At roughly $3million, over N5billion, the Bugatti Chiron has emerged as one of the most expensive production cars to ever reach showrooms.
Starting at the front, the Sweptail’s grille is larger than any car’s of the modern era, milled from solid aluminum before hand-polished to a mirror finish. The registration number certainly won’t change on this one, while the crystal Spirit of Ecstasy hood ornament was lifted straight off Rolls-Royce’s 103EX future concept.
