There's just one thing lingering on my mind...

How's Doug gonna fit into an Autozam AZ-1?

The β€œdeleted scenes” after the Doug Scoreβ€¦πŸ˜‚

If the positions were switched, u/Doug-DeMuro would have made an immediate U-turn and followed this thing to the next stoplight to ask the driver where they found an EB110.

Wow. At this point its no longer "what cars has Doug reviewed" and now its "what cars hasn't Doug reviewed".

Its really amazing to see all these iconic and rare supercars like this.

I wonder if the f40 driver was thinking the same thing when he saw the Bugatti

this is a 1993 bugatti eb-110 and it's the bugatti that no one knows about everybody knows the veyron and the shiron but this was bugatti's supercar in the 1990s it has a turbo v12 and less than 150 of these were built for the entire planet and today i'm going to review this one [Music] before i get started be sure to check out cars and bids which is my enthusiast car auction website with cool

listing using the discount code birthday to celebrate cars and bids one year anniversary so let's talk eb110 you probably know bugatti as a brand under the volkswagen umbrella but that wasn't always the case bugatti was originally founded as a french company it built some of the world's most extravagant cars and it went bust in the 1950s in the 1980s the bugatti brand was purchased by an italian entrepreneur who decided to revive bugatti in italy so he built a big factory in italy and created a supercar the eb110 that doesn't sound as crazy as you think because the 90s were full of like startup attempts at making a supercar you had vector with first the w8 and then later the m12 jaguar tried it out with the xj220 acura gave it a shot with the nsx you had the weird sizzetta marauder thing and probably the best known 90s first try at a supercar was the mclaren f1 now world famous so reviving bugatti with a new supercar made sense and this car was perfect for the job it had a v12 only 3.5 liters but quad turbocharged which was insane back then and still is this car had over 550 horsepower which was a huge figure for the time and it had all-wheel drive which was incredibly rare on supercars back then it also had the famous bugatti brand name well known for building some of the most amazing cars on the planet only decades earlier unfortunately it all came to a crashing halt in the mid 90s not enough people bought the eb-110 and the italian version of bugatti went bust after making less than 150 eb-110s for the entire world and of course you know the rest of the story in the late 90s volkswagen acquired the bugatti brand name and set out trying to make the fastest car on the planet which they did but for a while in the 90s bugatti was italian and they made this the eb-110 and today i'm going to review it first i'm going to take you on a tour of this car and show you all of its interesting quirks and features there are many then i'm going to get it out on the road and drive it and then i'll give it a dug score all right i'm going to start the quirks and features of the eb110 with simply climbing inside which is already an unusual process you walk up to the car and you might think this is the door handle there's a little slot where you can put your fingers in and open up the door but there's no handle there instead the door handle is located down here under this like crease on the outside of the door you have to reach down and pull on this little latch and that unlatches the door and then you can put your hand into this little finger slot on the side of the door and open it up and once you've done that the door of course opens upwards scissor doors like you would expect for a serious exotic car which this is and then you are welcomed into the eb110 now the first thing you see with the door open is of course the door sill where you have bugatti printed in very large letters the old school bugatti font letting you know you're not climbing into just any supercar this is a very special one now also in this door sill area you have a few other items one is this little latch next to the seat you can see it has the bugatti logo on the bottom you pull that and it releases the cover over the engine compartment we will get to that in a minute first i want to talk about these buttons down here you can see in the dorsal area next to the driver's seat now when you close the door these buttons aren't covered by the door they're still available to the driver and they have some interesting functions probably the most unusual button down here is got a picture of a car with a door on it with arrows pointing up or down so maybe thinking do those buttons raise or lower the doors automatically and the answer is no actually they don't do that but they do unlatch the door if you're sitting in the car and you want to get out you press this little door up button and it's like a window switch but for the door the door unlatches and then you can push it open the rest of the way interestingly on the driver's side of the ed-110 you have that switch for both sides so you can unlatch the passenger side door if you want to in case your passenger just can't figure it out you want them to get out of the car you can unlatch their door and they can climb out and i suspect this happens quite often opening the passenger side door because the little diagrams showing which door these buttons open show images of the car corresponding to the side door they open but it's a little difficult to tell unless you look closely exactly which door you can open but basically those are your door openers in the eb-110 they look like power window switches but actually they open up the doors now it's worth noting this is an electronic release so if the battery fails it won't work to open up the doors you're probably wondering what would happen then are you trapped in your eb110 no you are not there is a second emergency door handle here on the door panel you can pull this open and that will