Bugatti Veyron goes topless

The wraps are off a drop-top version of Bugatti's Veyron at last! Called the Grand Sport, the roofless supercar has been in the pipeline for many years and will finally make its official world debut at the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance on 16th August.

Featuring a removable roof, the 1,001bhp supercar will certainly offer a wind-in-the-hair experience. Bugatti says it will use "innovative structural solutions" to compensate for the loss of stiffness that comes with chopping the roof off. Other new details include incredible LED lights at the front. 

Bugatti will be holding an auction at Pebble Beach allowing mega-rich investors to fight over who gets the rights to own the first model. As for the rest of the limited production run, expect a price tag even larger than that of the £840,000 fixed roof model.
