I wonder if my wife and kids would mind living in that thing since selling our house would be the only way I could get it.

Because I want my expensive German uber-car to look like a "cheap" Japanese sports car.

Ok, maybe it goes the other way around...

No fan of the slant nose but I do like the battleship gray w/ black scheme.

Mandatory hotlink of proper nosed model. Also keeping with my little JH tribute.

RHD '74 3.0 RS chassis #99, owned by Lord Hesketh and driven by Hunt as part of his deal.

On sale now: Can be yours for 365k pounds.

Yah, I was never a fan of the slope nose either:

Yellow bird goodness. 470 peaky turbo hp in a 2600lbs car, that's some big balls driven right there.

If someone want to link that YouTube video of one of these going around the ring (driving by some famous driver if I remember correctly), it quite a wild ride.

I think the black one is a DP935 -- not a slant nose conversion.

Lots of those have a hinged roof.....you climb up on the pie crust slicks, lift the roof, and drop in. The only other option I can see is through the side window, nascar style.

it isn't a staggered V-12, so you still have not seen one.

it is a W-16. I assume that is a Veyron block?

Are there 4 other piston holes somewhere else?

Wow, you caught me. That thing played a trick on my eyes.

Those 4 other pistons exist only in my head. Sorry...

I shall pay penance by posting a hotlink of the W-16 engine.