mechanically or manually open the doors and then you can climb out so even if these buttons fail or if the battery's dead you can still get out of your eb-110 thankfully now one interesting thing with this door button obviously if you push up that unlatches the door and then you can push the door up and get out but there's also a down button which i'm not really sure what it does if you press it you can hear the door makes a little sound like it's latching or unlatching but it doesn't seem to have an effect you'd think maybe if you get the door close to latching and you press that button it would completely latch it but it doesn't seem to do that i'm not really sure what exactly it does now you might think that would be the door locks but in fact that is controlled with this button at the top marked block the power locks of this car controlled with the block button you press up to unlock the doors you press down to lock the doors using the block button not sure why they chose the word block for the door locks but that's what it does you want to lock the doors you press block now it's also worth noting in this vicinity you also have two other controls these are seat controls of course the upper one moves the backrest forward or backwards the driver's seat and the other one is for lumbar support if you want to move the seat forward or backwards the whole seat there's actually a little latch on the bottom you pull that and then kind of throw your weight like most car seats and that will move the seat forward or backwards but these little controls power operate the backrest and the lumbar support and it's worth noting you have this same switch panel over on the passenger side with all of the same controls except the passenger side switch panel only has a door opener button for the passenger door the driver side has both passenger and driver door but the passenger side only has the passenger door button all the other buttons are the same including the famous block button to lock or unlock the doors but anyway next we move further inside the eb110 i want to start with the steering wheel you can see it's a fairly simple nardi steering wheel it has nardi imprinted in the leather at the bottom and of course the bugatti logo imprinted in the leather right in the middle it looks very simple fairly sports car like not necessarily crazy super car like but it is a cool looking steering wheel now in the center you have the horn pad and of course you press the horn and it is insane like a lot of italian-built supercars in this era take a listen to the eb-110 [Music] horn [Music] next also in this vicinity we move on to the gauge cluster and if you've watched a lot of my videos these gauges might look familiar that's because they were also used in lamborghini models at the time i believe the diablo used these gauges so they probably shared the same supplier which was fairly common for italian supercars back in the day the same is also true of the stocks coming off the steering column the turn signal stock and the wiper stock were also used in lamborghini models and probably some other italian cars of the era again not all that surprising and not surprising to see those in this car and by the way speaking of the gauges one quirky little item to note when you turn the key to accessories obviously all the warning lights turn on like they do in every car but one warning light i love in here is this one with a steering wheel with a little drop of liquid on it obviously this is to let you know that like your steering fluid is low or something like that but what a great way to show it just a little steering wheel liquid it totally makes sense and gets the point across i like it it's kind of charming but anyway back to the subject of shared parts next we move into the center control stack and the climate controls these are very familiar looking they were shared with a lot of cars from this era of both exotic cars and regular everyday cars very simple climate controls that again shared the same supplier and they were used in a lot of different vehicles and again not that surprising to see it in this car since bugatti the upstart italian brand wasn't going to create their entirely separate new climate controls just for this car it was easier to use controls from a supplier now interestingly the climate vents in this car are kind of unusual you can see on the vents themselves there are two switches the switch on the side controls the air going up or down of course since the slider goes up or down the switch actually mounted on the vent moves the air left or right but the weird thing here is you can see the vent on the left the little slider can only move the air over to the right and then if you move it to the left it sort of stops in the middle the vent on the right can move the air to the left but if you move it to the right it stops in the middle so really if you're driving this car and you want air blowing on you you're going to be using the vent on the right to move air to the left because the left vent doesn't actually do that kind of an interesting quirk of the eb110 now next up also in this vicinity next to the climate controls you have the window switches you can see these little individual square buttons are the window switches same type of buttons they use for those little controls on the door sill but the ones mounted here control the windows now you have obviously driver side window and passenger side window and when you put the windows down they are tiny a very small portion of the actual windows in this car rolls down it's only this little piece under this black trim on the window the reason for that is because of the design of the car you can see the door curves on the side and so the entire window couldn't go down and like curve with the door so they cut out as much as they possibly can to get the window to roll down as much as possible but in the eb110 that's all the window rolling down that you get this