Bugatti Type 57SC Atlantic

About

The Bugatti Type 57SC Atlantic is renowned for its exquisite Art Deco design and extreme rarity, making it one of the most coveted classic cars. Designed by Jean Bugatti, it combines aircraft-style and teardrop shapes, featuring a raked windscreen and kidney-shaped doors. Only three of these cars are known to exist, each distinct and crafted with precision. The Atlantic is powered by a 3.3-liter straight-eight engine, producing up to 210 bhp and reaching a top speed of over 200 km/h. Its lightweight construction, using aluminum and riveted panels, adds to its allure. The car's design includes a dorsal seam and external headlights on some models. Its historical significance and aesthetic appeal have made it a prized possession among collectors, with one example owned by Ralph Lauren.
