This automotive marvel is the brainchild of an enigmatic Bugatti connoisseur, one who reveres the automaker's storied legacy of over a century. The culmination of their vision, the Golden Era, emerged after two painstaking years of dedicated craftsmanship. A staggering 400 hours were poured into the creation, with meticulous attention bestowed upon the artwork that graces both flanks of the car. Each stroke of genius is meticulously hand-drawn by the artisan using a special pen, a process as intricate as it is demanding. Bugatti proudly heralds this creation as one of its most ambitious custom undertakings, a testament to the brand's unyielding pursuit of excellence. |

Achim Anscheidt, the former maestro of Bugatti's design realm, orchestrated this endeavor. With a resolute commitment to authenticity – a quintessential facet of Bugatti's ethos – Anscheidt and his team embarked on an extraordinary journey. "From the inception, it was resoundingly clear that authenticity could only be achieved through the very instrument of creation, the pen, that we employ to trace our visions onto paper," he elucidates. The endeavor required an unorthodox approach, a process that seamlessly integrated the tactile finesse of hand-drawn sketches with the car's very paintwork.
