With the Linea Vincero d'Oro, German tuner Mansory has completed its strictly
limited series for the refined Bugatti Veyron 16.4. After the specialist for
exclusive luxury vehicles raised the bar for high-performance sports cars by
another level in March 2009, Mansory is now placing the crowning glory on the
art of refinement. Using targeted changes, Mansory first transformed the Bugatti
Veyron into the Linea Vincero and then, using a special gold-colored alloy,
into the unique Linea Vincero d'Oro.
Compared with the standard Veyron,
the Linea Vincero has received a comprehensive facelift to its front, consisting
of modified fenders, a shortened bonnet and a striking front apron. The LED
daytime running lights and the stylized letter "V" (paying homage to the name
Vincero) built into the car's front end are particular highlights of the new
design while the newly developed side skirts form a visual and aerodynamic link
between the axles.
Larger air outlets at the rear and at the sides of the
car ensure optimal engine cooling and, with the new diffuser, underscore the
vehicle's vibrant design. Mansory manufactures almost all the components in the car's body
from ultra-light, high-strength carbon and the autoclave method of hardening
under high pressure and high temperatures used during the manufacturing process
makes a huge improvement to the quality of the materials. One unique feature of
the design of the Linea Vincero d'Oro is the carbon fabric with inbuilt copper
thread used by Mansory, the metallic sheen of which really brings out the
exceptional nature of this special car.
Other gold-colored features
complete the Linea Vincero d'Oro, including the distinctive "turbine" design
alloy wheels, the curved grill featuring the stylized "Vincero-V", the door
handles, the rear view mirror caps and the fuel tank cap. But that's not all:
the headlight washer nozzle covers, the borders around the daytime running LEDs
and the decorative features on the roof all shimmer in precious gold too.
The car's interior has an exclusive look and feel while remaining
functional. Mansory understands the importance of combining luxury and
technology with the golden aspirations of this unique car. Traditional
workmanship, fine materials and a stylistically confident design combine to
create an interior that is fitting for such a classy car. You notice this in
particular with the LEDs of the car's mood lighting system placed in the car's
seats, the door trims and the dashboard. The entire passenger cabin shines in
the golden glow of this feel-good lighting which masterfully draws attention to
the high-quality carbon appliqués as well as to the specially embossed leather.
The airbag steering wheel with inbuilt shift paddles and gilded elements,
designed in a new ergonomic style, is both sporty easy to keep a good grip of.
Gold alloys can also be found on the decorative strips of the door trims and on
the center console.
