The 1936 Bugatti Type 57sc: Is This The Most Beautiful Car In The World? by AutoReportNG: 3:14am On Feb 15, 2018
What makes a car excite the imagination? What draws us to these rolling hunks of metal, and inspires us to feel something? for any enthusiast, the Bugatti type 57SC coupé Atlantic poses these questions with its teardrop curves and art deco details.

Whether its heritage, beauty, or novelty, this car has got it all, and that’s why this baby blue type 57SC won the illustrious Peninsula classics best of the best award. For those of you who don’t know, this competition features the most prized cars in the world and is judged by some of the biggest names in the classic car community, including Jay Leno and Ralph Lauren.

Sometimes pictures just can’t do justice to a car’s beauty, but good luck seeing one of these in person, with only 3 surviving original cars in existence — you’re more likely to see an albino elegant or a ghost for that matter. These are all reasons why this car is considered widely as the Mona Lisa of classic cars. Its rarity is just one of the many reasons behind its estimated 40 million dollar price tag. its unique history of intrigue, the mystery surrounding its precursor’s unexplained disappearance…this car, manufactured shortly after the famed car show, was personally owned by the third Baron Rothschild and has since had few other owners in its 82 years.

Bugatti’s use of magnesium rather than aluminum was very bold and posed many logistical problems for manufacturers, and even more for car restorers. All these challenges didn’t daunt the car’s father Jean Bugatti (heir to the Bugatti name) who personally believed in the car enough to see its release in the Paris and London cars show of the time, where it was looked on as if it were extraterrestrial.

Certainly Not!
.. have you considered the E-type Jaguar or even the Merc 300 SL "Gull wing"? .. before thinking of this queer looking car as beautiful?

must a lady identified with the car? Advertisers and ladies as catalyst to sell or whatever. Well, maybe the lady goes with whoever buys the car one day or to attract viewers.

Shut the fûck up old man
No one gives a shît about it’s vintage value
We’re all concerned about its physical aesthetics and it’s by no means the most beautiful car using that standard. Heck, it’s an extraordinarily ugly car
No one wants to know if it’s the car Liberace took a shît in or if only one was created and was owned exclusively by Freddie Mercury
It’s. An. Ugly. Car.

It's a very good looking classic car. Looks more like a concept people would have wowed at then.

Meanwhile how do they replace the back tyre?
