Rear wing air-brake, Automatic height adjusting suspension as
standard equipment, A modern supercar of monumental capability and
significance, 252 16.4 Veyron's have been produced in total of
these, only 76 were manufactured in U.S. specification, Collector
ownership. The Bugatti company history is exceptionally well known
and respected since its inception in 1909, known for their design,
engineering and beauty as well as numerous race victories. Up until
the death of company founder, Ettore Bugatti in 1947, approx. 8,000
cars were produced. An effort to revive the company was undertaken
in the 1980's with the unveiling and ultimate manufacture of the EB
110 supercar. It was not until 1998 when the Volkswagen Group
purchased the rights to the company which would further realize
Ferdinand Piech's vision to create a 16-cylinder automobile of
superlative power, performance, and prestige.Piech's mandates for
the car that would eventually become the Bugatti Veyron were
refined with time, become even more ambitious: It needed to produce
1,001 PS (987 horsepower) and achieve a top speed in excess of 400
km/h (nearly 250 mph), yet also be entirely usable for daily
driving and comfortable for both driver and passenger. Impressive
today, these parameters seemed otherworldly around the turn of the
millennium. The cost of the project was of little consequence; what
mattered was resurrecting Bugatti in spectacular fashion while
demonstrating the engineering prowess of the Volkswagen Group as a
whole. Remarkably, the production car that emerged in 2005 managed
to meet, and even exceed, these lofty expectations, with 0-62 mph
acceleration taking just 2.46 seconds en route to a top speed just
over 408 km/h (nearly 254 mph). Built around a magnificent,
mid-mounted, quad-turbocharged 8.0-liter W-16 featuring four valves
per cylinder and mated to a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission,
the Veyron stunned the world with its surefootedness at even the
most extreme speeds with the help of its full-time Haldex all-wheel
drive system. Even the car's ancillary systems, including 10
radiators, are marvels of automotive engineering conceived to
perform under the most demanding circumstances.Braking was equally
stunning given the Veyron's massive carbon-ceramic disc brakes with
15.7-inch discs and eight-piston, four-pad calipers up front, while
15-inch discs with six-piston, two-pad calipers were equipped at
the rear. The alloy wheels, which were respectively 20 and 21
inches at the front and rear, were shod with special
purpose-designed Michelin Pilot Sport PS2 PAX run-flat tires that
provided superior grip.Equally captivating is the intricacy of the
Veyron's hand-crafted construction and the impact of its design. In
its scale and proportions, the Veyron is unlike anything else. It
is actually shorter in overall length than a modern Porsche 911,
though it rides on a longer, 106.7-inch wheelbase, and it is
noticeably lower and wider than that benchmark German sportscar.
Three driving modes are offered: Normal mode, at which the ride
height was 4.9 inches. Handling mode that deployed the rear spoiler
and lowered ride height to 3.15 inches and a special key-activated
High-Speed mode that dropped ride height to 2.56 inches in front
and 2.75 at the rear, while changing the spoiler position.With just
3,000 miles from new, this Veyron is offered from its collection
ownership. It is complete with its full ownership and service
histories. It has always been cared for regardless of cost and has
been housed in a climate-controlled environment. Thus, this Veyron
presents in exceptional and as close to new condition today. This
is a rare opportunity to own a supercar worthy of Bugatti legacy
and the world-renowned horseshoe grille, an automobile manufactured
in low production numbers with an unparalleled forward thrust given
its horsepower, a motorcar that ensure its exclusivity within the
history of the automobile.
