Thanks and goodbye, mighty Veyron.

Thanks and goodbye, mighty Veyron.The Bugatti Royale

Here’s some sad news. It looks like we’re finally going to have to say goodbye to the mighty Veyron. News is that Bugatti’s going to stop its production and is going to reintroduce a past model, named the Royale. Otherwise known as Type 41, it used to be Bugatti’s flagship carrier. The only good news about this is that it’ll inherit the Veyron’s powerplant. But it’s nothing to rejoice about. And here’s the irony – only 6 units will be built, only for Bugatti’s preffered customers.

Oh, the injustice! Such a cruel world we live in! It’s set to appear to public this September in Frankfurt. So those of you royalties out there, the Great Depression is gone and you might want a new Bugatti in your fleet. History of the model has it that Ettore Bugatti wanted to build 25 units during its first conception, but only 6 units were actually sold because of the Great Depression which stunted even the royalties of that time. Looks like we’re going to witness history repeat itself with the Royale making an appearance with the world financial crisis looming.
