they have a hardtop version??? wow. that is way wicked.

[phuviano]

5?? wtf?? I haven't even seen one in real life before.

Thanks for sharing.

[tuningmycivic]

that c/f and polish aluminum is freaking ridiculous....

[sniperscout]

i think they are fugly...i respect them but if i had the money would never buy one

[inthezoneac]

it must be nice to see one in real life, but god are they some fugly overpriced cars. They must not live too far away, or else they'd run out of gas half way to get it refilled lol

[filipinop1405]

the front is way ugly but the back is ok....i guess

[manahoonie]

well ok, to accomodate those of you who don't care for the Veyron...spotted one of these as well:

actually, the cars can come from anywhere in the world. If you're refering to the Veyron running out of ga after 12 minutes, that's only when it's at it's top speed.

I'm going to post up pics of other cars that appeared for the week. People come from all over the world for this Concours...Cars here sell easily well over the million dollar range. One sold at an auction for $7.4 million. a 1967 Bugatti I believe...

This is also one of the types of places where the rich begin the process of purchasing one of these machines. There was a guy talking to the Bugatti rep, exchanging info as well, about getting one himself. Bentley, Rolls Royce also had reps there!

Crazy, the Veyron came in a targa top as well? I thought the Murcielago was the only car with a removable top to break 200 miles an hour.

[manahoonie]

it's brand new...the one in the picture is production #001. It was auctioned off that night. ( I wish I knew how much it went for!)

When you purchase a Veyron, you get flown to the factory, given a tour of the place, viewing other cars for people while in production, and deciding on your interior fabrics & colors, exterior colors and materials that the skin is made out of

Quote from event Program:

Chassis Number 001 of the new 2009 production model will be sold on Concours Sunday at the Pebble Beach Auction presented by Gooding & Company. The high bidder will have the chance to specify the car in Molsheim/Alsace. Proceeds in excess of the MSRP will go directly to one of the Pebble Beach Concours charities--the Pebble Beach Company Foundation, which supports educational programs to aid the youth of Monterey County.
