Bugatti unveils one-off W16 Mistral La Perle Rare
Bugatti’s Sur Mesure division has revealed a one‑off W16 Mistral called La Perle Rare commissioned by a private client.
The car wears two bespoke finishes — a warm gold for the upper surfaces and a refined warm white below — created through hundreds of hours of hand masking and two newly developed paint recipes.
Mechanically the roadster is unchanged, retaining the 8.0‑liter quad‑turbo W16 and the Mistral’s 1,578 hp output.
Who is involved: Bugatti’s Sur Mesure team led by Jascha Straub and an anonymous client who first commissioned the brief at Pebble Beach.
The specification includes diamond‑cut alloy wheels finished to match the two‑tone scheme and white‑painted carbon interior elements with gold linework and warm ambient lighting.
Why it matters: the commission showcases the technical depth of Bugatti’s bespoke division, underscores continuing buyer demand for highly personalised hypercars, and will likely increase the collectibility and private value of Mistral examples.
Bugatti Mistral you can buy at VIPCAR International.
