The car wrap specialists from SkinzWraps had this Bugatti Veyron on display, which was a collaboration project between them and the Epson printer ink company. The design you can see here is beyond wild, and goes to show that any type of skin for your car is possible. All you have to do is send them your idea and they can come up with a wrap to fit your car perfectly. The company even has a new FastSkinz vehicle wrap material that is said to make cars more efficient. Supposedly, these skins reduce drag to improve fuel economy and reduce emissions. We’ll just have to see how this forms over the next couple years. Maybe all future production vehicles will be wrapped instead of painted, who knows?

At the VW Ehra-Lessien proving ground, the Bugatti Veyron Super Sport has set the new production car land speed record with a smashing number. Hitting 267 mph, the new Bugatti world record thrashed the previous 256.23 mph time set by the SSC Ultimate Aero in Nevada back in 2007. Beating the previous world land speed record by 11 mph is unbelievable, but then again, the Bugatti Veyron Super Sport is an amazing sports car. So, what exactly were the improvements to this Bugatti that previous models were left without?

After several pictures and a made up story of how this 1.6 million dollar Bugatti Veyron crashed in to a lake, we now have video proof of the accident! The owner, Andy House claimed that he was distracted by a low flying pelican that caused him to crash into the lake. This video shows no evidence of a pelican, and an updated report claims that he had dropped his cell phone. Hmm…the whole story is ironic because Andy House owns Performance Auto Sales in Lufkin, Texas and the company specializes in repair and restore of crashed exotics! Is it possible he did it on purpose for some extra promotion of his company? I highly doubt it since the Bugatti Veyron is one of the most expensive cars in the world. Hit the jump for the video and aftermath pictures.
