Amazing! Very flamboyant stuff. Great that there are those kind of daring companies. I hope they sell enough.

This is the spice that keeps motoring interesting these days.

I like!

[cragswinter]

I've got to say I like it, but if you want something with those kind of retro looks & with the sports car performance to match...
Surely Morgan have been doing it for years & they have the heritage to match?

Or Boyd Coddingtons spin off, one of the best looking creations i have seen!

So maybe it's not 'real' and it's a bit silly, but My God, can't you see one cruising in the South of France, or along an LA boulevard! Love it.

Fairplay that is gay as f u c k

One of my Neighbors has a real Buggatti 57 Coupe (about 1 Million dollars worth ) and that the black rendering looks better in an improved sense. I wonder if it will have the same supercharged straight eight scream that the 57 has?

[tgx4776]

I love it.

[quattrophenia]

£300k!

I can imagine that looking good in a Sin or Gotham City type setting, but I'm not convinced about in the real world.

Beautiful piece of work.

Perhaps Morgan could diversify and offer a larger two-door four-seat 'touring coupe' using their sweepign art-deco design cues to similar effect. I understand they're doing well enough to consider it these days.

The designs from this company look great and unlike some other retro cars that came out of America--crap like Zimmer comes to mind--these cars seem to have some good engineering and craftsmanship as well. Very cool.

I was just wondering if Chip Foose had had something to do with this it does look a bit like his work

+1 Very cool idea.

I forgot to add that, as the article also mentions, one of the worst things about the car is that bloody awful name--Bugnotti.

Also, the article says that the company doesn't state which V12 engine the car uses. If you dig into the website, you'll see that that they mention a BMW V12, though they don't specifically say which one. They also mention that they ended up switching it for a Chevy engine because the wiring of the engine became too complex. It's not clear to me if they ever used a BMW V12 successfully in any of their cars or not.
