The monster motor, featuring iconic 'butterfly' doors, has a top speed of 277mph. Last September, Haaland bought a brand new £250,000 Mercedes Maybach.

Bugatti Tourbillon Options Top $960K—More Than a Veyron Once Cost
Read the full story on Modern Car Collector For the select few configuring a new Bugatti Tourbillon, the term 'options list' might as well read 'second mortgage.' A leaked configuration sheet circulating online has revealed just how deep buyers can dig into their pockets to personalize Bugatti's newest hypercar—with optional extras totaling a jaw-dropping $960,000. That's nearly the price of an entire Bugatti Veyron when it launched in the mid-2000s. Originally shared by the Tourbillon Registry Instagram account and later archived by The Supercar Blog, the document outlines individual costs for some of the most extravagant options offered by the French marque. A Matt Vermillion Carbon exterior finish rings in at $360,000, and if the buyer wants that paint in a matte finish, that's an additional $60,000. The Pur Sang aero package with eight tailpipes and unique bodywork adds $240,000. Need your exhaust tips blacked out? That's $15,000. Want your wheels in two-tone? Another $20,000. And for those who like a bit of dazzle on the dash, $65,000 can outfit the instrument panel with rose gold gears and dark gray needles—yes, just the needles themselves cost $15,000. If luggage is on your mind, Bugatti offers a three-piece set—including two garment bags and a weekend duffel—for $35,000. And to protect that six-figure paintwork, a clear stone chip guard (essentially a high-end wrap) is listed at $25,000. All told, this particular build pushed the Tourbillon's already lofty $4.6 million base price to over $5.5 million. Still, for the clientele who can afford a Tourbillon, these add-ons are less about utility and more about exclusivity. As the brand's latest technological showcase, the Tourbillon marks a new era for Bugatti—where even the options are headline-grabbers. Follow us on Facebook and Twitter

Is Rimac Looking to Buy Porsche Out of Its Stake in Bugatti?
Less than five years ago, Porsche and Rimac teamed up to give the storied Bugatti brand a new lease on life, in the form of a new company called Bugatti-Rimac. Now, however, a new report suggest that Rimac Group might buy Porsche out of the partnership. It would give Rimac complete and total control, or even allow it to partner with other investors. This new report comes from Bloomberg, which cites "people familiar with the matter." The report claims that Rimac Group recently approached Porsche about buying its 45% stake in Bugatti-Rimac, and that Rimac valued the joint venture at slightly over €1 billion ($1.1 billion). All three of these brands have close ties, including Porsche owning a 22% stake in Rimac itself. Porsche, for its part, wouldn't comment on the deal, but did state that it's always evaluating how it can optimize its business for shareholders. (Interestingly, Porsche reportedly previously considered buying Rimac out of its stake in Bugatti.) For Porsche, selling off its stake in Bugatti-Rimac could allow it to refocus that new capital elsewhere. Considering the volatile state of the automotive industry in 2025, simplification seems like a potentially prudent strategy — one that could let Porsche focus more on streamlining supply chains or even moving production to the United States. Bugatti, of course, is on the verge of launching its third generation of hypercar: the Bugatti Tourbillon is currently in the works with deliveries expected to begin in 2026. It combines a massive V-16 engine with a trio of electric motors for a total system output of 1,800 horsepower. There's little doubt that expertise from all the brands involved went into its creation. At the same time, Mate Rimac has made it clear that he would've gone even further with the Tourbillon if he could've; speaking to Road & Track last year, he confessed that he wanted to add at least three more features to the car. Whether this potential deal regarding Bugatti's ownership goes through or not, you can be sure that those ideas, and others, are still floating around in his head for future projects. Either way, we'll be excited to see what Rimac and Bugatti create next. You Might Also Like You Need a Torque Wrench in Your Toolbox Tested: Best Car Interior Cleaners The Man Who Signs Every Car

