Am I the only person on here who thinks the Veyron is one of the worst looking cars ever?

I'm not slagging it off, I think its a lovely car but the mesh looks to me like a poor alternative to bespoke grilling or vents.
Putting a sheet of mesh behind a bumper, cutting it slightly larger than the aperture and screwing or glueing it down on the inside of the bodywork is a bit close to boy racer for me.
Even if that is not how they do it, its close enough that they really should have done something different. Look at the back of an F40, its mesh but its trimmed before it meets the panel. Front of a Murcielago, its black and subtle.

I dont know what owner said that because it was for sale for £50,000, which is a whole £750,000 less then Bugatti, cant comepare a car like the Jun lemon next to a car which has 3 times engine displacemnt and twice the turbos and costs that much.
One of them Jun suap lemons was clocked doing 234mph from a engine the size of a shoe box, jun supra clocked @ 249.292mph so i dont personally see the bugatti as an amazing car sorry.
They said the Bugatti is just there way of showing the world what they can do.
Im sure if they wanted to all the major car companys in the world could do there own veyron think of the carbon footprint of that motor
