It's not the nicest black, but it looks good in one color :)

Man the way the hood is shaped, it looks as if the car has huge panel gaps - something you could expect from the 80s and 90s cars. :)

The blue one if I recall well, is in fact done with two similar shades of blue, but not really a single color.

In the same style but easier to see, there is this

Loveley!

Thanks

But that big orange lighter kinda ruins it a bit...the blue one doesent have that...why?

about the side marker on the red two tone, it is surely a North American car. I'd much rather have those ugly side markers then the ugly offset, or front mounted of any type licence plate

and solid blue....

I thought Bugatti said you had to to get it in 2 tone? I myself much prefer one color too.

If you pay enough you can get anything you want, that's with every manufacturer.

I think this is a design feature on the car, well so ive heard cant give you source but im very sure of it but i think its cause of the chassis or something, it makes it look lower then it actually is

I read something like that in a magazine. But don't argue with the build quality of this car because it is of very high standard, it build like a volkswagen :wink:

The red one isnŽt really the color iŽd choose to be honest, black in black is better IMO, but iŽd choose two different colors like black and red.

Scott Storch has a full black one, he was the 2nd person in the US to get a bug, behind ralph lauren of course :wink:
It's my understanding that RL only got his in the last 6 weeks. The first one I was aware of for delivery was a year and a few weeks ago ;)
