Somthing chrome, something blue Something old, something new! ...I like the blue, but the silver grills look cheap, I'd much rather have them in black

actually VW loses money with every Veyron they sell, they don't sell them for profit.

That's a common misconception about the Veyron, they were losing $ on their original 50 as the R&D costs along with tooling and factory were incorporated into each unit and of course the cost of the car itself. Now at over 300 units sold they have paid off their R&D, tooling, and factory, i'm sure they are making profit. Also, a car like this needs special editions. One must understand how the rich think, they are always in competition, the Veyron is the BEST hypercar on the market so a rival rich man can't get the same car, he will get a more special edition than his neighbour. It's a vicious circle, and Bugatti know what they are doing.

I call the green one :P ShinyG,,, I think the people who can buy those won't care that their money went from $30,000,000,000 to $25,000,000,000.... you know,,, buying one of those will only drop them to $24,995,000,000 (assuming a 5mil price tag) in fact the guy could buy all of them and still have $24,980,000,000

i like how people whine about the price of hypercars. they can't even grasp that there are people in the world who buy cars, planes, yachts, houses and do not even know and care about the price, that's why they have accountants for :)

well, theres not that many people around anymore...half of the russian billionaires disappeared in this crisis and most of the super rich people have assets, but you cant actually buy anything with that...sure, they have a couple mill in the bank, but most of the value they have is in stocks of their companies...

In 2007 the US had 292 billionairs...Im guessing that $ went up. In economic crisis times the rich always get richer. With severe drops in property values and the near collapse of companies and the dollar remaining strong it's like a super sale for the super rich right now.

@ zdenda20, money circulates , it doesn't disappear. besides , after every depression comes a boom , it's how the economy works. funny thing is that i see a lot more luxury cars in Eastern Europe since the crisis started. you shouldn't worry about the Russian billionaires, most of their wealth isn't declared anyway :)

What about the middle east? Especially the Gulf region,,, Saudi Arabia has the most number of Bugattis in the world, 9 Bugattis, I personally saw one and the others rarely exit their owners' garages... There are still many people in this world who can easily afford these cars,,, you just don't know them
