A well-known car collector and California real estate mogul ordered the one-of-a-kind hypercar three years ago.
You should expect to get your new hypercar exactly the way you want it if you spend two or three million dollars on it. It’s likely that Manny Khoshbin knows that better than anyone else, which is why he chose to build his new Bugatti this way.
It’s the only one of its kind, the Chiron Hermès edition, and it’s finally done after more than three years of work. Some people might look at it and say, “So what? It’s a white Bugatti.” But there’s a lot more going on than just paint.
To begin, it’s painted in a one-of-a-kind color called Hermès Craie, which is meant to look like the Chalk or Crayon colors that Bugatti’s sister company Porsche offers. It goes over the bodywork, the wheels, the rear bumper (which isn’t usually there), and even the cockpit. The grilles are also filled with a mesh that has Hermès’s signature H pattern on it. The inside is lined with soft white Hermès leather and has cashmere panels with the Parisian luxury brand’s Courbettes horse motif, which also shows up under the rear wing when it’s raised. And several inscriptions show how special it is.
It’s a unique creation that we don’t think will be made again. No matter how beautiful it looks, neither Bugatti nor Khoshbin have been there before.
In the 1920s, Ettore Bugatti and Émile-Maurice Hermès worked together for the first time. After many years, the Alsatian car company got back together with Hermès to make the Veyron Fbg par Hermès edition. The hundred-millionaire Persian real estate mogul who ordered this job must have been so happy with it that he had Pagani make him a one-of-a-kind Huayra in brown carbon with Hermès leather inside, and he is also said to have asked for the same treatment to be put on a new McLaren Speedtail.
Khoshnin will show off his Bugatti Chiron with a Hermès edition on January 4. He will also show off the rest of his collection, which includes other Bugattis, McLarens, Koenigseggs, and a new Porsche 935 to go with his Carrera GT and 918 Spyder. But you can look at it now in these pictures we’ve put together for you.
To answer your question about which of his many six- and seven-figure luxury cars he drives the most, it’s his white-painted Rolls-Royce Phantom Drophead Coupe, which he uses to cruise around Southern California and look over his $100 million empire.
