The body color and interior trim are finished in a black and orange two-tone scheme, mirroring the record-setting car. As is characteristic of the "Veyron" with its carbon body, the exterior black finish allows the carbon weave pattern to be visible.

This is a limited edition of 8 units, priced at 1.99 million Euros (approximately 260 million yen).
