That's interesting.

Not sure on the heartbeat part. But the Lumilor paint and the ability to activate/deactivate section has a lot of cool potential.

Whenever you use forceful and overt verbal persuasion to try to convince others to see things your way, they're probably not listening to what you say, Instead they're looking for every error in you your logic and mistakes in your facts, all the while constructing counterarguments. Worse still, they don't merely believe you're wrong; they need you to be wrong in order to protect the status quo. And since the final judge exists in their own head, you lose every time. - The Influencer

That's interesting. I had no idea that it actually moved under its own power. I figured it was just a model.

Makes me wonder what's underneath. Leftover Veyron development parts? Some Gallardo or R8 that was scheduled to be scrapped? I'd really like to see how they built that thing, and if it could do more than drive between a truck and a turn table.

Rumor is VW loses a HUGE amount of money on each Veyron. The whole thing was basically a vanity project for VW CEO Ferdinand Piëch. Even the factory development cars cost VW a truckload of money to build. I don't think they'd waste one for a video game concept car.

I'll bet that's part of why there's no construction photos of it. My money says there's Gallardo or R8 bones under there.

Quick little video about the Bugatti Vision GT.

http://www.youtube.com/v/zgsztcaNijI[/youtube]

There's a couple of really quick shots of the car being put together, but nothing substantial. The only thing I can tell is that the rear brakes are in the same position as the Veyron, but it's missing the electronic parking brake.

With all the carbon fiber and work they put into this, I really have to wonder if it's a really early Chiron test chassis.
