Pebble Beach Preview: Delahaye Bella Fugura Bugnotti 57S


On its way to a debut August's Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance is this number one stunner: the Delahaye Bella Figura Bugnotti 57S.
Developed in concert with Revolution Design Studios and drawing inspiration from the Bugatti Type 57S, it's meant as a tribute to Jean, Ettore Bugatti's son.
The Bugnotti's carbon fiber body was crafted with help from 3G Services. Delahaye will offer "a carbon fiber finish where you can see the weave of the cloth through a clear coat. Or you can have your choice of a painted body of carbon fiber and composite, or all composite." There will be three body styles available: Coupe, Drophead Coupe, or Targa.
It will be offered as a fully-assembled turn-key model or a body/rolling chassis so owners can insert whatever crazy source of power they desire (What's that? You want a turbo-diesel Audi V12?).
No matter what's under the hood, this thing is drop-dead gorgeous.
