its one-off Chiron Profilée this week, giving the world’s wealthiest car fans their last ever chance to buy a brand new W16-powered Molsheim missile. The entire Chiron production run is sold out, so lot 177 at RM Sotheby’s Paris sale on February 1 really is a fairly significant sale.
The car itself is also pretty special. Designed in response to customer requests for something more extreme thanless track-focused than the Pur Sport, it could have spawned a short production run, but Bugatti had no spare production capacity so it ended up being a one-off. The Profilée name was borrowed from aero-conscious cars from Bugatti’s back catalog and the modern version also features a similar upswept tail not seen on any other Chiron. It also features a unique design of alloy wheel and a special color scheme that fuses a light Argent Atlanique silver blue with a Blue Royal Carbon tint for the lower sections of exposed composite bodywork.
There’s more blue in the cabin, which gets special woven leather trim on the door trims and center tunnel to deliver a far more luxurious feel than in the Alcantara-covered Pur Sport. But more alike under the skin thanks to the Profilée’s suspension setup, which features stiffer springs and more negative camber than the Chiron Sport.Both the Profilée and Pur Sport use the standard 1,479 hp quad-turbo W16 engine fitted to the base Chiron, rather than the 1,578 hp version found in the Super Sport, and Centodieci.
