Video: Guess What Scared a 1,200 HP Bugatti Veyron Super Sport at Goodwood�


There�s nothing faster, short of a Formula 1 car, than a Bugatti Veyron, right? In particular, a Bugatti Veyron Super Sport boasting a 1,200HP quad-turbocharged 16-cylinder engine, four-wheel drive tech and a 258 mph (415 km/h) top speed. Whoever is behind its wheel must feel invincible, right?
Well, actually, no. A few days ago, at the Goodwood Festival of Speed, a Veyron Super Sport that was ready to begin its climb up the hill pulled over and let another car start first. What car was that?

It Came From eBay Hell: Mercury Cougar Based Bugatti Veyron Replica


Ladies and gentlemen, we have a winner. Of all the cars I�ve featured in �It Came From eBay Hell�, this one takes the cake. It�s a 2002 Mercury Cougar with 120,000 miles (193,120 kilometres) on the clock, though that�s not what makes it special. No, what makes it special is the composite and fibreglass Bugatti Veyron body draped over it.
That�s right: it�s a Cougatti Vercuryon! Not only does this modern masterpiece come with (Walmart� Brand) 20-inch rims, two-tone paint and leather everything, it also comes with all the stuff that made the Mercury Cougar the modern classic it is today

Bugatti Altess Concept

Bugatti is one of the brands that represents perfection in the automotive world and thus a source of inspiration for many designers across the world. Amadou Ndiaye from Montreal, Canada is one of them. He has come up with the breathtaking Buggati Altess Concept. The beauty comes draped with looks that can leave any onlooker in a swooning state. The industrial designer has left no stone unturned to craft a potential heartthrob on roads.

Amadou has fetched heavy inspiration from Bugatti Atlantic, which ruled the roads during the 1930�s. The fashionable coupe will endow a user with the flexibility to use it as a comfort-loaded typical Buggati or let the wind kiss their skin in a true racer style. The fa�ade comes draped with neat cuts and has a spine that splits the car for an added grace. The hood, roof, rear quarter panels and windows can be swapped with a single-piece panel, which is lighter. It will provide much needed protection and keep passengers safe.
If you are in a mood to flirt with the sun and open surroundings, Buggati Altess will bow down to all such wishes. Simply, convert it into an open sports car and see the fun that follows. The eye-appealing shape sets it apart from a majority of coupes seen on roads. It will make heartbeats stop and people freeze after setting their eyes on this dainty vehicle. Buggati Altess is class apart and will definitely be a winner with such drop-dead gorgeous looks. So, use it as a roadster or a comfortable coupe, the choice is yours!

Bugatti�s One-of-a-Kind �L�Or Blanc� Veyron Grand Sport Special with...Porcelain Fittings


Say hello to the world�s first car to wear fine porcelain on its body as well as in its cabin, the one-off Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Grand Sport 'L'Or Blanc'. Admittedly, applying porcelain fittings on one of the fastest and most powerful production sports cars ever made doesn�t seem like a sound move, but when it comes to Bugatti, anything goes.
Created in partnership with Konigliche Porzellan-Manufaktur (KPM), the 'L'Or Blanc' was unveiled on Thursday at the porcelain manufacturer�s workshop in Berlin, German.
�At first, it seems to be an unusual idea to use porcelain in a car, especially in the world�s fastest convertible,� comments Dr. Stefan Brungs, Director of Sales and Marketing at Bugatti Automobiles. �But this is what Bugatti stands for: the realization of exceptional ideas whilst striving for the utmost in quality and aesthetics. This allows us to continue Ettore Bugatti�s heritage, who himself loved to experiment with new materials,� Brungs added.

Two for the Price of One: Amadou Ndiaye�s Bugatti Atless Concept

Now, Canadian industrial designer Amadou Ndiaye has taken these two classic automobiles and melded them into one with his Bugatti Atless design study.

The lucky buyer who scooped up the last Veyron is an unnamed �European customer� who, nevertheless, will have to wait until next fall for his $1.7 million supercar to be delivered.
