I've posted a few pics of the Bugatti Sang Bleu that comes to our Cars & Cafe and I've got a very close look at it. While the body design looks like a toad you have to understand that it's that way because it's necessary for what it does and that's go faster than any other car. While most exotics struggle to break the 200 mph barrier, the Veyron tops out at 256 mph. For a car to go that fast and still be able to drive to the grocery store is astonishing and a testament to it's design, form and function.

The Sang Bleu Veyron, which is the one parked next to the concept above or looks just like it, is constructed of the finest materials including carbon fibre and polished aluminum. The interior is very nice especially compared to something like a Mosler.

So it has to sacrifice some beauty over performance but when you understand what it can do it deserves respect and in a round about way becomes beautiful again.
