Bugatti Veyron Pur Sang spotted in Abu Dhabi


Dubai may be home to one out of every five Bugatti Veyrons sold, but Abu Dhabi has a Pur Sang. Only five examples of this special-edition Veyron were built, and all were immediately sold at a $300k premium. We don't know where the other four have gone, but one of them just turned up in Abu Dhabi, the largest of the United Arab Emirates.

Some have mistaken this Pur Sang, spotted at night in the UAE, as a chromed Veyron. The Pur Sang – literally "pure blood" in French – is differentiated by its paintjob, or rather, lack thereof. The body panels were assuredly polished but left in their natural state of aluminum and carbon fiber, the separation between which does not follow along the lines of the traditional Veyron's two-tone color scheme. (The special wheels are also a dead giveaway.)

Follow the jump to see the video someone shot from the window of a car moving alongside the Pur Sang, but prepare yourself for the disappointment of seeing it get passed by a Toyota Land Cruiser. Thanks for the tip, SLICK!
