Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Grand Sport

The challenge: to develop a roadster that would unite previously unattained features in one exceptional vehicle. A challenge Bugatti decided to take on.

The Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Grand Sport*) combines state-of-the-art technology and the beauty of a convertible.
Extreme precision and meticulous care for detail – those were the governing principles followed by the designers and engineers as they created the Grand Sport.

This maxim of perfection found its expression in the car’s technology: the Grand Sport’s engine, drive, and brakes all deliver superlatives in performance, acceleration, and deceleration. The choice of materials is another indicator of Bugatti’s discerning standards: titanium, carbon fibre, magnesium, aluminium – each component is made of the material with the lowest weight and the highest level of functionality. This is also true for the chassis safety features.

The Grand Sport’s body consists of a carbon fibre monocoque suspended from an aluminium frame in the front and a carbon fibre/stainless steel frame in the rear. In assembly, too, perfection is the guiding principle: the Grand Sport is manufactured lovingly and meticulously by hand. This guarantees that precise care is given even to the tiniest details.

This model was introduced in 1989 at the Chicago Auto Show. MX-5 was conceived as a small roadster - with light weight and minimal mechanical complexity limited only by legal requirements and safety requirements of modern technology, but a direct philosophical descendant of the small British roadsters of the 1960s such as the Triumph Spitfire, Austin-Healey Sprite, MG Midget and Lotus Elan.

The second-generation MX-5 (NB) was launched in 1998 and the model (NC) is now in production since 2006. It continues to be the best-selling convertible and in February 2011, 900 000 MX-5s have been built and sold around the world.

Porsche Boxster 986

Display of first-generation Boxster was greatly inspired by the Porsche 356 Spyder and Porsche 550 Speedster and Spyder. Boxster was released ahead of his brother, 996. Through
consultation with Toyota, Porsche is lowering manufacturing costs, and introducing large-scale sharing of components between models. 986 Boxster have the same cap, front wings, and units of the typical 'fried-egg' light as 996. Its original 2.5L M96 engine shared the same architecture with the 3.4L engine used in 996. Many believe the combination of style Boxster / 911 and build new components to reduce costs through sharing of saved Porsche from being acquired by another car company.

 All 986/987 M96 Boxsters using water-cooled, horizontally opposed (flat), six-cylinder. M96 is fully water-cooled engine was first used in non-production front-engined Porsche. In the M96 Boxster placed in the mid-engine configuration as opposed to the rear-engine placement in the 911s all.

The combination of M96 and mid-engine layout provides a low center of gravity, the smoothness of the whole rev range, near perfect weight distribution and neutral handling characteristics. Early production M96 engines have a small but significant number of engine failures due to cracked cylinder liner or slip, but because of minor redesign in 2000, this issue has been resolved.
