Top 10 RAREST & most EXPENSIVE BUGATTI Supercars Ever Million Dollar Cars

It’s no surprise that Bugatti is one of the most expensive car brands on the planet, with their latest Veyron models coming in at a hefty $1.5 million. Bugatti has always built their brand around being the most prestigious, but most importantly the fastest cars on the market. The Veyron manages an impressive top speed of 252 mph, making it the fastest production car in the world by a distance.

Attention to detail, craftsmanship and elegance appears to be in the company’s DNA, but founder Ettore Bugatti always had a passion for speed and many of the old classics were used precisely for that; in high profile racing events.

Founded in 1909, Bugatti soon became a world renowned aspirational luxury car brand, however it wasn’t until the 1930’s that the golden years for the brand really set in. All five of the most expensive Bugattis to sell at auction came from this innovative era. Initially, Ettore Bugatti designed and approved his fleet of cars; however, his son Jean proved to be extremely talented in the automotive design field, and some of his eccentric designs (which his Father thought would be too outlandish and attempted to discourage) proved to become timeless classics, with a few of them featuring in the prestigious top five list.

1931 Bugatti Type 51 Grand Prix Racing Two Seater

Coming in at number five on this big hitter list of most expensive Bugattis is the 1931 Type 51 Grand Prix Racing Two Seater. The car, although still in great condition, may appear slightly worn for the whooping price tag paid at auction. This is the unique part of the car that ultimately makes it a masterpiece that has stood the test of time, with some deeming the car as ‘immortal’.

Famously, Ettore Bugatti based the design of the type 51 upon the powerful racing design of the all-American car brand Miller. The Italian racing car was famously contested by Earl Howe, who entered the car in extremely high-profile events such as the Monaco Grand Prix. Although this was his cherished car to get his stellar racing career going, he never had much success in the Bugatti. The car sold at Bonhams’ Quail Lodge Auction in Carmel, California in August 2016 for an impressive $4,000,000 (£3,088,800).

1937 Bugatti Type 57SC Atalante

This car is almost reminiscent of the Batmobile, with its sleek low design, and jet black paintwork, it is easy to see why this would be a classic collectors dream car. The car, again was designed by Bugatti founder Ettore’s son Jean. It comes in extremely authentic condition, and given that this is one of only 17 Atlante’s ever made and the fact that it retains its original chassis, engine and coachwork; this makes this car even more rare and desirable. The Atlante is a highly-decorated car, awarded first in class and the French Cup at Pebble Beach, with its illustrious life documented by famous Bugatti historian Julius Kruta. The Bugatti sold at Gooding & Co. Pebble Beach Auction 2013 for $8,745,000 (£6,752,889).

1932 Bugatti Type 55 Roadster

Described by Gooding & Co. as ‘arguably the finest Type 55 Jean Bugatti roadster around’, the highly-coveted super car is famously a road-going version of the type 51 Grand Prix racing car. Although the car was built for road and not the track, the Bugatti entered in the famous Mille Miglia race in Italy on its first year of production under Jean Bugatti. However, the car, for whatever reason did not finish. Since then the Bugatti has passed through many different hands, both in mainland Europe and the U.S. with exacting restoration completed on the type 55 in 2013 by Marque Authority Laurent Rondoni. The car eventually sold for a staggering $10,400,000 (£8,030,880) and would be the main talking point of the Gooding & Co. Pebble Beach Auction 2016.

Bugatti EB110 SS

The Bugatti EB 110 was unveiled on 15 September 1991, in both Versailles and in front of the Grande Arche de la Défense in Paris, exactly 110 years after Ettore Bugatti's birth.

In 1992, a lighter and more powerful model with 612 PS (450 kW; 604 hp) at 8250 rpm, the EB 110 SS ("Supersport") was introduced. This car is capable of 216 mph (348 km/h) and 0-100 km/h (62 mph) in 3.2 seconds.
