Most expensive new car ever...Bugatti
Bugatti, the French sports car brand that is now owned by German automaker Volkswagen, has revealed the most expensive new car ever built.

I’d buy a McLaren F1 if I had that kind of coin, their value rises almost every time one of them changes hands. And yes $19-20M is their current value.
That one off Bugatti is a vanity piece, doubtful that it will be more than a curiosity in the future. |

Like Paul, I'd rather have the 57SC Atlantic.

But hell everyone has that in Monaco so got to step it up.

Indeed. The swooping line in the rear end is a nice nod to their past. I’ll admit I didn’t hate the veryon at release but the design isn’t aging well.

The Bugatti just doesn't do it for me in the looks department. Very "cool" to look at it, but not my taste.

No way, considering how screwed up the VW Group is with Bentley's POS ... that was perfect for them to separate the money from the fools in the world. I've come to the conclusion that's basically what VW group is doing by separating the foolish from their money so their egos can be enhanced.
