Bugatti

Bugatti is planning on building an extremely limited-edition run of its high-end Centodieci hypercars. Even though the company plans to build only 10 Centodieci cars, its testing regime remains the same. Recently the Italian automaker confirmed the vehicle had completed its high-temperature desert testing.

It’s already close to impossible to afford a Bugatti Chiron, with its astronomical base price just South of $3 million, but now there’s a Bugatti valued at nearly $9 million. The Bugatti Centodieci, pronounced “chento-dee-echi,” is based on the Chiron, but its design is inspired by the Bugatti EB 110, a truly innovative supercar from the 1990s.

Bugatti and gigantic W16 engines with loads of power are like peanut butter and jelly. Does anyone really want one without the other? We will soon find out as Bugatti CEO Stephan Winkelmann has admitted that there will be no new W16 engine.

Hot on the heels of releasing its amazing LEGO Technic scale model of the Bugatti Chiron, designers and engineers from LEGO have created something truly epic – a full-size, driveable replica of the Chiron, made almost entirely from LEGO Technic parts.

Back when Bugatti went belly up in the mid-90s, a group of former workers bought all the leftover bits and used them to build a car called the Edonis. A car maker called Casil Motors will be making a limited run of 15 copies of the SP-110 Edonis Fenice.

Bugatti has announced that it will be making a change to new Chiron cars that will see the vehicles shed a bit of unsprung weight. The weight savings will come in the form of lighter brake calipers.

There’s a very large ocean between a Honda Civic and a Bugatti Veyron. The Civic is a sub-$30,000, front-wheel drive car, with a 4-cylinder engine, and in most incarnations, less than 200 horsepower. On the other hand, pretty much every Veyron ever sold went for more than a $1.5 million bucks, is all-wheel drive, has a massive 16-cylinder engine, that pushes out at least 1,000 horsepower.

The Bugatti Chiron is the company’s latest hypercar, and it’s a beast. It has a 8.0L W16 engine making almost 1500 hp – enough to push the car from a stop to 62 mph in 2.5 seconds on the way to a top speed that’s been electronically limited to 260 mph.

One of the coolest shows on TV for car guys and gals is How It’s Made: Dream Cars. This series lets you get a look at how some of the most amazing cars in the world are made.

When you buy any used car with high repair costs it’s probably wise to pay for a warranty. If you are buying say a used Aston Martin, Jaguar, or anything German you certainly want to have it covered, given their track record.

The car geeks over at Top Gear were fortunate enough to get a bit handsy with the Bugatti Chiron that recently turned up at Pebble Beach. While there, they also found out that Bugatti already has 200 orders on the books for the Chiron even though the car hasn’t launched officially just yet.

Bugatti has yet to ship its production Chiron yet, and so far the only a couple of show cars have been completed. That doesn’t mean that with enough money you can’t get your hands on the cars though.

Bugatti CEO Wolfgang Durheimer has been evaluating four proposals that could see a second Bugatti model slot into place along with the Chiron. Among those proposals is one that would see the resurrection of the Galibier concept car, first revealed back in 2009, and ultimately shelved in 2013.

A very lucky dude from Car Throttle got the chance to be the very first writer geek to take a ride in the new Bugatti Chiron hypercar on the Nürburgring, with Bugatti president Wolfgang Dürheimer behind the wheel.

Of all the cars that Bugatti has ever made, the Vision Gran Turismo concept is the coolest in my opinion. This car looked awesome when it debuted in digital form specifically for the Gran Turismo video game on the PS3.
