Bugatti unveiled a special edition of the brand new Veyron 16.4 Grand Sport Vitesse, featuring a unique Bianco and New Light Blue color scheme. For those who don’t know, this color combination is not entirely new as it is inspired by the famous Type 37A, built back in 1928. What is more interesting is that the car won plenty of Grans Prix races in its time and it is now owner by Jay Leno. Regarding the Veyron 16.4 Grand Sport Vitesse, this special edition features the same 7.9-liter W16 engine delivering 1,200 hp and an incredible 1,500 Nm of torque. With these numbers, the car reaches a top speed of 100 km/h (62 mph) in 2.6 seconds and has a top speed of 410 km/h (255 mph), making it the fastest production roadster ever. Still, the maximum speed can be achieved on a closed track with special safety precautions. In the “normal” handling mode, the Veyron 16.4 Grand Sport Vitesse has a top speed electronically limited to 375 km/h (233 mph). Regarding the price tag, this special edition Veyron 16.4 Grand Sport Vitesse costs $2.5 million.
