The Bugatti Chiron Super Sport Golden Era has been unveiled as a unique and meticulously adorned tribute to the rich history of the French luxury brand. This special edition, designed to the specifications of a highly esteemed customer, pays homage to Bugatti's iconic W16 engine and the historic models that have solidified the company's reputation as one of the world's most renowned luxury brands.

The standout feature of the Bugatti Chiron Super Sport Golden Era is its hand-drawn mural, which showcases 45 of Bugatti's most significant models. This intricate artwork required over 400 hours of meticulous craftsmanship, a process that Bugatti itself described as "extremely intimidating". The ink used for the mural was specially developed for longevity, ensuring that it will withstand the test of time throughout the car's lifespan.

On the passenger door, the mural depicts 26 cars, including the illustrious Type 41 Royale, which was hailed as the epitome of luxury upon its launch in 1926. Another notable inclusion is the Type 57 SC Atlantic, a personal favorite of Achim Anscheidt, Bugatti's former design director who oversaw this remarkable project. The driver's side of the car showcases sketches of Bugatti's more recent models, such as the EB110, Veyron, and the Chiron itself, representing the "modern" era of the brand.

In a fitting tribute to Bugatti's iconic 16-cylinder engine, which has been a cornerstone of the brand for the past two decades, the doors of the Chiron Super Sport Golden Era feature sketched representations of the 3712 components that make up the engine. This attention to detail further emphasizes the significance of Bugatti's engineering prowess.

The entire car is adorned in a striking two-tone color scheme, with Doré gold and Nocturne black creating a visually captivating contrast. This combination adds to the overall elegance and exclusivity of the Bugatti Chiron Super Sport Golden Era.

Achim Anscheidt, who recently retired from his role as Bugatti's chief designer, expressed his admiration for the creativity of Bugatti's customers. He stated that while special commissions of this magnitude are rare, Bugatti takes immense pride in helping customers bring their dreams to life. The Bugatti Chiron Super Sport Golden Era stands as a testament to the brand's commitment to excellence and its ability to fulfill the unique desires of its discerning clientele.
