Pièce de Résistance

2012 Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport L 'Or Blanc
The Veyron hardtop maybe gone, but they Veyron glass top is still with us. And, to show that the Grand Sport keeps the tradition, elegance, speed, and science of the hardtop Veyron, Bugatti recently unveiled this artistic Grand Sport L 'Or Blanc. Basically it's the Veyron Grand Sport with some porcelain bits on it since it was built in conjunction with Germany's Köngliche Porzellan-Manufaktur (Royal Porcelain Manufactory Berlin). So it's got some Porcelain on the exterior, interior, wheels, and filler caps. Who cares? It's still got the brilliant 8.0-liter Quad-Turbocharged 1001 horsepower W16 engine that will do 0 to 60 in 2.5 seconds and hit a top speed of...you guessed it...252 MPH. The only difference is that the body looks like a reflective mass thanks to the strange Vinyl work. Anyway, if you have $2.37 Million and want a seriously fast car with some porcelain on it, then there you are: the Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport L 'Or Blanc (or GLOB as Top Gear calls it). Oh, and did I mention that this is a one-off? There's bound to be someone crazy enough to buy it.
