Brother, Can You Spare a Bugatti?

Call it a sign of the times: no less than 18 ultra-exclusive Bugatti Veyrons are currently for sale via online global luxury marketplace JamesList. Obviously what seemed like a good investment for some during the economic boom is proving either an expensive liability these days or a way to raise some much-needed cash. The sheer number of the supercars being offered up is even more astounding taking into account the fact that as of last March, although over 200 Veyrons had been sold, only 132 had actually been built. The Veyrons on offer via JamesList range from a relative bargain of a 2005 model in Germany at about $1 million all the way up to $2.6 million for the first model in the 2006 production run. Of course, no two Veyrons are exactly alike.

Luxury/super cars tend to have high depreciation because the people that buy them tend to want to upgrade or have a change 1-2 years later (such as how many BMW/Merc owners are now part-exchanging for Audis). A Veyron is the best production car around, so how does one upgrade from a Veyron? If your selling your Veyron, it means you've got financial trouble.