was also common in sports cars in the 90s the mclaren f1 was also like this the subaru svx very famously but it's always interesting to see a window within a window and only the smaller bit actually rolls down next up another interesting item in this vicinity is this switch here which turns on a cooling fan so when you're driving the car around especially in stop and go traffic you don't want to get too hot you turn on the cooling fan with this switch i don't think this switch was factory installed but it may have been or it may have been installed by an owner later who wanted to increase reliability driving the car around you could manually turn on the fan to make sure it wouldn't overheat in traffic which makes sense now also in this vicinity you have two gauges in the center here you can see over on the left you have the fuel gauge which has the bugatti logo inside of it and over on the right you have a clock and there's this little blue dial in between the two and of course that would be the adjuster for the clock if you want to change the time in your eb110 now next up speaking of the fuel gauge in this car let's talk about how to open the fuel door it's kind of an interesting process you could look all around this car trying to find the release for the fuel door and you wouldn't really find it unless you looked on the ceiling it's right here this little gas pump dripping you pull that and that opens the fuel door now it's on this little panel of other release switches that also have other functions to the left of the fielder you have the parking lights and then two sets of fog lights front and rear to the right of the fuel door you have the abs switch except that's not actually a switch don't pull that that's just a warning light so you have four switches in here and then one warning light that looks like a switch but at least there's no blanks now next up also on the ceiling in this car you can see here you have a lighting assembly in here interior lights the light over on the left is pretty simple you just press this button it turns on sort of a general interior light like you might want if you're getting in or out of the car the other light though is more interesting you press this little button and it would turn on this thing it's not working right now the bulb is probably burned out but you move this around and you could shine a map light on wherever you wanted it so if the passenger is sitting here and wants their map illuminated they can actually move this little movable light to show what they're looking for same deal over on the driver's side that is a pretty cool idea instead of having individual mac lights driver and passenger just have one that can be focused exactly where you want it like a spotlight and next up we move on to the seats in this car which are kind of interesting they're fairly grippy looking sports seats as you can see especially the bottom part is intended to keep you in place a lot more than most sports cars from this era the sport bucket seats hadn't really become common at this time one interesting thing about these seats though you can see the bugatti logo is on the side of the seats on the side of the headrest you have the bugatti logo stitched in there looks nice on the actual middle of the seats where you'd normally find the manufacturer logo you have the seat company's logo there which is definitely an odd decision never really seen that before it's almost like the seating or upholstery supplier kind of takes precedence over the manufacturer it's weird to see that logo there instead of the bugatti one now if you move into the center console you can also see storage panels in here the one in the front is the cigarette lighter and ash tray of course and the one in the back is just a center storage panel where you could store stuff although not much stuff because it's not very deep but at least you have some storage in this car also speaking of storage another item in here is the glovebox lid that's over on the passenger side of course you turn this little switch and you can open up the glove box and again a little bit more storage which is important as i will demonstrate later when i show you the rest of this car's storage capabilities but anyway there's your glove box and you can of course put stuff in there like most other cars one other interesting interior item would be the rear view mirror you look at it looks like a fairly standard rear view mirror although below it you can see three settings off low and high i assume this is for rear view mirror dimming you can turn it completely off or you can have like a low dimming setting or a higher setting which is pretty good for super cars because you're so low that lights are always getting in your mirrors and blinding you so you might want to turn up your dimmer which you can in the eb110 but anyway next up we're gonna move under the hood and so we pull that little latch next to the driver's seat like i showed you before and that pops open the engine cover so next up let's talk engine although let's start with the engine cover now once you've unlatched it you can see it's in this position about an inch off the car and then you can just lift it up there's no additional release or anything like that you just pop open the engine cover and it stays open in kind of a strange way you push it all the way to the top sort of the max that it can go and then it kind of locks in place and you just leave it and then it reveals the engine this car has a pretty special engine first thing just to look at it's beautiful and surprisingly large considering it's only 3.5 liters you can see v12 and bugatti is printed right on the engine in the metal it looks fantastic gorgeous this is a view that not too many people get to see now the cool thing about this car is it is quad turbocharged that is not common now there are very few cars that have more than two turbochargers all the newer bugattis do as well but it was especially