What's Wrong With This Picture: Bugatti Hatches a Family Car Edition

Bugatti’s newest concept, the Galibier, has hit the autoblogopshere, revealing a long, low, shapely . . . hatchback. Luckily it’s a really extra special opulent hatchback with eight exhaust pipes and a name jacked from an Alpine pass (and the Bugatti history books). Otherwise one might be tempted to call it rude things . . . like the grandchild of a Bentley Continental, the Chrysler 200C concept, a Rhodesian Ridgeback and a church organ. Start saving those millions!

  • Redapple2 Like the color but would never buy. Gladiator? Love them. (but some say they drive super wonky?)
  • Redapple2 Note to layman. Lifts change the resting angles of suspension components. Then add full length of travel in the duty cycle and now you are repeatedly doing things to the suspension was never design for. Failures are very common and fatal. Do it only if you are stupid.
  • Redapple2 Stampings vs castings>? If you go casting, you ve entered one of the most complex corners of manufacturing. In aluminum? 30 different popular alloys. 8 Core methods. 10 Casting methods. 5+ Heat treat options. Then we can talk about what metal to make the mold out of. The layman has no idea how complicated this gets.
