One of the highlights in Geneva was the (finally non blue-black) Veyron at the Bugatti stand. Towards the end of the day, I was allowed to take some photos from around and inside the stand. I like the color combo of this Veyron - for sure from the outside, the inside is too bright imo - but well, that's not relevant... enjoy the photos  :D

Oooh, nice.

Am I going mad - or are there some subtle changes?  Different wheels, new front grill and new front intakes?

I also liked the aluminum machine turned center console which this one does not have.

Subtle changes indeed, but I think it looks great. The colour combo is definitely better than the already classic black/blue that they've had always displayed at Geneva... very classy, but said that, I still don't get the point of this version. It's ok to have this kind of exclusive interior package in a Phantom or an Arnage, but in a performance car, I'd say that these changes should come accompanied also with some performance gain just to differentiate it from the regular version. Otherwise, you're paying a premium (and a very high one I'd say) for a new interior trim...  :no:

IMO it's around 350k€ extra for the HERMÈS "badge"  :?

What I find funny is that the standard Veyron, for 1.4M€ should already be "perfect", supposedly the best you can't get... but then they come with this kind of special versions... somehow admiting without saying, that the car can be improved: materials, quality, detailing...

I wouldn't pay 350K€ for that if you ask me, I'd rather have a second-hand Zonda, or a F40 for that price :wink:

Like I've said before, 0 excitement about that car. Now if they made a lightweight version of the Veyron, then I'd be interested.

I agree with you, but well special more expensive editions sell and if you can charge 350€ well go ahead and do it. I don't think the Veyron should be perfect, it's more about how much extra can you pay.
