[/align][/align][align=center]WoW [:-][/align][/align][/align][align=center]Slideshow: Bugatti Veyron Fgb par Hermes >>[/align][align=center]Slideshow: Best of Geneva >>[/align][align=center]This rather long appendage to the Bugatti nameplate reflects a relationship that the factory says goes back to 1927 when Ettore Bugatti sought fitted luggage from the Parisian design house.[/align][align=center]That relationship has come full circle in this limited-edition Bugatti with styling cues developed by Hermes. The Fgp appellation refers to Hermes' headquarters on Rue du Faubourge Saint Honore in Paris.[/align][align=center] [/align][align=center][/align][align=center]Slideshow >>[/align][align=center]It's not just a color and paint trim package, although the sand-colored hood and rear decklid are the first indications that this package is special. The face of the car has been revamped with a brushed-aluminum trademark horse collar grille now flanked with a panel with two air inlets. All the mesh grilles — including the main radiator opening, lower inlets — engine air snorkels aft of the passenger cabin and the rocker panel inlets now have a pattern that reflect the Hermes "H" motif.[/align][align=center]Inside, sand-colored leather covers all the surfaces, and even the inside door pulls have been reconfigured to looks more like luggage latches than door handles.[/align][align=center]Bespoke leather on the interior, and Hermes logos on the wheel hubs and fuel-filler door speak to the car's pedigree. The car retains its legendary performance from its 1001-bhp V-16 quad-turbocharged engine, which enables a factory-claimed 0–62-mph run of 2.6 seconds. The price? Nearly $2 million.

I'd still take Ultimate Areo over either of those, but especially over the Bugatti.
Or maybe just the ZR1, it's what? A twentieth of the price of those two, and half of the Areo.

I'll take the Ferrari. The car that was made on the laps of 15 year old virgin Italian girls.

Oooops, that's only refers to cigars doesn't it?
