nice car.
