Some select photos from inside the production facility.

Carbon carbon carbon. Lots of cooling capacity.

If you ever wondered what was inside the buttresses. Carbon everywhere. Turbos mounted in there tight.

On the test rack with only one more station to go (water test). Like the temporary wheels.

The car is such a space ship. Much of that stuff probably looks fairly familiar if you've seen the race car apart.

WOW nice photos DBK!
 
I can say with a reasonable degree of certainty that owners will receive these photos as their cars are in production. So cool. :willy
 
Incredible I was going to ask how in the world someone got those wheels on there because I tried my best to get CF wheels with the heritage but they wouldn't have any of it!!!! Don't know until you ask though. Hehehe

There truly isn't any other auto in the world like this, is there? I'm just shaking my head in amazement! Thanks for sharing DBK!
 
These pics are definitely worth at least 10,000 words each. Thanks DBK, you're the man!!
 
Great pics! Thanks!

Interesting, as low as the overall car height is, once you remove the bodywork, the apparent CoG appears to be pretty high in the chassis.
 
I was told by my Concierge this morning that she would be sending me picture of My built at each phase of production. Coming up pretty soon for production! If there half as good as these Dave posted I'll be a very happy owner. Thanks for posting Dave. Not much difference between race car and street car. Whoo, whoo!
 
There will be no "tinkering" with this one gentlemen. What an engineering marvel. Can't get over that tank and all the incredible engineering.

I hope you don't mean the water test that we seen on video??:eek

That will be very cool. These will be framed and up on the walls of the new owners I'm sure. Amazing piece of engineering art!
 
WOW there is a lot going on under the covers!! Will need certified experts to work on it for sure.
 
I'd like to learn about the inlet tubes (after the intercoolers) and their shape, especially the indentation in the top (where the writing is)
 
Absolutely amazing how much stuff is hidden away behind the body panels.

you mean the "will this car float for 100 yards" test
 
Can't believe how compact the tub/passenger cell looks without any other body work. Like those workers could do curls with one.

Actually, with the CF construction, maybe they can!
 
I think it looks more complicated than the racers.
 
incredible what is going on underneath! No wonder the car is 1/2 mil!!

That would be the one!

Maybe they saw the video of the Bugatti Veyron going into the water and wanted it to survive that scenario?
