$2 Million Car
Posted by Media Outrage on September 21, 2008
This beautiful slice of heaven is the Bugatti Veyron Fbg fully decorated by Parisian design house Hermes. The cost of this luxury vehicle? $2 million. This 1001-bhp- V-16 quad-turbocharged engine goes 0-62 mph in 2.6 seconds. Nice. It’s a wonderfully expensive thing that happens when fashion and cars get together and collaborate. Read below to find out how this project came about and get more details on the design.
Via Aol Autos:
This rather long appendage to the Bugatti nameplate reflects a relationship that the factory says goes back to 1927 when Ettore Bugatti sought fitted luggage from the Parisian design house.
That relationship has come full circle in this limited-edition Bugatti with styling cues developed by Hermes. The Fbg appellation refers to Hermes’ headquarters on Rue du Faubourge Saint Honore in Paris.
It’s not just a color and paint trim package, although the sand-colored hood and rear decklid are the first indications that this package is special. The face of the car has been revamped with a brushed-aluminum trademark horse collar grille now flanked with a panel with two air inlets. All the mesh grilles — including the main radiator opening, lower inlets — engine air snorkels aft of the passenger cabin and the rocker panel inlets now have a pattern that reflect the Hermes “H” motif.
Inside, sand-colored leather covers all the surfaces, and even the inside door pulls have been reconfigured to looks more like luggage latches than door handles.
Bespoke leather on the interior, and Hermes logos on the wheel hubs and fuel-filler door speak to the car’s pedigree. The car retains its legendary performance from its 1001-bhp V-16 quad-turbocharged engine, which enables a factory-claimed 0-62-mph run of 2.6 seconds. The price? Nearly $2 million.
Mediaoutrage- If you had $2 million to spend on a vehicle would you get it? We can imagine Oprah driving past the dealership and telling her driver to “Back the f*ck up! I want that sh$t! Damn I forgot my checkbook. Cool just pull that $2 million from under the seat and then fly Gayle out here so she can drive me home in it. Oh and tell that “ho” Sarah Palin that even if she does become Vice President of the United States and then eventually President because her great grandfather and running mate McCain is like 113, she still won’t be able to afford this car. Infact just to show my ass Im going to buy this car in cash right now and then take a giant sh*t on the Hermes seats tape it and throw it on YouTube and make an entire show showing how I took a sh*t in a car that none of them can f**king afford.”

A couple of years ago the price tag on this car was 1.2 million. This car will break your pockets. Scort storch was pretty well off when he bought one. So be careful if you buy one.

Spending 2mil to get a car is stupid to me. Why in the hell would you buy a car for 2mil and spend another 1mil keeping it tuned up. Then loose value of the car once you buy the thing. i would find a better way to spend my money. I can always buy a care for 20thousand and make it worth 2mil.
