Bugatti is celebrating their first one hundred years in business this year but aside from that, the marque is expected to unveil a supercar which most likely will serve as compass for the future of the company.
A century after Ettore Bugatti established the company, we are able to see another milestone of the carmaker in the form of the 2009 Galibier 16C.
According to Bugatti insiders, the car manufacturer is considering three proposed designs for the next generation Bugatti. There is a high probability that the Galibier 16C will go into production after the Veyron ends its run by 2012.
The body of the Galibier 16C is made from a blend of carbob-fiber and aluminum which establishes its places as the lightest car in its class. The chassis is further strengthened by reinforced plastic and marked by LED lights on its ends.

Bugatti will be celebrating its 100 years in business this year. Aside from the car manufacturer’s centenary celebration, they will also be releasing in September what they look forward to and announce their progress on developing a new Bugatti supercar dubbed as the Bordeaux.
September is a very important date for the car maker since it is the month when its father Etoore Bugatti established the company in 1909. It also happens to be the month for the Frankfurt Motor Show.
How the buzz started about a Buggatti supercar is a long story. A photo was sent to friend of a member of the Ferrarichat forum and hints of a new Bugatti model. The picture is clearly not a Veyron so it could be a super sedan or something else we do not expect.
According to insiders, it will be the Bordeaux which will be a super car that can carry four passengers. Under its hood will be the 8.0L quad turbo W 16 engine. The name sounds fast and the figures never lie since it can output 1001hp making it the fastest 4-seater car in the world.

Every once in a while Bugatti comes out with a Special Model Veyron, and they’ve just shown us one of the most exclusive ones to date. Luxury brand Hermès teamed up with Bugatti to come up with this Bugatti Veyron Fbg par Hermès that is… well, in the words of Barney Stinson, LEGENDARY.
The partnership between both brands worked great – and in my honest opinion it’s one of the best looking Bugs ever. The H-logo on the rims… MY GOD they’re HOT!
If that’s not a great start of a car presentation, I don’t know what is… The rest of the pics are even more convincing:
More High Resolution photos of this Veyron by Hermes are right here.

It’s a hundred years ago that Ettore Bugatti started his company in France, the now Volkswagen-owned Bugatti label decided to celebrate this event with a brand new special edition Bugatti Veyron. I think it’s a great idea! Now that over 200 of the 300 ever to be produced Veyrons are out the door, I’m pretty sure more of these limited editions will be created…
This one… I’m not so sure. Obviously it looks great in Bugatti-blue, but for some reason I have yet to see a special edition to look as good as the Veyron Pegaso… The interior is awesome though, and I’m sure it’ll do just as well as a jaw-dropper.

A vintage find 1937 Bugatti Type 57S Atalante Coupe shone at the Bonhams Retromobile auction held last February 7 in Paris. The vintage wonder was discovered inside a British garage and was sold to the highest bidder for approximately $4.4 million.
While Bonhams failed to give information on the Bugatti’s new owner, Bonhams stated that the selling price of the 1937 Bugatti is 3,417,500 Euros. There are only 17 copies of the Type 57S Atalante Coupe at present. The one sold at the Paris auction was initially owned by the President of the British Racing Drivers Club, Earl Howe. The model was passed from one owner to another until in 1955 it was bought by Dr Harold Carr of England. It was reported that the vintage car was kept in his garage in the 1960s and did not run for a very long time. In 2007, after Carr’s death, the Bugatti was rediscovered.

I was looking for other special Veyrons when I stumbled upon this Bugatti Veyron Pegaso Edition at Style Blog We Are Style. It’s a pretty amazing looking thing, and the million-dollar-license plate from the United Arab Emirates (number 1 baby! — worth more than the car itself!) gives the car the status it deserves in the money-drenched city of Dubai…
I absolutely love the colors, the interior — and the Veyron.
