I see this car as a Ford GT compared to a GT3 RS, its got bucket loads more power than the GT3 RS (aka Carrera GT and Enzo) yet cant handle as well, but in the end laps pretty similarly to the better handling car mostly because of its power advantage.
This car will shock people when it comes out, especially those saying its too heavy and cant handle..

It sure will be an amazingly fast car, however,
It looks like a burrito or a wrap... Dont like the looks of it one bit.
I'd be amazing if McLaren go their way and take out a car faster than the Veryon within the same or next year this car is out for sale.

lol yea that is not the most flattering angle of the car at all. i am kinda off and on about the styling, some angles it looks great and others i would agree it looks kinda bulbous. the rear of the car is i think the best view.

Is it just me, or do the front tyres look incredibly small compared to the rears?

I was in California for the historics 2 years back. There was on of these going around the track. The test driver was showing how the car handled. It spun about 720 degrees before stopping. this car is going to be a big sales failure. Don't get me wrong it is truly a great looking car. but it has taken entirely to long to develope and customers might have lost interest.

according to CAR magazine, which has a three page article on the car, 50 have been ordered.
Also 14 cars have been ordered, one Sheik has ordered 14, one for each of his 12 sons and two for himself.
sales failure, well, we have to wait and see.

Actually most of these hyper exclusive supercars turn out to be sales failures.
Chances are VW won't make anything off of the car even if they sell every one
which I garentee you they will. And I garentee you VW already knows they won't
make anything off of it.

Grill looks ugly, and from the door back it looks like another car attached to it....
if you use ur imagination u can see that the back part does not go well with the lines of th front half.
THe back looks like its swallowing the front. Dont like it sorry. No body shape... its just one big circle.

The defenition of "Sales Failure" varies depending how you look at it. The car could lose a rather lot of money (which it is supposed to) but still be considered quite a success. This was supposed to be a halo car anyway, to bring back the Bugatti name.
