Today I went to the 2012 Rétromobile salon held in Paris (http://www.retromobile.com/) from 1 to 5th February. A lot of vintage and classic cars were present, including this incredibly rare and beautiful Bugatti Type 57 SC Atlantic.
Only 4 models of this car were made in the world (this particular one is chassis n° 57374). This car was first sold to Mr. Rothschild in september 1936, and had the exact same color combination as it has today: metallic silver/blue paintjob and a blue leather interior. This car won the 2003 Pebble beach concorso d'eleganza, and is said to be one of the best-looking car in the world due to the purity of its lines.
The Bugatti Type 57 SC Atlantic is well known for other reasons. First of all, it's a very rare car: only 4 exist in the world. The most famous model is without a doubt Ralph Lauren's black one. It is one of the most desirable classic cars, a must-have for a car collector. This explains the price tag of this car: in 2010, this particular car was sold at an auction for a price of +30 million $! That's right, thirty million US dollars... expensive, don't you think? :)
The car now belongs to the Mullin Automotie Museum in California.
