It reaches 60 mph in approximately 2.46 seconds. This is an average acceleration of 1.18 g.Bugatti Supercar Now More Ridiculous On Tuesday, Bugatti unveiled a limited-edition version of its Veyron supercar at the Geneva auto show. Could it be faster? Does it handle better? Is it even more streamlined to exceed the original’s stated top speed of 253 miles an hour?No. Bugatti teamed up with the French leather and silk specialist Hermès to create a special model that will cost $2.3 million (not including tax). Wait, is that Richie firing up the motorboat? Tell him to hold on because it gets better, or worse.This extraordinary piece of lavishness is called the Bugatti Veyron Fbg par Hermès. And if you don’t know what Fbg means — Rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré in Paris, where you’ll find Hermès headquarters — then you’re obviously not fabulously exclusive enough to put a deposit on such chic wonderfulness.Here’s a choice excerpt from the press release:"The inner surfaces of the Bugatti Veyron Fbg par Hermès have been designed and sheathed in bull calfskin by the Hermès workshops in Paris. The care and attention to detail observe an extremely refined, minimalist formal vocabulary, reflecting the tradition of the very first Bugattis and the fundamental design principles of the house of Hermès. The door handles echo the fluid forms of handles on Hermès travel bags and luggage. And the dashboard, traditionally finished in brushed aluminium, is here clad entirely in bull calfskin. Passengers aboard the Bugatti Veyron Fbg par Hermès will find a dashboard glove compartment designed to hold a selection of small travel accessories and a zipped Hermès wallet. Both seats are covered in two-toned bull calfskin, and the panel separating the cockpit from the central rear engine - traditionally made of carbon fibre — is covered in the same fine leather. The leather-lined trunk holds a specially-fitted “Toile H” and leather case, hand-made by craftsmen from the Hermès workshops."Apparently bull calfskin is big this year.</blockquote>
