A Father Bought Bugattis For Each Of His Six Kids. And for good measure, he bought two for himself…

When I was on the 2002 Escalade program the Cadillac marketing guy would come in every week with notable sales.

"Jennifer Lopez got one this week" or "Martha Stewart got one".

One week he reported "BB King got his; a black one". (I asked if Eric Clapton was going to drive him around in it. Nobody got it).

The multiples were my favorite. I don't remember who specifically but there were a couple celebs that got two at a time.

My all time favorite though, was some Shah or Shiek in the Middle East: He got two in each of the available five colors for a total of ten - one for each of his wives.

Isn't it amazing to think that automobile is 116 years old...

Scoops ??? You referring to, what appears to be, air inlets below the turn signals ??

The air inlets are above and below the turn signals. One of the few "Ram Air" systems that actually worked - even at low speed.

On 23 July 1966, Don Wetzel – an ex-military pilot – put the machine to the test on a flat, straight stretch of railway between Butler, Indiana, and Stryker, Ohio. The results spoke for themselves: the Black Beetle reached a speed of 296 km/h (183 mph). Interviewed by GE Reports in February 2014, the then 82-year-old Don revealed that the train had gone even faster and was actually slowing down when it was timed: “On my second run our speed reached 196 mph [315 km/h] and we were decelerating when we went through the timing traps… Everybody thought that it was quite funny that we set a world record while decelerating.”

With the record in the bag, the boosters were removed from this unique vehicle and re-employed on snow blowers. The Black Beetle never went into production and remained an experimental one-off. But that day in 1966 proved conclusively that high-speed rail travel was possible using existing technology.
