Monterey 2009: Bugatti Grand Sport Sang Bleu live from the Quail Lodge

A new Bugatti piece of art for Pebble Beach

The « Sang Bleu » to honour the 100th anniversary of the marque Carmel, California, 14th August 2009. – Continuing this year's 100th anniversary celebrations Bugatti Automobiles S.A.S. has chosen the prestigious Pebble Beach weekend to present a further highlight to pay tribute to this legendary brand : The company proudly unveils the Bugatti « Sang Bleu » - an exclusive, one-off Grand Sport, honouring the marques precious heritage.

Innovation and Harmony

The « Sang Bleu » has ventured into new areas. Instead of applying two paint colours or paint and material to highlight the two tone design the « Sang Bleu » exclusively concentrates on materials - carbon fibre and aluminum - an innovative combination never realised before. This unique approach opens a new dimension of « Art – Forme – Technique », the company's core alues.

The colour combination commissioned for the Pebble Beach car is blue carbon fibre with polished aluminum. The visual carbon fibre is tinted in royal blue to emphasize the refined volumes and surfaces of the Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport. The rear airscoops are tinted in the same nightblue – offering a dramatic view from above – and thus fluidly integrate into the overall design philosophy of this unique model.

The rims are inspired by the Grand Sport Roadster and are highlighted in a Midnight Blue and Diamond Cut two tone finish. The interior, specially and tastefully selcted for the Pebble Beach event, is trimmed in a newly developed Gaucho leather which blends with the intriguing and pure exterior materials creating an elegant and harmonious overall appearance.

Featured Marque

In the year of its100th anniversary Bugatti has been selected to be one of the featured marques at the 2009 Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance. Ettore Bugatti started his business in the Alsacian town of Molsheim in 1909. The name of the company: „Ettore Bugatti Automobiles i. Els.". In 1956 the company ceased its activities. Exactly 50 years later, in March 2006, the first Bugatti Veyron built by Bugatti Automobiles S.A.S. was delivered – after the Volkswagen Group had aquired the rights of the Bugatti marque in 1998 and started the re-launch of this famous brand. To date over 250 of the planned Bugatti Veyrons are sold, 215 of them have been delivered to customers worldwide. In June 2009 Bugatti started production of the Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport, the open roadster. The sales results are encouraging over 20 Grand Sports have been sold, with first deliveries already started.

The Bugatti « Sang Bleu » is the latest in a line of centenary Bugatti models which have won worldwide acclaim in 2009. This unique car stands – like the others - for the commitment of the Bugatti of today to carry the values and the philosophy of Ettore Bugatti, the founder of this unique marque, into a successful future.

Amazing, though as unusable as Cinderella's glass shoes. The unwanted attention that the car will generate is overwhelming to the point of me want to sell it if I had one. It's beautiful but in a very brash way.

 

[DaSilva]

Her Majesty ....


Beautiful Beautiful Beautiful

Beautiful Beautiful Beautiful

Lol You got that right! Such an untouchable force.

 

[ree]

OMG!! It looks stunning…

 

[Merc1]

Good lord, that is way over the top, wretched excess of the highest order. It actually doesn't look too bad though and the interior is to die for. Nothing would get more attention on the road.

Edit: I want one. The wheels alone have more pull than most car designs.

Yes, I must say, easily one of the most outrightly desirable cars ever made. Money no object - it's a must have piece of automotive jewellery.

 

[Sayyaaf]

I am sorry but I can't think of a possible way that Bugatti can actually end the production of this model. It should be here for at least the next 5-10 years ... nothing has come close to it .. it is a living dream IMO ....

 

[Merc1]

I can't wait to see what type sedan/coupe they come up with. My goodness to be rich.

Yes, what a wonderful thing to be. I would love to drive this thing down I-95 from Maine to Miami.

Just to wake up with this car in your garage sitting next to a Bentley and a S65 AMG....Oh

 

[Yaz]

Speechless!!

I would love to drive this thing down I-95 from Maine to Miami.

You gonna let me take it for a spin when you stop in NYC?

Bugatti Gran Sport Sang Bleu Live in Frankfurt

Press Release

"Sang Bleu" to honour the 100th anniversary of the marque
European premiere of another unique Bugatti model
Frankfurt, 14 September 2009 - Continuing this year's 100th anniversary celebrations, Bugatti Automobiles S.A.S. will present another tribute to the marque's legendary heritage on the eve of
the Frankfurt International Motor Show: the "Sang Bleu", an exclusive one-off Grand Sport model.
Innovation and harmony
The "Sang Bleu" represents a step into uncharted territory. Instead of using two paint colours or a
combination of paint and bare material to achieve the two-tone design, the "Sang Bleu" uses materials alone - in this case, carbon fibre and aluminium. This innovative combination has never been used before. It is a unique approach that represents a new interpretation of the company's core values of "Art - Forme - Technique".
The material combination for this unique car is carbon fibre with polished aluminium. The carbon fibre is coloured royal blue to emphasise the lines and surfaces of the Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport. The rear
airscoops are coloured the same royal blue. As such they look particularly dramatic from above, and
integrate fluidly into the overall design of this unique model.
The rims are inspired by the Grand Sport Roadster and are highlighted in a royal blue/diamond cut twotone finish. The interior is trimmed in new Gaucho leather which blends with the intriguing yet
understated exterior materials to create an elegant and harmonious overall appearance.
A marque of distinction
Ettore Bugatti started his business in the Alsatian town of Molsheim in 1909. The name of the company
was "Ettore Bugatti Automobiles i. Els". The company ceased trading in 1956. Exactly 50 years later, in March 2006, the first Bugatti Veyron built by Bugatti Automobiles S.A.S. was delivered, after the
Volkswagen Group had acquired the rights to the Bugatti name in 1998 and relaunched this famous
marque. To date, over 250 of the planned 300 Bugatti Veyrons have been sold, and 215 of them have been delivered to customers around the world. In June 2009 Bugatti started production of the Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport open-top roadster. Their production is limited to 150 units of which the first chassis numbers are reserved for existing Veyron owners. Sales are highly encouraging, with over 20 Grand Sports already ordered, and the first cars already having been delivered.
The Bugatti "Sang Bleu" had previously only been exhibited at the Concours d'Elégance in Pebble Beach, California earlier this year, where it was immediately snapped up for 1.9 million euros (excluding taxes). It is the latest in a series of centenary Bugatti models which have won worldwide acclaim in 2009. Like the others, this unique car symbolises the modern Bugatti's commitment to building a successful future based on the values and philosophy of Ettore Bugatti, the founder of this unique marque.

You mean the Brooklyn Bridge, right. It's literary impossible to go over 5 there.

 

[HighestOfHigh]

World's greatest automobile?

Yessss

I love the S65 AMG better then some humans, but the Veyron is just the ultimate power in the Automotive world that can not be ignored.

Now if Benz would up the SLS AMG to 1100hp....then I might have a change of heart.

But until then.... Bugatti!
