Isn’t the Veyron already limited edition just by virtue of them only selling like 300 of them?

Please correct me if I’m wrong, but I believe you’re referring to the Pur Sang, the “pure blood,” when you reference the unpainted Veyron. The Sang Noir does use unpainted carbon fiber, but is painted black elsewhere. It retains the Veyron’s standard two-tone appearance through the nearly-black carbon fiber/black paint scheme. The Sang Noir and the Grand Sport each come with their own exclusive wheels, different than those on the Veyron or the Pur Sang.

As of about six months ago, if I remember correctly, 220 had been purchased. (Nearly 140 delivered?) About 80 are produced each year.

What I wouldn’t give to see any Veyron in person…

Wait, they want to sell 300 Veyrons or 300 Veyron roadsters?

If they’re only out to sell 300 Veyrons total, and the car’s been in development for years, and they don’t have any other products…. how are they in business? Did some billionaire prince fund them or what?
