Sadly, this also means that there will not be a "more affordable" version of the supercar, but I guess sacrifices must be made. The more extreme version of the Veyron, which has been nicknamed the Veyron GT, should see production by the beginning of 2012.
According to a recent interview done by Autocar, Franz-Josef Paefgen, head of Bugatti said, "We will be staying on top of everybody else and we will not be producing a smaller, or cheaper car and we will not be moving volumes up. Bugatti customers are very extreme people..."
The Quad-Turbo 16-cylinder currently powering the Veyron is good for 1001hp and 922 lb/ft of torque. Top Bugatti engineer, Dr. Wolfgang Schreiber said it was possible to push that number up to 1106 lb/ft safely.
You can expect the design to something similar to the next Bentley Arnage which will also be making a debut in 2012. No word on how many years you will need to save up for the "Veyron GT."
