Bugatti readying ?super? Veyron for 100th anniversary?

This year happens to be Bugatti?s 100th anniversary, having been founded in 1909, which can only mean one thing ? another special edition Veyron. A new report indicates Bugatti is readying a commemorative 100th anniversary edition of the Veyron supercar, which will likely surface at next month?s Geneva Motor Show.

Believed to be called the Bugatti Veyron Centenaire Edition, the limited edition model promises to be the highest performing Veyron yet. Output is pegged at around 1,350 horsepower, resulting in a top speed in excess of 260 mph.

The Veyron Centenaire Edition is expected to wear a unique body kit, complete with plenty of carbon fiber.

No other details are known about the project at this time, but check back for more details and live images after the Geneva show kicks off next week.

The current veyron already has "plenty of carbon fiber"...

IIRC, the veyron has aluminium doors though right?
"On a given day, a given circumstance, you think you have a limit. And you then go for this limit and you touch this limit, and you think, 'Okay, this is the limit'. And so you touch this limit, something happens and you suddenly can go a little bit further. With your mind power, your determination, your instinct, and the experience as well, you can fly very high." - Ayrton Senna

I'm morbidly curious to see what 224 mph with an open roof feels like

Stick your hand in the air and it will do two things:  break your arm and slow the car down 10 mph.

Huh.  Maybe with 1350hp this silken pig will actually get round a track faster than a Caterham.

Doesn't having an anniversary imply some sort of continuity? I mean there were fifty years or so where Bugatti didn't really exist as marque.
Maybe we need to start off small. I mean, they don't let you fuck the glumpers at Glumpees without a level 4 FuckPass, do they?

I think the car is traction limited in almost every circumstance. So, probably not.

If however, you take it to a restaurant and somebody else has the bad form of showing up in a plebian grade standard Veyron, the valets will move his off of the curb.

I get the feeling that they would probably find room for both.

Not necessarily, but the wind chill would definitely numb your exposed skin.
