Geneva 2010: Bugatti Grand Sport

Over the past few years Bugatti has released numerous versions of its Veyron supercar, but the Grand Sport model hasn't been out enough to get too many variations. Bugatti released the Sang Bleu version this past summer in Monterey, but that's about it. In addition to the the pair of Grand Sports we drove, those are the only color combinations we've seen for the drop-top Bugatti.

That is, of course, until we hit the show floor here in Geneva. Bugatti has brought out a brand new Grand Sport finished in carbon fiber covered in clearcoat and polished aluminum. Other than the wheels, which we're not huge fans of, the car is completely stunning to look at. If we somehow had the cash to buy and maintain a Bugatti, the carbon fiber finish would be the first option we would check off. You can see all of our live photos of the car in the high-res gallery below. And try to keep the drool from puddling on your keyboard.

Looks great! But to be honest, every time Bugatti brings out another version of the Veyron I get less and less excited

That is what they call "Customization Programm", it is not a special edition or something like one-off. It is a way to show how each car could be personalized.

I am actually in Geneva now, was there for the second press day yesterday. I was at the stand - both of them looking as perfect as you can imagine in person.

A little secret - this is just a preparation for something big to happen, this work with CF only Veyron is actually only start of the work. From what some sources talk is lighter and more powerful all-CF flex-fuel Veyron to come in the future, not so far future I would like to mention.

That's great news, D55L! I bet you're even more psyched to hear that than the rest of us!
