This car is named Bugatti La Voiture Noir which successfully became a Bugatti star at one of the biggest automotive exhibitions in the world. La Voiture Noir is French which means 'The Black Car,' it turns out to have a price tag of around US. $12.5 million, equivalent to Rp.176.5 billion (off the road). If prices are combined with taxes, the total price will reach US. $18.9 million or equivalent to Rp.267 billion. Wow ...!

The concept of presenting La Voiture Noir originated from the intention of the French premium auto manufacturer to reminisce with one of their legendary Bugatti car of the 30s, namely Bugatti Type 57SC Atlantic or known as the Bugatti Atlantic Coupe. Well, this reincarnation moment also coincides with the celebration of 110 years of Bugatti's existence in the world automotive industry.

The car's powertrain is using the same engine as the Bugatti Chiron Sport considering that it still uses the same base. Yes, it's still relying on a 816 cc W16 configured drive mechanics that can strike the power of 1,499 horsepower and 1,599 Nm of torque.

Since this is a special car, there are some differences between La Voiture Noir and Chiron. Starting from the side of La Voiture Noir, it does not seem to have the shape of a C-type door that is a characteristic of Bugatti cars. The difference also lies in the front and rear of the car, where on the back of La Voiture Noir has six exhaust pipes, just like its grandfather the Atlantic Coupe which also has six exhaust pipes. 

For those of you who are interested in this car and feel enough money to have it, but you probably have to bite your fingers and be patient. Because this car has reportedly been owned, and has become a collection of former Volkswagen boss, Ferdinand Piech.
While the status of La Voiture Noir as the most expensive car on earth might still be debated by many among the world's automotive lovers. Considering last year, the rival British premium automotive company Rolls-Royce released the latest variant called Rolls-Royce Sweptail which is priced at a price of US. $13 million. So which car is entitled to the status of the most expensive car in the world? *** [EKA | FROM VARIOUS SOURCES | AUTOCAR]
