A freaking BUGATTI Chiron?!

I actually didn’t know what it was, but it sure caught my eye... so I slowed down to get slightly behind it (they were driving quite cautiously), and noticed the “3B” symbol on the back. Looked that up just now, and was like “dammm, no wonder it caught my attention!” But could it really be a Chiron? Those are like $3M, which is pricey even for the hotshots here in Silicon Valley. Is there another Bugatti model that isn’t QUITE as expensive, but looks similar?
The Chiron, Veyron, and EB110 are the only modern Bugattis, but are from different eras. There are no "cheaper Bugattis"

Note the large sweep that surrounds the entire side.


Veyron:

The sweep isn't anywhere near as large, and the headlights are different.


EB110

This one brought the Bugatti name back and was quite a bit different (very small horseshoe grille)

Yeah, definitely that one! Wow... as I said, even for Silicon Valley that is some serious $$$$.

Rolls-Royce Phantom VIII spied last Thursday night parked in a mid-town Manhattan garage. Did you think they were going to leave it on the street? *LOL*

Years ago I saw Jay Leno driving this classic car down the freeway. Have no idea what car it is but maybe someone can identify it?

I was paying property taxes ( Yikes!) at the township tax collector and when I came out I saw a funky looking crossover/coupe parked next to me. It was a BMW in that black and white color scheme I admit I like. It was an I 3 and I liked the body style although some say it is ugly. The interior was funky, too. It looked to have padded and thick door panels of which I'm in love with. The dash looked weird. Like there was a recessed basket into it with two screens low in it. I like an unobstructed view over the dash. And it had suicide doors like on the Honda Element. I like those, too. It reminded me of an Element crossed with a coupe. Clunky kind of but distinctive.
So I researched it and was horrified to see it was an electric vehicle and widely criticized for being way too pricey for what you get. Too bad. I'm in a Kia Soul so my tastes may be somewhat favoring the off beat. But at a third of the price my car was a way better value. The BMWs tires were ridiculously narrow, that had to make it handle poorly in snow.
