Needless to say this car is all about the engine. Packed under the hood is a 8.0 liter, 16 cylinder engine that generates an outstanding 1188 HP. The top speed? 254.04 mph set the world record. It covers 0-60 mph in a blazing 2.7 seconds.

The 4 wheel drive system sits atop a race car chassis with fast acting shock absorbers and reinforced roll bars to insure optimum handling and safety.

Exterior

The first thing you will undoubtedly notice is the color scheme which is in orange and black, it distinguishes this model from the standard Grand Sport Vitesse. From the front, the top of the front fenders are orange and extend down and around the headlamp assemblies.

The flat bottomed oval grill is also outlined in orange with the prestigious Bugatti emblem displayed in its center. The profile from the side starts with the oversized orange spoke wheels. The sleek lines Bugatti is known for of course are present in the standard carbon fiber outer shell. The rear has 4 taillights, 2 on each side of the large “B” in the center with an integrated rear spoiler extending from the roof.

Interior

As you might expect, the orange and black color scheme follows in the inteior. As you enter, a signature, located along the side sills are autographed by Anthony Liu and information related to the world record set by Bugatti.

Otherwise the inside is your basic race car setup with plenty of gauges accentuated with chrome.
