Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport: Not Quite a Convertible, Still the Fastest Roadster On Earth

The Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Grand Sport, the exciting new holder of the title of world’s fastest roadster, has made its exciting debut at the 2008 Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance. While other supercar-level convertible models such as the Lamborghini Murcielago LP640 Roadster go with a “true convertible” design with a fully stowable roof, the Bugatti goes a different route.

The Veyron Grand Sport offers open top motoring at the supercar level, though it is not a true convertible model. Bugatti determined that releasing a Veyron convertible would not provide the safety at high speed the Bugatti Veyron 16.4 is known for, so they opted for a Targa model in the Grand Sport, with a removable polycarbonate roof.

The Grand Sport roadster model is not simply a chop job on a standard Bugatti Veyron 16.4. Bugatti has taken great pains to ensure the structural rigidity of the Grand Sport, making changes throughout the canopy and adding structural enhancements for both stability at speed and safety in the event of a crash. The front windshield is taller with a more upright look, and carbon fiber longitudinal beams and other structural enhancements protect the occupants and the Veyron Grand Sport’s sheer speed capabilities.

And fast the Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Grand Sport is. An advantage to going with the targa top is that Bugatti has tuned the Grand Sport to maintain the hard top Veyron 16.4′s top speed of 253 mph when the roof is in place, with the top speed dropping to a still-ridiculous 223.7 mph! Imagine the wind blowing your face off at speeds like this, and you can get a feel for why the Veyron Grand Sport should be as exciting as any convertible or other roadster model on the market.

This is a Chanel-branded concept car designed by Jinyoung Jo, a car designer from university of Hong-ik in South Korea. We had fashion brands on mobile phones and of course we had them on cars like the Murcielago Versache or the Merc CLK Armani, but I think it’s the first time a car is designed from scratch to be a fashion accessory! Fiole through its motto, fashion art of vehicle, is an exceptionally designed proposal concept car for Chanel. Luxury brand buyers have appreciated this design just not for its functionality and practicality, the style, prestige and beauty was their main concern above all. Excellent sketches, decent design, interesting video staging and easy to read body shape of this car will make the execution process of this project smoother. The official logo of Chanel is presumed to be used at the rear end of the sidewall. With all the remarkable features, Fiole could be the best product among all other products that have been offered by Chanel.

Most kids freak out on Postman Pat car rides in amusement parks. But Perry Watkins of the U.K has actually turned ‘Postman Pat’ fun ride car into the world’s smallest car! The car has 39 X 26 inches dimension and can accelerate up to 40mph.

This tiny wonder is indeed a challenge to manufacturers of smaller and efficient cars. It wasn’t all that tough to create this singular vehicle. Perry simply purchased this ‘Postman Pat’ ride from eBay, fitted 150cc single cylinder, four stroke engine and remodeled it into smart street vehicle.

Perry even fitted a deceptive turnkey at the back of the car and made it really seem unbelievable that this tiny vehicle actually runs on gasoline.

The entire process took about 7 months, and as a finishing touch he stuck a cheekily oversize turnkey in the vehicle’s back.

Although the vehicle’s status as the smallest car has yet to be verified, Perry Watkins has already been credited with creating the world’s lowest car – the Flatmobile. We can’t wait to see what he builds next.
