Idle Time is the Devils Playground...

800pxbugatti_veyron "Dear Mr Schilling,

The current order bank status is a little over one year, which would mean if you were to sign a contract and pay a deposit today, we would forecast a delivery of the end of the first quarter 2008.

Until April 15th, the price of the car is €1m ex works ( excluding all taxes, customs, delivery charges etc)After April 15th the price will change to  €1,100,000.All orders and deposits received before this date will be price protected.

There really are no options to offer on the car, though a choice of seat ( Sport or comfort) is possible. Of course colours for the Exterior and Interior can be made, and at the end of March we will have a configurator available on the Bugatti website, where you can walk through the options available.

I must tell you that we really do not have the space at Molsheim to offer the service you are requesting, but perhaps one of the swiss partners we have ( in Zurich or Geneva) could accommodate this. We can enquire on your behalf if you would like and let me know where you want to keep the car.

As far as the buying process is concerned, in order to purchase the car you would need to undertake a contract directly with Bugatti SAS, France, and place a deposit of €300,000 into the Bugatti Bank account. This deposit is non returnable except in the case of non delivery of the car. Three months before delivery we need to have confirmed the colour choice.

My proposal would be that you try to make a visit to seeand drive the car in Molsheim, ( nr Strasbourg, France) and then we can progress from there.

Kind regards
Yours sincerely"

I seriously considered this..  but finally decided its just not worth it, because I'd need to buy a house to keep it at (this is not an island car).  Still interesting info from the factory for the 3 car guys who I know read this blog.

Hey Frank,

You need a house to park this baby at? I'm thinking of building a place and we could custom design a bullet-proof, fire proof, glass-enclosed garage/safe to store this baby in. It'd only be a 5 hour direct flight away!
