Probably because it's fairly common knowledge in the supercar-interested community. It is built on the remaining Aerospatiale tubs that were left over when production of the Bugatti EB110 stopped due to the financial indiscretions of Romano Artioli (the owner of the company at the time). As I recall there were 25 tubs left, and B-Engineering took them and built the Edonis around them, using the same basic engine hardware as the EB110 as well. This time, instead of a Quad Turbo 3.5L 5 valve engine producing 553bhp (in GT trim) or 611bhp (in SS trim...600 was also available for a US market vehicle as well), the engine produces at least 680bhp, though I've read that the final target was more like 730bhp. It is also a rear-drive vehicle rather than the 4wd system that the Bug used. I could probably dig up some more pictures if you like...I think I've got a few on my HD.
