Elegance, high standards and speed, the Bugatti Centodieci is a dream. There is a place, where you can admire this technological feat, produced in just 10 copies, and take photos of the resting beast! Till February 28 you can admire Centodieci, a daring reinterpretation of the former supersport from the 1990s, the EB110, a copy of the latest Bugatti, produced only a few months ago, on the forecourt of Strasbourg Airport.

Founded in 1909 in Molsheim, by Ettore Bugatti, an Italian emigrant in love with Alsace, the brand has always known how to reinvent itself, always with this same DNA: a unique design, exceptional power and state-of-the-art engineering. 'innovation. Back in 1923, actual Strasbourg Airport was a military aerodrome,which was put into civil use in 1994.  Almost two hundred-year-old entities, a rich, singular history, and above all, an Alsatian social and territorial anchorage, so it was logical these two companies meet to enhance their know-how.

This new, elegant and timeless model meets several technical challenges, including complex aerodynamic requirements and an aesthetic combining mechanical design and coachbuilding. A real technical feat, the racing car has nothing to envy of a twin-engine airplane: it goes from 0 to 100 km / h in 2.4 seconds, reaches 200 km / h in 6.1 seconds and 300 km / h in 13, 1 seconds. Its top speed is electronically limited to 380 km / h.
