The two-toned blue stunner was designed to pay tribute to the 1937 Bugatti 57G Tank, and is named after its LeMans-winning driver.

The car is part of Bugatti's exclusive six-part Legends edition series of the Veyron 16.4 Grand Sport Vitesse. Each model will be limited to just three vehicles.

This particular car has about 1,200 horsepower and can reach 253 miles per hour — with the top down.
