ONE OF THE RAREST SUPERCARS EVER!

In 1989, Italian industrialist Romano Artioli acquired the Bugatti name and constructed a facility in Italy to produce a mid-engine supercar that would evoke the mystique of the original. The car debuted in 1991 and was called the EB110 after the founder of the mark, Ettore Bugatti, who would have been 110 years old that year. Its 3.5-liter aluminum and titanium V-12 engine was fitted with four small turbochargers. Top speed of the 552-horsepower car was over 210 miles per hour thanks to advanced ground effects and an efficient, speed sensitive rear wing. Unfortunately, production of the EB110 coincided with a dramatic decline in the supercar market during the 1990s and just 126 were produced. The Bugatti factory was later closed, and the name sold to Volkswagen.

Great video - so much nostalgia with this car. Sorry about the drive shaft vs the F40 on Carwow's channel, but I can't thank you enough for making my childhood fantasy come to life seeing those 2 side by side. It must have been surreal to see them line up in person. Absolutely amazing. I'd take the EB110 over the Chiron on nostalgia alone!

[@Blargishtarbin]

Favorite car of all time, the EB110 Super Sport. The silver over brown leather example is insane

[@JoJoJoker]

The black over red leather one would be my choice. The EB110 seems to be relatively forgotten when compared with the Porsche 959, Ferrari F40, XJ220, and McLaren F1.

[@Blargishtarbin]

@@JoJoJoker i would say the XJ220 is as understated as the EB110 too, the two of them would be a Holy Grail to have in one’s garage

[@JoJoJoker]

​@@Blargishtarbin I wonder if the EB110 name, along with being Bugatti’s birthday, is also related to it being #1 fastest car in the world over the XJ220. Seems like too much of a coincidence. “Jaguar isa numba 2, Bugatti isa a numba 1” is a very Italian thing to do.

[@Blargishtarbin]

@@JoJoJoker i thought the very same thing as i wrote out my comment

[@donjuan150]

Saw this exact car at the Saratoga Springs Automobile Museum over the Summer! One of the reasons had to go was to see that car! Thank you for loaning it out. My highlight of my automotive year!

[@judefernandez827]

I loved this car long ago that the only way I could own one was to get a model and so I have a black EB 110 in my collection in 1/43 scale and I’ve had it for nearly 30 years now .

[@robtullius7540]

Thats a great picture of him standing next to those bare aluminum blocks. .maybe some cyl heads too...very cool

[@nhlanhlarikhotso9061]

Thanks for lending Mat this car

[@cvtdshop]

Need that 👀 thanks for the info Patrick!

[@emt9370]

I was lucky enough to work with this car when we had it on display at the Saratoga Auto Museum.

[@dirkbonesteel]

I spent 2 days detailing one of these for Philadelphia Car Show. There was a Chevy dealer called Rothrock that was going to sell them. Most amazing car of it's day bar none

[@GiletheCarGuy]

I was drooling over this as a kid...

[@genlus_s]

Are you drooling over it still?

[@GiletheCarGuy]

@@genlus_s I wouldn't kick it out of bed for eating cookies. It was a standard bearer at the time.

[@joebeus6886]

Love Bugatti EB110 GT/SS from Italian 90s period, than German 00s and 10s period (Veyron,Chiron) The Croatian 20s under Rimac is gonna be MEGA!!! ( Mistral, Bolide and the NEW hybrid with the New NA engine)!! According to Bugatti Rimac CEO Mate Rimac, the New Bugatti + the New NA engine is gonna be something very very special !! 😎

[@robknight1473]

I remember Clarkson driving one of these on top gear . It was a beast

[@joebeus6886]

Please make next special about your Ferrari 365 GTS/4 Daytona spider, from THE Best car movie ever made: 1976 "The Gumball Rally"!!

[@jessiwilgenbusch7836]

Joke on you I have it in 1/64 scale

[@ricado3589]

After this teaser. Where is the promised DEEP dive?

[@AbandonedRaven]

Never been the biggest fan of this (I may even say I don’t like this car really), but I must say it looks stunning in that silver.

[@robertfricano3649]

If I could have one car It would be the XJ220. I think It was the most beautiful of that era.

[@JoJoJoker]

The EB110 fulfilled nearly all of the promises Jaguar made with the XJ220 prototype (V12, AWD, ~220mph top speed)...

[@JoJoJoker]

959 & EB110 > F40 & XJ220

[@Invigoratingforce]

Bro it looks like a Ferrari

[@spunkitydoda]

it looks like a 300ZX.

[@troynov1965]

Im sorry but to me that car is ugly.

[@StreetShamann]

Controversial take yes, but it’s an ugly car.

[@troynov1965]

yes it is
