Chassis No. VF9SP3V32KM795231

In the early 2000s, the automotive landscape witnessed the revival of the Bugatti marque under Volkswagen's stewardship. The result was the Bugatti Veyron 16.4, unveiled in 2005 as the first production car to surpass 1,000 PS and exceed 400 km/h, essentially birthing the modern "hypercar" segment. The Veyron shattered every preconception of how fast or how extravagant a road car could be, all while disproving the notion that a truly fast car must be unruly or spartan, remaining civilized enough to drive every day. As this technical tour de force assumed an almost mythical status, crowning its successor seemed an almost impossible task.

Yet Bugatti achieved exactly that at the 2016 Geneva Motor Show with the debut of the Chiron-named like its predecessor after a pre-war Bugatti racing driver. A hypercar that carried the marque's ethos of baroque excess and technical perfection to new extremes, the new model shared the Veyron's fundamental architecture-a mid-mounted W16 and all-wheel drive-but with reportedly 95-percent new components beneath the surface. Like its predecessor, the Chiron was produced in strictly limited numbers; over an eight-year production run concluding in 2024, only 500 examples were built.

The heart of the Chiron was Bugatti's 8.0-liter quad-turbocharged W16 engine tuned to deliver 1,500 PS and 1,600 Nm of torque-a colossal output channeled through a seven-speed dual-clutch gearbox and intelligent all-wheel-drive. Launch control and specialized drive modes allowed the Chiron to catapult from zero to 100 km/h in under 2.5 seconds and a top speed of 420 km/h, unlocked with the use of the Speed Key. Such performance was made usable by a suite of technological innovations: a lightweight carbon-fiber monocoque chassis with immense rigidity, an adaptive suspension, and a sophisticated stability control system to maintain traction. Active aerodynamics, including a hydraulically adjustable rear wing that also acted as an air brake, ensured high-speed stability and braking deceleration.

Equally compelling was the Chiron's exterior form, conceived under design director Etienne Salomé, who imbued the car with artful minimalism that distilled its lines into a seamless carbon-fiber exoskeleton. Drawing on the tradition of master artisans who crafted Bugatti's prewar masterpieces such as the Type 57 SC Atlantic-the Chiron's exterior was sculpted in the wind tunnel, yet hand-finished by master fabricators. The signature horseshoe grille flowed organically into jewel-like LED headlights, while the bold C-bar intakes not only funneled cooling air but also cut a dynamic side profile. Inside, a single-piece leather-wrapped dashboard swept into the center console in a continuous gesture, punctuated by exquisitely hand-stitched upholstery, machined metal controls, and digital displays. Every surface married bespoke coachbuilt handiwork with ergonomics to cocoon occupants in an environment as beautiful as it was functional.

At the 2018 Geneva Motor Show, Bugatti introduced the Chiron Sport, a more incisive, driver-focused evolution that maintained the W16's 1,500-PS output. Weight fell by around 18 kilograms through lighter wheels and expanded carbon-fiber use-down to production-first carbon wiper arms-while recalibrated chassis tuning brought adaptive dampers that were 10-percent stiffer in Handling mode, firmer steering effort, and a new rear-axle torque-vectoring system. Together, these measures delivered a five-second-quicker lap at the Nardò Ring than the standard Chiron. Car and Driver distilled the Chiron Sport's otherworldly performance succinctly, calling it "A car that's financially, dynamically, and cerebrally out of reach for mere mortals."

The 2020 Bugatti Chiron Sport offered here is one of just 60 examples produced. It was commissioned in a truly dramatic specification of Full Exterior Blue Carbon exterior matched by the Blue finish accenting the brake calipers. The iconic "horseshoe" grille surround and taillights are rendered in Nocturne black, as are the striking Caractere wheels. Inside, the cabin is swathed in two-tone Deep Blue & Grigio hides and a polished aluminum center console inlay, further elevated by the Comfort Package seats.

Now showing just 10,879 kilometers since new at the time of cataloging, this superb hypercar remains in excellent condition thanks to consistent maintenance performed by authorized Bugatti service centers. The service booklet contains annual stamps from Garage de l'Athénée in 2021 (7,482 km), Bugatti Zürich in 2022 (9,706 km), and Pichler GFG AG in 2023 (10,569 km). Most recently, the car returned to Bugatti Zürich in February 2024 at 10,810 km for an annual service in addition to several multi-year service items including changing the differential and gearbox oils, engine air filters, accessory belt, hydraulic system oil/filter, coolant, and A/C refrigerant. Additionally, a future service will be performed courtesy of Bugatti Zürich at the consignor's expense with the successful sale of the Bugatti. Further complementing its superb presentation are numerous original-delivery accessories including a complete set of owner's manuals, a car cover in a Bugatti-branded duffle bag, and its Speed Key, spare key, and "1 of 500" USB drive containing build specifications in the proper carbon-fiber presentation box.

This breathtaking Chiron Sport affords an opportunity to acquire a modestly driven example of Bugatti's epoch-defining hypercar in a bespoke, likely one-of-one specification. It also stands among the very last quad-turbo W16-powered Bugattis-a lineage that reached its conclusion in the limited-run Mistral roadster after nearly two decades of record-shattering performance. Chassis 795231 stands as a fitting finale to this legendary powerplant, which is sure to impress its new owner with its exceptional performance.
