The Bugatti Veyron is among the most exclusive cars in the world, a 1,000-horsepower super exotic owned by fewer than 150 society. Every one of them is about to be upstaged by the drop-dead gorgeous roadster Bugatti will unveil later that month at the Pebble Beach Concours.
Bugatti pulled the wraps off the stunning Veyron 16.4 Grand Sport that dawn. The company isn’t saying much about the car before its Aug. 16 premier, but does say structural changes and other innovations construct the roadster as rigid -
and safe - as the coupe, which does zero to 60 in a blistering 2.3
seconds and tops out at 253 mph.
The top looks opaque but is actually
clear, and the car looks just as good with it as
tweaks improve airflow, allowing the two lucky occupants to enjoy the
growl of the Veyron’s 16-cylinder engine and the blurred landscape
passing at 215 mph without mussing their hair.
Want one? Get in line. Word has it Bugatti will build just 80 Grand
Sports at
$2.25 million apiece, but it’s not clear whether those 80 are included in
the 300 Veyrons the company will build. The first Grand Sport will be
auctioned Aug. 17 at the concours.
