Gold plated Bugatti Veyron!
Infamous supercar tuning company Mansory tweaks the Bugatti Veyron. 1109bhp and golden carbonfibre.
Needs more Carbon Fiber!
Meet the Mansory Veyron mk2. Not content with modifying Bugatti’s finest once (see its 2008 effort here), the now infamous Swiss tuner has again tweaked a Veyron, this time with severely eye-grabbing results.
Attention immediately turns to its rather special golden carbonfibre finish. It’s achieved via a copper thread that’s woven into the carbonfibre, providing the archetypal £1million+ supercar carbonfibre look but with added shine. It’s complemented by a number of gold-finished items, such as the grille surround, fuel filler cap and side mirrors. Matching gold wheels and excessively long strips of daytime LED lights complete the makeover.
Sat in the middle of the car is a more potent version of the Bugatti Veyron’s ‘regular’ 8-litre quad turbocharged engine: an improved cold air induction system and optimized exhaust sees power climb from 1001 to 1109bhp, while torque grows from 922 to 966lb ft. There’s no word on what that does for the hypercar’s 253mph top speed and 2.5sec 0-62mph time, but we’d expect the added weight from Mansory’s lavish tweaking to negate any power gains.
Mansory hasn’t revealed a price for its one-off Bugatti Veyron Linea Vincero d’Oro, but expect it to be almost as big as the car’s name.
