This a 2008 Bugatti Veyron 16.4 is chassis number VF9SA25C88M795108, and it’s finished in a fantastic specification of black, with black wheels and a gray interior. This car represents 1 of approximately 450 total examples of the Bugatti Veyron produced across all variations from 2005 until 2015, of which just 252 are believed to have been standard Veyron 16.4 models. The Veyron model was designed by Slovak automobile designer, Jozef Kabaň and its earliest origins trace back to the year 1998. During this time, Volkswagen AG had just acquired the rights for the Bugatti logo and the Bugatti Automobiles S.A.S trade name. A successor to the Bugatti EB 110 began with a number of concepts and prototypes produced from 1998-1999 by design and engineering company Italdesign Giugiaro. The first car arrived at the 1998 Paris Motor Show, and was known as the 2-door EB 118. A four-door variation appeared at the 1999 Geneva Motor Show, named the EB218. The third, and last prototype, and also the most visually similar to the Veyron appeared at the 1999 Frankfurt International Motor Show, known as the 18/3 Chiron, a distinctive looking mid-engined sports car. A fourth concept, this time designed in-house by Hartmut Warkuß was shown at the 1999 Tokyo Motor Show, now named the EB 18/4 Veyron. Finally, in 2000, the world got its first glimpse at the Veyron 16/4 at Detroit and Geneva, now featuring four-bank W16 engine architecture. The Veyron EB 16.4 is named after French Grand Prix motor racing driver, Bugatti development engineer, and Le Mans winner, Pierre Veyron, while the ‘EB’ refers to the companies founder, Ettore Bugatti. The ‘16.4’ is simply the engine’s 16 cylinders and quad-turbochargers. The result of the Veyron was an absolutely visceral machine, capable of speeds over 250mph and a drag coefficient of Cd=0.36.
