First Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport Sells for $2.9 million

a $900,000 convertible option? wow... simply wow, no amount of engineering in the world is worth that much.

Worth Every penny.... well most of them atleast. It's the first edition of this anyway.

Wasn't it an auction for charity?

Man #1 "that is the 8th car we've sold for over a million dollars this evening... alonnnneee" Man #2 " Good Looorrddd" Man #1 " I knowwww...let's try another!!!! :D:D:D:D" (british, english accent... dunno which one...) lmfao best part :P!!!

damn i wish i can drop down money like that haha

Your not buying an option your buying rarity and exclusivity.

Thanks for thanks. :)

Some people just have too much bloody money.

It looks wonderful, but I can't abide those alloys. It would look much better with a modern t35 look wheel or the stock Veyron rims.

who bought it?

Do the people who buy these cars not have any heart at all? Can't they be satisfied enough with a Porsche 911 or even a Ferrari 699 GTB?? With all the poverty in the world, how can they be so unfeeling to spend THAT much on a car! And the car isn't even an engineering achievement! Nor is it a classic! Anyone can build an enormous engine to make a car go fast! This is no McLaren F1...

I rather buy Audi RS6 (by B&B). This car might kick this car ass!! $900,000?? Pathetic expensive. Waste your money. Porsche 911 for me. Still the best Super Car.

Despite of the fact there is a chance to get it for more than on prospective buyer this Buggy still looks to me far more exclusive than Pininfarinas chinese Rolls.

Kimbo, I can read, write, and think better than you ever will. Do you have ANY sense of how much $2.9 million is to the average person in the world? How much of that $2.9 million is going to charity? Why not just give that money directly to charity! And by the way, I'm pretty sure that Jeremy Clarkson doesn't like the Bugatti Veyron as much he "says" he does on television... he and other people with an appreciation for engineering know that this car is NOT an engineering achievment. I'd rather have a Porsche 911 than that fancy shopping cart with a jet engine! And another thing, feeling for the poor and having common sense does not mean one qualifies as a communist. In fact, a person with the traits that you yourself exhibit would be considered closer is closer to a communist. Whatever... it's not my money that has been squandered...
