Bugatti has unveiled today at the 2014 Geneva Auto show the fourth Bugatti legends model which honors Rembrandt Bugatti, brother of Ettore. The Rembrandt Bugatti is based on the Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Grand Sport Vitesse and is distinguished by its two-tone brown and bronze color scheme.
“Rembrandt Bugatti had a special talent for capturing the movement of animals at their most expressive moment,” explains Achim Anscheidt, Head Designer at Bugatti. “The patina, the soul and the crafted character of his bronze sculptures guided us to the colour and material choices in the Legend car that carries his name.”
Under the hood it’s a 8.0-litre W16 engine producing an incredible 1,200hp and 1,100lb ft of torque, at 3,000–5,000 rpm, and can accelerate from 0–100 km in 2.6 seconds. The interior is upholstered light brown leather, Bugatti calls the color “cognac” and emblazoned with the elephant symbol throughout. The supercar will be limited to three units, each being priced at €2.18 million (Appprox. $3,000,000 USD)
If you’re curious about the rest of the lineup, check out the other Legends of Bugatti Veyron editions: the Jean-Pierre Wimille, the Jean Bugatti, the Meo Costantini, the Black Bess, and the Ettore Bugatti edition that closed out the series.
