The Last Bugatti Veyron SS is For Sale

RM Sotheby’s is starting the new year off right, offering you the chance to own the very last Bugatti Veyron Super Sport ever produced.

This Veyron SS, serial number three hundred (it’s fancier when you spell it out, just ask my neighbors) will cross the the auction block next month and is expected to take home about $2.5 million.

The white on white Veyron Super Sport was first purchased in Miami (shocker) and was later shown at the Geneva Motor Show.

Although it’s now four years old, I guess it wasn’t much fun to drive, because in that time it’s only covered 400 miles, a shocking 269 of which were added by Bugatti under testing.

The buyer will also have a hard time finding parts for this car, as only eight of the total 48 made were designed for sale in the US.

For all of that inconvenience, you get as much power as a lightly modified Mk2 Golf. That’s right, you’ll command the combined power of twelve hundred horses. Bid on this and many more fancy-pants cars, in Arizona at RM Sotheby’s January auction.

Review: Saying Goodbye to the CC V6

For all its size and its global reach, Volkswagen is still, in many ways, a deeply human company. There was, for instance, the Bugatti Veyron an ego project if ever there was one. Then the purchase of Ducati, a move most called folly. And then there was the Phaeton, the Volkswagen that most folks can’t afford. Not only were these moves all strange, I’m sure that they made VW’s accountants furious. None of them made good business sense, but they were all deeply interesting and they all are evidence of the heart that beats at the center of VW. Among these follies is the CC, a car that everyone agrees is rakishly handsome, but that no one really wanted to buy. The car couldn’t last, but the world is brighter for its having been in it. With the approach debut of the Arteon, it seems like a good time to look back on its sadly departing predecessor. The version I drove, because I live in Canada, is a V6 Wolfsburg Edition, which apparently isn’t available in the States. Nor is the V6, not as

Waterfest Moves to Atco Dragway

Waterfest 24 will be held at Atco Dragway, in Atco, New Jersey. The summer event will take place at its new venue on July 21 and 22. Long held in Englishtown, New Jersey, the festival has been such a large part of the VW scene that the latest iteration of the Golf even comes with optional “Englishtown” wheels . The new venue, however, is an NHRA drag track a scant 52 miles southwest of Englishtown. The ¼ mile drag track opened in 1960, which makes it the oldest drag strip in New Jersey. The announcement came today on a social media post that announced the new location. Waterfest is North America’s largest VW/Audi show. As many 20,000 people show up for the annual show, making the second largest show in the world—with Worthersee being number one. 2018 will be Waterfest’s 24 th year in existence.
