$2.5 Million Mansory Vincero Bugatti Veyron for Sale

While Bugatti's much-anticipated Centenaire Bleu edition in celebration of it's 100th anniversary presented at the Geneva Motor Show turned out to be something of a letdown, another tweaked Veyron more than lived up to the hype. We're talking about the Mansory Vincero (above), which we first told you about back in January, of which only three examples are being built. With over $700,000 worth of upgrades added by Mansory, the total price of the Vincero (Italian for "I will win") comes out to about $2.5 million.

One of the Vincero's is now for sale in Abu Dhabi via online global luxury marketplace JamesList. The German-based exotic auto tuner boosted the car's power to 1,109 hp, and the exterior is finished in high-gloss black and grey with chrome accents on the grille, front fenders and doors, and front and rear carbon fiber panels. Inside there's two-tone black and white leather, ambient cabin lighting and custom F1-style shift paddles on the steering wheel.

Bugatti Plans Veyron Centenaire 100th Anniv. Edition

Filed under: Luxury Cars & Autos

The $1.5 million Bugatti Veyron may already be the most super of supercars, but it's also been the subject of countless special editions designed to up the ante even further. The ultra-exclusive models we've seen include the Pur Sang, Sang Noir and Hermes editions, as well as one-offs like the Mansory Vincero. Now reports have surfaced that Bugatti will unveil a new Veyron limited edition called the Centenaire 'Bleu' in celebration of Bugatti's 100th anniversary at this month's Geneva Motor Show. The Centenaire could produce up to 1,400 hp with a top speed around 275 mph to help the Veyron recapture the world's fastest production car title. Carbon fiber could be used to reduce weight and up the speed quotient.

Simon Cowell Picks Up A Bugatti Veyron

Simon Cowell blew some serious cash on some serious wheels recently when he had some spare time on his hands (and apparently some spare cash) due to a week off work for the Rugby World Cup. He dropped over £1,000,000 in LA on two new cars: a £750,000 Bugatti Veyron and a £400,000 Rolls Royce Phantom Drophead Coupe.

Somehow this doesn't surprise me. Simon Cowell hardly seems to shy away from flash and attention, and although fast cars don't necessarily mean an ego problem (I would love to have a Veyron myself!) I think in his case they might!

The Colorless Bugatti Veyron Pur Sang

by Rigel Celeste (RSS feed) —

Filed under: Luxury Cars & Autos

I love a shiny red sports car as much as the next person, but here's something completely different: how about getting a new Bugatti Veyron Pur Sang and passing on the paint job altogether? The colorless design ends up two-toned, and highlights both the functionality and artistic beauty of the vehicle. The dark carbonfiber down the center covers the W16 engine, passenger cell, crash box, and linkages to the wheels while the shinier aluminum sides give the car its sleek shape and silhouette. The car will be available in limited edition for about 1.4m euros.

So what do you think? I love it.

Riding in Nazarian's Bugatti Veyron

Sam Nazarian is big business. CEO of SBE Entertainment, Sam is quickly making a name for himself with a number of the highest-end restaurants, most exclusive clubs (L.A.'s famous Hyde is one), and most sought-after real estate to name just a few of his many projects. So what does a man like Sam do in his spare time? Drive around in his new Bugatti Veyron, impressing women, of course.

And Sue Callaway, of Fortune magazine, definitely seemed impressed when she got to ride in, and test drive, the $1.4 million sports car. Smooth, exclusive, and "jet-like" (Sue's words) in speed and power, I might never be interested in spending that much on a car, but I sure would have loved having her job that day.
