Not a fan of Artioli by any means, but lately I am liking the EB110 more and more – and the new Bugattis less and less. Not that I ever really liked them, mind.
At least the EB110 was very much... Italian

Seems the grille of the EB110 gets the most criticism but I’ve never minded it. I’ve always thought the design was a big departure from Gandini’s usual designs though

Well, Gandini’s proposal was very much messed with. I mean, the EB11 0, as it turned out, is not exactly a looker...
(Funny, I had forgotten about the little horseshoe bit.)
But yes, the mechanical bits are so interesting. The Veyron, Chiron, etc
should
be interesting, but somehow *everything* is so excessive that it in the end it becomes silly, in a very unfiltered German best-of-t

“very much messed with”. Yes! Seems this was an ongoing trend. They’d take a proposal, refuse it, and take the bits they wanted. I think the car above started as the proposal from
Bertone, though in this case I’m unsure if the changes were done by Bertone or Bugatti.

It’s got a clear theme, so to speak, instead of being a mishmash of bits.

that information. It’

I wouldn’t even know where to start

Looking at
images and thinking some more I’m struck by how horiz
ontal the design is. The nose and windshield form a typical wedge but there’
s almost no lift in the design
toward the rear
between the wheels. The flat almost shelf-like
beltline only acts to
accentuate
it
. Very tub-like,
and like you said
, sets a tone of
function firs
t.

Have you read PJ O’Rourke’s article ( Boom. Squeal. Boom. Squeal. Yip. Yip. Yip ) a b o u t d r i v i n g a EB110 ? I don’t think h e said anything particularly deep ( i t i s c e r t a i n l y n o t like F e r r a r i R e i n v e n t s M a n i f e s t D e s t i n y ) but it was absolutely hilarious.
While trying to find a suitable link (I read it on the net a couple of years ago) I came across this
http://yo.spc.free.fr/EB110_Registry.htm
Haven’t read it yet but i t l o o k s intriguing.

The EB110 is easily my favorite classic supercar from my youth. Well besides the obligatory Countach
