Bugatti 16C Galibier | PREVIEW

Apparently, the pocket-draining USD $1.4M price tag French luxury car will not be going into production until 2015 the earliest. According to AOL’s Autoblog, the Bugatti 16C Galibier concept car will take a few years until we will see the final version of the four-door-super-sedan. Amongst the changes from what they thought to be the early specs include an entirely redone rear end, the engine was originally proposed as a detuned version of the Veyron’s 1000+ horsepower W-16 with twin superchargers in place of the quad turbos, will now be reboosted up past the four-digit mark.

Other features will include dramatic LED-headlights and taillights, a unique dual-opening hood, a main “spine” running the length of both the exterior and interior, an eight-speed automatic transmission, eight individual tailpipes, and a luxurious, yacht-worthy interior. These changes however, are hearsay and reportedly come from current Bugatti Veyron owners - who have reportedly seen, and sat in the Galibier concept car. The question is, with production of the standard Veyron now completed and only variants like the Grand Sport and Super Sport still finishing out their production runs, what will Bugatti do in the meantime?
