Bugatti EB 110 car -photo wallpapers; Megawallpapers.org: The Bugatti EB110 is an exclusive supercar from Bugatti Automobil SpA, the 1990s successor to one of the most celebrated Marques in automotive history. It was unveiled on September 15, 1991 in both Versaille and in front of the Grande Arche at La Defense in Paris, France exactly 110 years after Ettore Bugatti's birth. The car had a 60-valve, quad-turbo V12 [br]powering all four wheels through a six-speed gearbox. The 3.5 L [br](3499 cc) engine had a bore of 81 mm (3.2 in) and a stroke of 56.6 mm [br](2.2 in) and was capable of 553 PS (542 hp/407 kW) at 8000 rpm. [br]Acceleration to 100 km/h (62 mph) took just 4.5 seconds, and the car [br]topped out at 209 mph (336 km/h). The car used a double wishbone suspension, with the chassis built by Aerospatiale, an aircraft company, and made from carbon fibre. [br]Equipped with Gandini's famous lifting scissor doors, it had a glass [br]engine cover that provided a view of the V12 engine along with a [br]speed-sensitive electronic rear wing that could be raised at the flick [br]of a switch. Five pre-production prototypes with aluminum chassis were [br]built, followed by eight with composite chassis. Following these, it is [br]believed that only 95 GT and 31 SS production models were constructed. In 1992, a lighter and more powerful model with 600 PS (592 hp/441 kW) at 8000 rpm, the EB110 SS [br](either Sport Stradale or SuperSport) was introduced. This car was [br]capable of 219 mph (352 km/h) and 0-100 km/h (62 mph) in 3.2 seconds. At a price of more than US$350,000 for the SS model, the car wasn't going to be anything but exclusive. Early in 1994 Formula One driver Michael Schumaher purchased a banana-yellow EB 110 Super Sport, giving the company a great deal of publicity. Derek Hill, son of American Formula 1 Champion  Ohil Hill, was one of the three drivers on a team that competed with an EB 110 in the United States at the 1996 24 Hours of Daytona. Hard times hit the company in 1995 and, as result of chairman [br]Artioli's over ambitious purchase of Lotus in addition to the company's [br]quest to develop the EB112 a four door car, the company was bankrupt. Dauer Racing GmbH of Nuremberg, Germany, [br]bought the semi-finished EB 110 cars in the assembly plant plus the [br]parts inventory through the bankruptcy trustee. The remaining chassis [br]and a version of the engine were later developed by B Engineering into their Edonis sports car.
