Take a look inside Bugatti’s Grand Sport Vitesse delivery process

As you can see, the car arrives in a dedicated semi, shrouded in soft, vented wrapping. Why does a car need air holes, you ask? Probably to the keep the intakes unobstructed during startup, but it does make the car feel alive.

The wheels are further protected by individual pieces of foam and cloth, held together by zip ties. The convertible top holder, as well as the special cloths used for roof removal, come in a separate box.

Clearly, this isn’t like leasing a Lincoln from a strip mall lot.

As the Bugatti gradually sheds it protective layers and slips into its flamboyant street clothes, the car’s custom color scheme emerges. Berke says Bugatti’s artisans used the lights inside their paint booth as inspiration for the design, taping off the overhead lamp’s reflections and spraying around them. The striking red and black motif continues inside the car as well.
