Yes, it is an absolutely breathtaking design. Anyone who says differently is simply being a whiny contrarian for the sake of being a contrarian. Read more

I was sort of prepared to not give an iota of interest to this thing when I first heard of it. Not since the unveiling of the first Veyron have I cared about any of its successors. But... this thing is just spectacular and different and wild and gorgeous and insane and intricate and I can’t even come up with more… Read more
