Will this be the object of many's affection when it goes into production?

AutoExpress reports:

The Galibier is back in black! Bugatti has released these moody new shots of its super-saloon concept which is expected to begin production when the Veyron is discontinued in 2012.

Previously shown in a two-tone blue and chrome paint-job, the four-seater now sports a solid black finish.