a crazy thing back in the early 90s a quad turbocharged supercar seemed totally absolutely ridiculously insane and indeed it was like i said this car made over 550 horsepower back then which was a huge figure and it just had a much larger engine than a lot of the rivals at the time like for instance the jaguar xj220 with its mere six cylinder the eb110 had a smaller number in its name but a much bigger engine and of course you want to close the engine compartment it's just the opposite procedure from opening it you just kind of push it up a little bit which unlocks it and then you can just put it down and close it and then you've closed the hood in a bugatti eb-110 and next up a few other interesting things on the outside of the eb110 i want to start with the fuel door which is over here on the passenger side now i already showed you that you pull that little release in the ceiling inside the car and that pops open the fuel door on the passenger side as you can see but there is a second fuel door over on the driver's side that fuel door is a mirror image of the one over here on the passenger side but when you pull that release in the car only the passenger side fuel door opens so how do you open the other flap whatever that is well you have to go into the engine bay there's a little loop back there you can see like a little string at the very corner of the engine bay you pull on that and open up the second fuel door in this car and indeed it is a second fuel door in this car you pop open this flap you can see a little cap inside you unscrew to add fuel just like over on the passenger side you have two separate fuel doors and fuel filling areas in this car now i'm not sure if this car has two fuel tanks but i will say that when you start the car temporarily all the warning lights light up you can see two different low fuel warning lights one on the left and one on the right so my guess is there are two separate tanks and it will let you know if your left tank is low or if your right tank is low with two separate low fuel warning lights that is a pretty crazy thing it's also crazy that one fuel door is so accessible and easy to open with the little switch inside and the other one you have to dig all the way into the back of the engine compartment to get it open in order to fill your second fuel tank i also love when you close the fuel filler flaps in this car you can see mounted on top of them you have like a naca duck to direct air into the back of the car so it's not just a fuel filler flap it also is like an air channel to get air into the engine one other thing i like in this area you can see right above the fuel flap you have eb110 this car's like logo although if you looked at it like this you would think this car was called the 110 eb i'm not sure why they styled it that way but that was like the logo for the eb110 and this is the only place on the outside of the car where it actually says eb110 you have it on the passenger side and you have the same thing over on the driver's side in the same place that's how you know you're looking at the eb110 and next up another cool thing on the outside of this car is the wheels i have always loved this wheel design this was the original wheel in the eb-110 now the eb-110 is maybe better known for these later wheels that came out in a later model but i always liked these they were so distinctive and characteristic for this car they are also center lock wheels made by bbs center lock wheels were not common at the time this car came out in exotic cars they were pretty common on race cars but most road cars did not have them obviously they become more common in the years since but this is a very early adoption of a centerlock wheel very unusual item the eb110 had it and next up we move up to the front of the ev-110 and you can see my very favorite design element on this entire car and that would be the grill you can see this little grill curved on the top flat on the bottom this was an old school bugatti thing bugatti models in the 1920s 1930s had this grill design and so bugatti revived in the 1990s and italy wanted to keep that little piece of heritage obviously it doesn't really work with the front end of this car so they made it really tiny and it still has the distinctive characteristic bugatti grill now when volkswagen revived bugatti again in the 2000s with the veyron they put this grill front and center in the veyron again much larger but you can see it here very small a little nod to bugatti's heritage obviously they could have just made these lines go across the front of the car and not do this but they did it as a little reminder of bugatti's heritage and i think that is a very very cool design element on this car if you notice it it's a very small touch now one other thing you notice up here is this flat front end tremendously flat in fact going up to the windshield it's all just sort of one flat piece going down to the front of the car very much a wedge shape up here and that is also true of the headlights very flat and angled up here almost like a triangle and it's kind of strange the turn signals are in the corner in this little side area very small little bugatti turn signals the headlight housing of course just has the headlights and the brights the high beams and that's this little piece in the center and the actual housing itself and those are the headlights in a bugatti eb110 kind of interesting you don't often see how those function you also notice up here you have one windshield wiper only one windshield wiper on this car unless you look closely because actually there are three windshield wipers in this car if you look really closely you can see one two three individual wiper blades all on the same wiper arm so it looks like this car has a single wiper like a lot of sports cars did at the time but actually it has three separate wipers all angled sort of different directions in order to wipe off as much window as possible when