Rare is the car enthusiast who is not familiar with Bugatti, a storied marque through the years that has been resurrected in recent years and now produces the fastest, most powerful production automobile available, the Veyron. Ah the stuff automotive wet dreams are made of. Sadly it's $1.4+ mil price tag makes it out of range for even my seven figure salary*. A cursory search through Auto Trader does not even come up with any cheap used examples either.

All is not lost, though. Bugatti's striking new Volo looks to be a bit more attainable. It's striking lines and performance, while not quite at the Veyron's dizzying levels, will still impress. I think it would look good parked here, dontcha think?




^I dont ignore the decimal point like so many others do. ;)

Are the black fins supposed to keep the toast from spinning out?

Hmmm. I wonder about those fins too. Ettore Bugatti is said to have made his own pasta making machine from parts in the workshop. I'm still looking for that...

I think I'd rather get the job done by wrapping my bread around the exhaust manifold of a Veyron. :-)

(I think the Veyron looks like a black and red saddle shoe)

A "car enthusiast" who isn't familiar with the Bugatti name is no "car enthusiast"! I'm just sayin'....

Speaking of cars, I traded the Touring for a Sedan on Monday....

It still has 930 Watts- and without 4-wheel drive that's quite a handful!