Bugatti Just Made the New Tourbillon Hypercar Even Better
Are you concerned the new Bugatti Tourbillon isn't ridiculous enough? Don't worry, the marque has you covered. The French automaker has just unveiled the first option package for its third modern-day hypercar. Dubbed the Équipe Pur Sang, the upgrade celebrates the company's racing-rich history and adds several new elements, including six additional exhaust tips. More from Robb Report This $10 Million Brooklyn Townhouse Blends Historic Charm with Bleeding-Edge Sustainability L.A. Reid Relists His Swanky Bel Air Mansion for a Discounted $17.5 Million A $4 Million Renovation Turned This Miami Estate Into a Family-Friendly Paradise The Bugatti name may be most closely associated with exclusivity these days, but in its early days, the automaker was a major player on the track. The company was a dominant force in racing between the wars, its cars taking checkered flags at the inaugural Monaco Grand Prix in 1929 and twice at the 24 Hours of Le Mans the next decade. The new option package—the name of which translates, in English, to 'Team Thoroughbred'—is meant to pay tribute to this heritage. The Tourbillon Équipe Pur Sang may not look radically different from the base hypercar, but eagle-eyed observers will notice a couple of subtle tweaks. These include a new front splitter, upgraded directional wheels, and a deployable rear wing with small endplates to increase downforce and stability. The biggest changes can be found in the rear, where the standard two-pipe exhaust system now features eight tips. This is complemented by a reworked diffuser which helps improve aerodynamic efficiency. Inside the vehicle, you'll find new embroidered details on the dashboard and headrests. Performance seats designed to offer enhanced lateral support in the corners also come standard. The Tourbillon's hybrid powertrain remains untouched. It's not hard to see why engineers have chosen to leave well enough alone. The setup, which pairs a naturally aspirated 8.3-liter V-16 with a trio of electric motors, makes a combined 1,800 hp and 1,464 ft lbs of torque. All that power is enough to rocket the car from zero to 60 mph in two seconds flat and to a targeted top speed of 276 mph. 'With the Équipe Pur Sang option, we elevate its appearance towards the track, enabling customers to celebrate the pure racing soul that has defined Bugatti for over a century,' Hendrik Malinowski, the managing director of Bugatti, said in a statement. Has your interest been piqued? Just be prepared to spend. Bugatti has yet to announce how much the Équipe Pur Sang option package will cost, but expect to add a significant amount to the Tourbillon's $4.1 million starting of Robb Report The 2024 Chevy C8 Corvette: Everything We Know About the Powerful Mid-Engine Beast The World's Best Superyacht Shipyards The ABCs of Chartering a Yacht Click here to read the full article.

Buying a Bugatti Tourbillon? Be Sure You Check the Box for 8 Tailpipes
You have already reserved your Bugatti Tourbillon, right? The 16-cylinder masterpiece was revealed nine months ago, so you've had plenty of time to get your $4.6 million together and put your order in. If so, congratulations! It's time to option your Bugatti, and one of those options is a package that includes a ridiculous eight tailpipes. That pipe-heavy option is called Équipe Pur Sang, a package meant to pay tribute to the brand's extensive pre-war racing history. The option, which Bugatti says translates roughly to "thoroughbred team," also includes a special front splitter, rear wing, and rear diffuser. Carbon fiber engine cover inlays complete the bodywork changes. Inside, Équipe Pur Sang cars will come with unique embroidery and what Bugatti calls a "medium carbon fiber" interior package. Alcantara-finished performance seats are standard with the package, as are wheels unique to the option set. (No word on whether you can also custom-order a cup holder.) Bugatti says that all Tourbillon customers will work directly with brand representatives at either the brand's Molsheim factory or at a retail location to spec their cars. 23 new exterior paint colors, 20 new leather variations, 10 new Alcantara options, and seven new carpet colors headline the selections Bugatti owners can pick from when speccing their unique car. Most Bugattis will be built using that tool set, but some Tourbillons will likely hit the road with even more unique choices, as with the the "Golden Era" Chiron Super Sport revealed in 2023. Bugatti only plans to make 250 Tourbillons, so each of the V-16 hybrids should be fairly unique. Production is set to start next year.
