French automaker Bugatti took to the Dubai Motor Show to introduce the third model in the “Les Légendes de Bugatti“ series – the Veyron Vitesse Meo Costantini. The new Veyron commemorates Bartolomeo “Meo” Costantini, head of Bugatti’s factory race team, two-time Targa Florio winner in a Bugatti Type 35 and a close friend of the company’s founder, Ettore Bugatti. Like the other Legend specials, the Costantini edition is powered by a 8.0-liter, quad-turbo W16 engine producing 1,200-horsepower, and can accelerate from 0–100 km (0 to 62 mph) in 2.6 seconds; and a top speed of 408.84 km (253 mph). At the exterior the Vitesse Legend “Meo Costantini” is primarily constructed of carbon fiber, featurring exposed polished aluminum trim and a French Racing Blue paint scheme on the carbon fiber panels. Inside it’s all cognac and dark blue leather with light blue stitching, and images of period race cars laser-etched into both door panels. Only three examples of this expensive hypercar will be made sporting a cool €2.09 million (Approx. $2.81million) price tag… plus taxes.
