Another amazing one-of-a-kind from Bugatti.
Bugatti. Has there ever been an automaker that earned so much buzz for building so few cars? In addition to creating the world’s fastest production car (the 253-mph Veyron 16.4) and the priciest (starting at $1,705,769), the Molsheim, France-based Volkswagen subsidiary has dazzled prospective buyers with one stupendous limited edition after another since the Veyron’s debut back in 2005—even though the supercar’s total lifetime production was long ago capped at a mere 300 examples. The polished metal and bare carbon fiber of the Pur Sang came first, followed by the ultrachic Fbg par Hermès, the all-black Sang Noir, the matte-finished Bleu Centenaire, and a colorful quartet of L’Edition Centenaire cars. The open-top Grand Sport stole the show at last year’s Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance, and this year, without missing a beat, Bugatti unveils the first special version of its rarer-than-rare roadster—and possibly the last limited-edition Veyron before the car’s successor bows in 2011 or 2012. – From Robb Report
