The record price for the car – more than $30 million, was paid in May by the buyer of auction house Gooding and Company, and now this Bugatti Type 57SC Atlantic will not be hidden from extraneous eyes in a private collection. All interested persons in the American museum Mullin Automotive Museum which new exposition will open next week can see it. A case really the rare: such cars has been constructed only in three pieces, and till today remained only two.
It is necessary to notice that the former owner of the car doctor Peter Williamson has not bad earned on sale of the given copy. He has got the car in 1971 and has given for it $59 000. The reasons on which this model, instead of any other curiosity has risen in price in this time in five hundred times (or on 5 000 %), are possibly known only to true judges of antiques. Some experts consider her as most beautiful car in the history, and it even in the XXI-st century continues to win prizes for the design. For example, in 2003 it took Grand prix on Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance.
