A Bugatti Veyron Convertible? (Mobile Mag)

Thursday November 16, 2006 4:21 PM EST - By: Michael Kwan



"Ever wonder what the 1001hp Bugatti Veyron would look like as a drop top? Wonder no more, because this image has popped up on the internet of the Veyron Roadster. Interestingly, everything seems to be indicating away from a ragtop or even a retractable hard top. Instead, a "laminated glass roof panel" is being developed that you can put on and take off as you please, but you won't have anywhere to store it. As a result, word is that they're also working on a "temporary fabric panel... to cover the interior in an emergency situation."

Among some of the other changes are a beefening of the windshield pillars, the addition of adaptive headlights, and a strengthening of the chassis. For safety reasons, they're also limiting the top speed to 217mph. I guess that's fine, since it already lost the horsepower race to the
Bristol Fighter T.

This picture, however, is most likely a Photoshop anyways, but it gives you a good idea of what the production model may look like."

Nice find! I wouldnt mind a drop top but honestly If I were going to buy a Veyron it would have a fixed roof.

That picture has been floating around the web for some time. I doubt that there will be a convertible Veyron. First there were the Super Veyron rumours, now this... I don't belive in any of them.

The NewsBot works ,

I agree the fixed roof is my choice, in fact, for me the fixed roof is my choice for every supercar

Lol, i remember the "super Veyron" rumours

I don't doubt the possibilty of a convertible Veyron but according to EVO (whether it's true or not) Bugatti is working on a super saloon