it rains so you could continue your performance driving that is a very cool and interesting quirk now as for this front end it does in fact open there's a little latch on the driver's foot well like for a lot of cars you pull it and then this pops open but you can see when it's open there's no storage in here you have the battery here a few other mechanical components but no storage at all this is important because i already showed you the rear of the car and there's no storage back there either in the engine compartment some cars have like a half engine half cargo area not this no storage in front no storage in back and that's why the glove box i showed you earlier is important that's the largest storage space you have in the eb110 you better not try to go anywhere with luggage in one of these because it won't fit unless you don't have a passenger now it may surprise you to learn that this car doesn't have storage back here because behind the engine compartment there is this panel and you would think that is a trunk or a cargo area but in fact it is the wing you might be wondering why doesn't this car have a wing some ev110s you see pictured have a wing up but this car it's been down the whole time there's no button inside that i showed you to put a wing up so what do you do the answer is the wing goes up when you turn the car on so you turn the car on and automatically the wing goes up you turn the car off like it is now obviously the wing goes down so every time you see an eb110 pictured with the wing up that means it's on and every time you see one picture with the wing down that means it's off or broken but in this car it works just fine and it goes up every time you turn it on one other thing i like back here is the tail lights you can see these ovals on the back nothing particularly special you have turn signals in one corner brake lights in another area reverse lights in another area and there are lines going through horizontal lines going through the center of these ovals i guess to make the rear light housing just look a little bit more exciting and unusual and special but that's the rear lighting db110 not particularly exciting or thrilling compared to modern lighting standards you also have like holes back here individual rectangles several of them on the sides of the license plate and above it obviously those are for grill for air flow to cool the car down it's just interesting to see they didn't just have one big grill piece instead they went with several different rectangles on the outside kind of a strange design choice and finally let's talk about bugatti the brand most people know bugatti as a french company and indeed it is a french company and it was founded as a french company and it created some of the most extravagant beautiful cars in the world in the 19s 20s and 30s as a french company but in the 1950s the original bugatti went bust and it was purchased by an italian entrepreneur in the 1980s to create a new bugatti supercar with the bugatti brand except in italy he built a factory in the italian town of kempo galeano and that factory is still standing today with bugatti logos all on the outside and covered in vines and growth because it's been abandoned for decades basically what happened is the eb110 built in the factory came out went on sale and it did sort of okay michael schumacher bought one which was a big deal for the car and they even came out with a later super sport version that had more power but not enough people bought this car to keep the company afloat and eventually it just went bust now one interesting thing about bugatti when the company ended there were a lot of spare parts and spare cars and spare engines sitting around and most of them were purchased by a german company called dower who continued to make eb-110s as the dower eb110 they made a few more units after bugatti production stop so there are bugatti eb110s and then there are dour eb110s that came a little bit later which is kind of an interesting fact about this car but anyway less than 150 110s ended up being made before the company went bust a short-lived experiment to revive bugatti in italy before volkswagen bought the brand and revived it with their roots in france the eb-110 quite a special car and indeed the bugatti that most people aren't aware of and so those are the quirks and features of the bugatti eb-110 now it's time to get it out on the road and drive it i am very nervous let's do it all right driving the eb110 this is a truly amazing experience i've wanted to do this pretty much since i started filming these videos like eight years ago done the xj220 done the mclaren f1 this is like has been for me a complete holy grail car that i've barely even seen let alone been around and driven so first thing you notice when you get inside here the pedal box is pretty tight um quite tight in fact you really want to be wearing driving shoes which i'm not i'm able to do it but it's pretty tight and that's something you'd want to be doing if you were driving this car frequently it's also relatively tight the seating position in here your knees and the steering wheel and that sort of thing but it's not that bad i've certainly driven 80s 90s supercars that are worse now one interesting thing that i'm finding is that it's actually a fairly easy clutch um i was expecting it to be very very heavy like a ferrari test road so a lot of cars like this from this era had pretty difficult clutches but not this one um this one just kind of goes in and it actually feels pretty smooth and sweet same deal with the shifting it actually feels pretty easy and pretty nice to use the car itself actually also feels surprisingly well put together you know a lot of these older 90s cars especially from orphan brands it's it's hard to find parts it's hard to keep them in nice shape this car idles very smoothly which is a surprise i'm i'm it feels like a nice obviously it is a nice well-kept car but it certainly