Great Drive: 2010 Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Grand Sport
2010 Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Grand Sport - Bugatti Droptop Convertible Review - Automobile Magazine
From the Mediterranean to the Adriatic--and back again--in the world's fastest and most expensive droptop, the Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport.

I didn't even touch the speed key, which unlocks the Bugatti Veyron's full top-speed potential. For our entire journey, it remained in the pocket of PHR, short for Pierre-Henri Raphanel, Bugatti's official test driver, minder, and former F1 racer. There was certainly no point in going faster than 233 mph, the Veyron's maximum speed without the key, nor would there be any opportunity on public roads. We were piloting one of two Bugatti Veyron Grand Sports, and the main objective of our drive was to go as quickly as possible from Ladispoli, which is northwest of Rome on the Mediterranean, to the Adriatic city of Pescara, thereby cutting across the lower leg of Italy.
