Carrera dominated the German markets in the 1960s and 1970s, due to using an additional third wire, and effective marketing, also at the nearby Nuremberg International Toy Fair.

In the 1970, Carrera offered 1:24, 1:32 and 1:60 scales for slot cars, and the slot-free "Servo" systems which allowed cars to switch lanes, guided by the guard rails on the outside. Due to the many systems offered, and fewer customers (Generation), Neuhierl had to sell his company in 1985, and took his own life. The new owners sold rather cheap products.

Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Grand Sport Brown Carbon Fiber & Aluminum


Everybody knows that the most luxurious and exclusive car manufacturer in the world is Bugatti.
Every time they release a new version of their elegant sports cars, everyone is amazed of what artistry they put into these supercars.

For the first time, a brown finish in visible carbon fiber which allows the sports car to shimmer in a specific light has been polished in the 2012 Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Grand Sport Brown Carbon Fiber and Aluminum.

The artistic orientation of this classic was a challenge for the production team since they wanted to produce a bronze-like effect on its car case when certain light falls into it.

A contrast is created by using polished aluminum with a 'Gaucho' colored leather interior to make the roadster more appealing and exquisite.

Performance

This new Bugatti Veyron boasts of its utmost torque of 1106 lbs-ft at 3,000-5,000 rpm, which makes it an extraordinary sports car. The engine's capacity is a 7.9 liter, 1200 HP at 6,400 rpm. It goes from 0 to 60 in 2.6 seconds, which makes it the fastest sports car available. The normal speed is confined to 375 km/h (233 mph) while the surmount speed is up to 410 km/h (255 mph).

Exterior


The Grand Sport has a roof spoiler which essentially minimizes banging of the interior and wind noise. In addition, a new windbreak has been developed in order to allow compact storage in the compartment when empty.

As a result of this innovation, it made the Bugatti Grand Sport exceptionally relaxed even when driving at faster speeds of about 200 km/h (124 mph).

The front is more distinguished with bigger air intakes which has a horizontal bar division that supports the artistic imagery of the car body. The headlights which are now black are made from Xenon and over the front and the rear view; an updated Park Distance Control system has been installed.
