Bugatti To Launch Six Special Editions
Six special versions of its 16.4 Grand Sport Vitesse to come over the next year.

Bugatti is set to release yet even more special edition Veyrons. These specials will be named Bugatti Legends, to commemorate individuals who have shaped the brand's rich history.

There will be six of these editions produced, with the first dedicated to Jean-Pierre Wimille, and will be unveiled at Pebble Beach this August.

Autocar notes that all six Legend cars are to be based on record-breaking 16.4 Grand Sport Vitesse, which is powered by an astonishing 8.0-litre W16 engine, that produces 1184bhp.

It is unknown to us just how many of each Legend editions will be made, except for the confirmation that three of the Wimille special editions will be made.

It's a new edition every time they do a new paint scheme. Kinda lame

 

So is Bugatti the next "mustang/Corvette". Must be since they both have more limited editions with nothing special except unique paint.

Getting a little boring really.

 

Comparing a Bugatti to a Mustang or a Corvette. Seriously? And all Mustang and Corvette special editions are much more than paint schemes being changed.

Some of your comments are just ridiculous.

 

Come on, not all but majority of the mustang and corvettes have a different special paint job or a new decal it a special addition. ie. Mustang has 4 different Special edition for heritage planes, but no power enhancements.

Of course bugatti and Mustangs are two totally different cars on the spectrum, but they seem to coming out with more and more special editon with a different paint job. just saying.

I know you own a mustang and don't mean to offend you but I'm just saying as I see it.

 

I'm not offended, I usually don't even like stangs. But you can hardly call those "Special Editions". I would consider a GT500 or a California Special a Special Edition and not the one-offs that Ford barely has anything to do with. When they make those "heritage editions" they donate a Mustang to a body shop to paint. That isn't a special edition. What Bugatti is doing is similar to what they do, except Bug does it in house and for customers. And how much farther do you want them to go with one of the fastest production cars in the world without doing a complete re-design?

Mustang special editions (Cali Special, GT500KR, Boss 302, Shelby Supersnake, SVT Cobra) have more suspension/power changes than they do appearance.

No I wouldn't call them special editions but Ford does, hell almost every car manufacturer from Ford to Lamborghini have dozens or variations but call them Special Editions.

For me a special edition is say the lamborghini veneno or Aston Martin CC10, something that really special. Not a car that pretty much the same but with a different colour or new rims.

 

So you just contradicted yourself? Sounds like you agree with me then. If you need clarification of what Ford considers "special edition" see the link I posted to Ford Mustang Variants. Then tell me that most of them are just paint changes...

 

So many "special editions" that makes it no special at all tbh.
