This year's Amelia Concours d'Elegance was packed with more than 100 classic vehicles, ranging from 1960s muscle and 1970s race cars to 1980s and 1990s supercars. But the event also saw a few modern cars join in. The Hennessey Venom F5 was one of them and it made quite the racket by flexing its massively powerful, twin-turbo V8 engine.
The Bugatti Centodieci looks frighteningly fast around the Nurburgring.
Just last week, we got a closer look at the limited-production Bugatti Centodieci as our spies spotted a prototype being thrashed around the Nurburgring. As one of the world s most demanding race tracks, the Nurburgring is the ultimate proving ground, allowing Bugatti to test a car s dynamics and finetune the chassis before customer deliveries begin.
YouTuber Misha Charoudin was lucky enough to be taken for the world s first passenger ride around the Nurburgring in the Bugatti Centodieci. In a scenario most of us can only dream about, Misha could only choose one car for the high-speed, one-lap passenger ride: the Bugatti Centodieci, Divo, Chiron Pur Sport, or the record-smashing Chiron Super Sport 300+.
In the video above, the first Bugatti to make an appearance is the Chiron Pur Sport. Marketed as a more corner-ready Chiron, it has a revised gearbox with shorter ratios and a lot more aero, including a massive fixed rear wing. Just 60 will be built, making it the least exclusive of the bunch.
Next up is what we consider to be the coolest car of the bunch: The Chiron Super Sport 300+. At first glance, it doesn t look all too different from a normal Chiron. But the unique front and rear fascias, extended body lines, and funky dual vertical exhausts are all hints this is something even more special. A version of this car eclipsed 304 mph back in 2019, making it the first production car to do so.

As Bugatti applies the finishing touches and finetunes the chassis, our spies have spotted a working prototype of the Centodieci carving up the Nurburgring.
This pre-prototype has retained the same design cues as the concept that debuted at Pebble Beach back in 2019. At the front, the Centodieci s smaller horseshoe grille, low-slung front spoiler, and horizontal slats on the bumper pay homage to the EB110, combined with ultra-slim LED headlights. Other design elements inspired by the EB110 include a wraparound windshield, a fixed rear wing, and five round side air vents. Like the La Voiture Noire, the Centodieci was also built to commemorate Bugatti s 110th anniversary - Centodieci is Italian for 110.
