I thought in EVO this month they said it was axed, and was going to be a two door coupe?

That was my assumption too, but then surely they should just go and make a MK2 Veyron? meh lol

[ctallchris]

For that price i would expect to have space in the footwell supermodel with 5 star euro ncap protection and italian leather knee rest.

[TASS]

The most characteristic view of the car is missing...the front, seems an odd omission

[okgo]

Bentley and Porsche have called, they want their Panamera, and Continental GT back.

[was8v]

Think it looks great from the back.

But what does it look like from the front?

[marcosgt]

Oh come on - No-one REALLY thought VW bought Bugatti JUST to lose millions on the Veyron project did they?

Something more mainstream (and derivative - I see more Continental than Panamera myself) was always going to follow and this is it.

Not having a million quid to spare I'm not really core target audience, but it looks a lot better than a Maybach to me...

Classy interior - It looks a reasonably credible Rolls competitor to me based on photos alone.

What would Ettore think?

He's probably looking down upon us together with Enzo, thinking what the hell have they done to our cars.

When the first images were released I thought that the interior looked very cold. My opinion has now changed though; it looks great in these photos. I agree with the comment about not having a shot of the front. I thought that was strange too.

I can't believe the amount of exhausts on the car. For a million quid I'd expect at least ten.

[P4ROT]

I like the way the dials go all the way round to there original position if maxing out / using full power

In the past, Bugatti has been credited with designing some of most beautiful cars ever. Clearly, the Galibier has taken styling cues from the Atlantic. However, whilst taking some of the destinctive featues of earlier Bugattis, the Galibier is not like its predecessor, an achingly beautiful car, and inspiration to other stylists (eg the Jag XK120 coupe). as others have said, it just looks like so many other euro super-saloons e.g Porsche and Bentley.

[Picard]

not sure if this has already been stated but the back reminds me a Bentley GT from the side profile either way I am not a fan.

[torchy6]

Why would anyone prefer this over a Bentley? Love the interior but want it cream leather, that back window is just ugly. Concur with other views about no front picture and the exhausts, kind of like the illuminated spinners but are they worth a million quid??

[g3org3y]

Illuminated badges on the alloys...8 exhausts...!

Maybach has almost gone now . . .

Autoblog.com says: "If a recent report out of the UK is to be believed, Maybach is set to get the axe in the very near future. However, as a last hurrah, all three models from the ultra-luxury division of Mercedes-Benz (57, 62 and Landaulet) will receive facelifts this year. The last round of top-zoot Maybachs will debut in late April at the Beijing Motor Show. Expect the changes to the lineup to be very minor – new grilles and LED lights should be about the only differences from the sedans currently on sale."

. . . so there's room for a luxo barge like this Bug.

Anyone think that the back end looks like a Vauxhall Insignia crossed with some panpipes?

lol

[Kazlet]

The back end says it all...no idea what the front end looks like?!?!?!
