Super Veyron and eventual replacement coming around 2012

The big question for Bugatti is: What comes after the Veyron? Seriously, there isn’t much that could top the 1,000-or-so horsepower, quad-turbo, 16-cylinder engine that’s carried around in the back of the most gorgeous body ever with an equally exquisite interior. How about a revised model with 1,200-horsepower and 1,106 lb-ft of torque? Yeah, that’d do nicely. Rumors indicate that an über-Veyron could make an appearance at the very end of this current generation’s production.

Driving with the top down is a rush, but all other convertibles may pale in comparison to the open-air experience in the latest supercar from Bugatti, called the Veyron 16.4 Grand Sport.
Pictures are circulating now, but the production car will be unveiled in the flesh on Aug. 16 at the Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance. The car features what Bugatti calls a “unique removable roof,” which seems to be code for targa.
The open-air edition of what will likely be the world’s fastest roadster gets the eight-liter, 16-cyclinder double-V powerplant making a whopping 1,001 hp and hitting 0 to 62.1 mph in 2.5 seconds.
