The first pic is the best. The car should also look good in red or metallic blue IMO.IP: Logged |

Well, it may be fast, but since I can't drive yet, I'll judge it by looks. Now, I've seen some really nice looking Bugattis, but the same guys have created one hunk-of-junk looking speed machine here. The spoiler looks really bad. And the rear lights! These things look like they should belong on the Power Rangers Space Vehicle. Yeah, it's extreme in a big way, but, as we've learned with the Aztec, extreme is not always beautiful or even nice.------------------

From the front, the Edonis's styling looks outdated (early to mid 90s, IMO), but I really like the rear-end styling. I think this will be yet another car to compete with the McLaren F1.------------------

This is a car from BOREL Engineering, not Bugatti. Also, the frontal design is not dated at all. You have probabbly not seencloseups of details from the car yet, but if I find some very big images, I will post them.v then you can see how unique and fresh the front is. Thise headlights would be impossible to produce on a early 90s car!------------------ Koenigsegg CC vs. Mclaren F1. Has the ultimate supercar met its match? IP: Logged |

This new car does appear to have all the right credentials - at least when it comes to the mechanicals - but what about the design? I can only offer an opinion, as they say beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but I do hope that the pictures I've seen thus far are of a disguised, pre-production prototype. I'm sorry, I have tried to appreciate this, apparently, pedigreed offering from Modena. But, from all angles, the car appears unbalanced and ungainly - more a collage of disjointed pieces designed separately (and on a computer, no doubt) by people who were in communicado, rather than a homogeneously fluid piece of sculpture. The reason why I even consider this an issue is that I think the hyper-exotics have to champion and exemplify design. They are at the pinnacle of automotive art, as well as performance, and they should set the scene for their lesser brethren and not just be "dramatic." All said, however, I do wish the car success.------------------

This car will meet with its success, because it will only be made into 21 versions, no more, no less, and the majority of those are spoken for. The car itself in my eyes is a very fresh look, and from the not so common large images of this car, I must say that you will change your mind. The rear lights are no longer bars, rather they are conventional round lenses but still behind the black mesh. The spoiler is to be redesigned, and the morrors are to be smaller and more aerodynamivc units.------------------ Koenigsegg CC vs. Mclaren F1. Has the ultimate supercar met its match? IP: Logged |

Yeah, financially the Edonis is probably already a success. Their sales targets are hardly to be considered ambitious.However, I'll have to see this design touch-up to pass judgement on it. ------------------
