Sadly, the last of the groundbreaking Bugatti Veyrons has just been sold this week, ending the very exclusive 300 production run of a vehicle that represents one of the greatest engineering feats in modern automotive history. As a final exclamation point on the truly landmark vehicle, Bugatti has teamed up with Berlin’s Königliche Porzellan-Manufaktur (Royal Porcelain Manufacturer) to create the “L’Or Blac”, or “White Gold” — the first car ever to incorporate fine porcelain into its body and cabin. Although fully functional, the one-off Grand Sport (the topless version of the Veyron) is considered an artistic piece, and has the pricetag to match: it’ll cost you $2.4 million (€1.65 million) to drive the world’s fastest piece of chinaware. Just don’t bump the curb while parking, I can’t imagine what it would cost to replace a porcelain quarter panel.

White gold would be L’Or Blanc, not Blac. You’re missing the “n”.
