While the original Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Grand Sport Vitesse already qualifies as one of the fastest convertibles in the world, the company’s decided to up the power by 199bhp (now totaling to 1,200 bhp) to create the only-one-of its-kind Veyron Grand Sport Vitesse.

Making its debut at the Qatar Motor Show in Doha right now, this four-door convertible maxes out at 235 mph (roof down), and can go from a 0-62 mph in 2.6 seconds.

Unarguably the car has earned the title for the fastest convertible in the world, and for anyone who was hoping to get their hands on this super fast drive, your luck’s run out because this limited edition Veyron has already been sold off to an anonymous buyer, and is only on display—not sale—at the motor show.

Having fronted $2 million for the car, the buyer now owns an exclusive Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport Vitesse in a T37A-inspired paint job (a 1920s Grand Prix winning sports car).

The car’s also been modified, albeit marginally, to improve handling and make it more aerodynamic.
