    Talking A Day with a Bugatti.

    In the Summer of 2011, I got the privilege to work alongside a Toronto-based automotive blog for a photography/film shoot and test-drive of the first Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport in Canada. This being my first car-shoot, I was floored. Before the shoot, I always knew that the Bugatti was fast and expensive, but I had no idea how intricate the engineering behind this car was. This opportunity gave me a whole new appreciation for the automotive world, and makes me even more grateful to get to be a part of it.

    Although most of the material I had was signed off to the automotive blog via contract, I had enough left to make a decent blog-post.

    You can live in a car, but you can't drive a house.

    Cool stuff, Adam!

    Just an FYI, though: That wasn't the first Veyron Grand Sport to visit Ontario. A silver one came to town for a few days back in 2009.

    Ah, my mistake. The Bugatti rep mentioned it was the 'first of its kind' in Ontario. Maybe he meant a white one haha.

    That's the one! It's gotten quite a bit of attention traveling around with Bugatti's reps. The last time I spotted it was in Cali.
