Jonny Lieberman cruises Miami—one of the world's premier supercar
cities—in one of the world's premier supercars. That would be the Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport Vitesse.
With its 8.0-liter quad-turbo W-16 engine making an awesome 1,200 hp
and 1,100 lb-ft of torque, the 2015 Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport Vitesse
takes top-down cruising to another level. Its top speed of 233 mph makes
the Bugatti Veyron one of the fastest vehicles ever produced even four
years after production ended. Its standard all-wheel-drive system also
means it's able to put its power down efficiently, allowing it to
accelerate to 60 mph in well under 3.0 seconds.
The arrival of the Bugatti Chiron,
however, means that you can no longer buy a Bugatti convertible that
does 233 mph. That's because the Veyron's successor doesn't have a
drop-top variant planned. In total, just 450 examples of the Bugatti Veyron
were built over its 10-year run, with only 92 being Grand Sport Vitesse
models, making it a rare vehicle even by supercar standards.
At the end of the Veyron's production run, Bugatti turned the very
last example into a one-off special edition called the Veyron Grand
Sport Vitesse La Finale. It features a two-tone black and red exterior
that pays homage to the very first Veyron built. The Bugatti Veyron
Grand Sport Vitesse La Finale also sports exposed carbon fiber, red and
cream two-tone upholstery, and a bronze-casted emblem on the interior
storage compartment featuring Bugatti's famed elephant logo.