feels like it as well you wouldn't really think that necessarily of an eb110 considering how difficult it is probably to find parts and keep these cars running correctly can't believe we're driving ev1 unbelievable i the newer bugattis are very cool and they do very very well in youtube videos and everybody's into the ocean they're shiron veyron but to me especially growing up in the 90s i mean this was such a mythical car you know you heard about xj220 and eb-110 like these were sort of the dream special cars you never saw them and you still don't ever see them really yeah shifting is surprisingly easy in this car i'm actually shocked by just how easy it is to ship gears it's really not so bad if you can fit which is a little tight for me but um but doable but the the steer the clutch is just like fine it's just like totally acceptably normal the the shift lever it like drives pretty well maybe i shouldn't be surprised it's a very expensive car at the time and michael schumacher bought when he probably knew what he was doing but i don't know surprises me also just surprised how smooth it is i can't believe i'm driving this thing on the road this is a terrifying experience this is one of those cars where if you if you damage it you're not going to be able to replace it you damage it you make the news it's very different from a modern supercar where it's just you know a 488 an expensive car but they're around this thing is like part of history car history i am really surprised at how civilized this car is back in the 90s there were so many ridiculous half-hearted attempts at exotic cars i was just kind of wondered what this one was like but it actually feels fairly reasonable in terms of the driving experience at least the steering actually feels pretty good also um obviously no power steering but that means good steering feel in this car and so it is pretty precise and it responds relatively quickly to inputs which surprises me all this intimidation about this car i think is largely based on the production numbers and the fact of what bugatti became later obviously making the craziest fastest most expensive cars in the world so you're just really nervous but ultimately it drives like a pretty good sports car and they probably benchmarked some pretty good 90s 80s late 80s early 90s sports cars to create this book i keep driving this thing around i'm coming up to like stop signs and stuff and people don't really take notes like they notice it because it's like a weird sports car but if i saw one of these things i would absolutely next level lose my mind if i saw some crazy guy driving an eb-110 around la it would change my year i really can't believe how it idles it idles relatively normally it it doesn't feel like it's you know i've driven diablos and stuff in this area they kind of countaches feel like they're about to explode whenever you're at a stoplight unless they're really well maintained and even then but this car seems pretty nice oh it does seem to do well even as you get into higher higher revs i'm not going to go crazy with it it's a very special car but um it accelerates reasonably well and it sounds pretty good doing it and it feels very smooth and i do like the steering the heavy steering feel feels cool the manual steering and so that's the bugatti ev110 this is an amazing car i have wanted to review one pretty much ever since i started my youtube channel eight years ago in fact i've wanted to get up close to one of these my entire life and i'm thrilled that i finally had the chance this is truly truly incredible it was a once in a lifetime experience i hope you enjoyed it i certainly did anyway now it's time to give the eb110 a doug score starting with the weekend categories and styling the eb110 is striking and breathtaking but it's not really beautiful very 90s special but not gorgeous and it gets a 7 out of 10. acceleration bugatti apparently claimed 0-60 in the low 3-second range so it gets a 9 out of 10. handling is sharper than i expected you think these cars are so intimidating but this one seemed engaging enough and it gets a 7 out of 10. fun factor is reasonably high given the performance level here and it gets an 8 out of 10. finally cool factor and this one's obvious this car is cooler than almost any other the bugatti before bugatti and it gets a 10 out of 10 for a total weekend score of 41 out of 50. next up are the daily categories and features this car doesn't have much and it gets a 2 out of ten comfort is low the interior is surprisingly tight and i barely fit add that to the usual supercar comfort issues like ride harshness and difficulty getting in and out and it gets a two out of ten quality is only okay a lot of the interior stuff is shared with other italian cars from this era and kind of generic and of course reliability is a big question mark so it gets a 4 out of 10. practicality is a disaster there's no storage and this car is so rare and valuable you'd be afraid to drive it anywhere and it gets a 1 out of 10. finally value and i must say i think these are undervalued they sell for less than a million dollars and i think given bugatti's reputation and this car's rarity they simply should be more expensive it gets an 8 out of 10 for a total daily score of 17 out of 50. added up and the doug score is 58 out of 100 which places it here against relevant cars this is actually an amazing chart to look at because i've now reviewed the majority of these 90s supercars so you really get a good comparison of them the mclaren f1 reigns above all of course but otherwise the 959 is the best on paper but i personally would rather have an f40 or an f50 the eb110 beats out the vector w8 and the jaguar xj220 though as it should the bugatti is better built than the vector and it drives better than the jag but all of these cars are 1990s poster icons [Music] boy f40 and eb110 i can't believe people don't notice it but then again this isn't a modern supercar you know you
