However, it can also be the subject of a viral video when it involves a multi-million-dollar, potentially one-of-two hypercar like the [Bugatti]() [Veyron]() L'Or Rouge. That's exactly what happened in China recently when the driver of said Bugatti crashed into a [BMW]() [2 Series]() Gran Coupe during a road rage spat. First shared on local TV and reposted on YouTube by [*Will C*](), the BMW's dashcam video shows the driver of the Veyron trying to cut into the right lane. However, rather than just being courteous and allowing the obnoxious cut-off, the BMW driver in the right lane can be seen standing their ground. At least until the car in front moves and the BMW driver quickly accelerates to shut the door on the Bugatti. The Bugatti driver responded to this in an equal manner by also trying to accelerate and sneak into that small gap between vehicles. Of course, the two cars crash into each other (otherwise you wouldn't be reading about this), and the BMW tears into the Veyron's exquisite door and door sill. After the incident, the Bugatti driver got out of the car and was reportedly apologetic at first, even offering to buy the other driver a new BMW, claims *[FTNN News]()*. Things reportedly got a bit more aggressive after that, as the Bugatti driver then became angry and two drivers started shouting at each other. It seems the Bugatti driver is being labeled as rich and arrogant by locals. Who would've thought? ![]() **Photo | YouTube Will C** The video is short, so it's hard to tell which driver was the biggest aggressor here. It does seem like they behaved poorly and ultimately both of them caused the crash. Given the presence of a white Ferrari LaFerrari behind the Veyron, however, it's possible that there may have been some douchebaggery going on from various supercar owners, and maybe the BMW driver was having none of it. It's unclear exactly how many Veyron L'Or Rouges Bugatti made, as it's quite a mysterious car, but it appears to have only been two. One has been seen in California with a "[Hellbug]()" license plate, and the only other one known to the public is the one you see in this video. When new, they cost over $2 million but who knows how much they're worth now considering their rarity. What makes the L'Or Rouge unique is its funky red and black paintwork, similar to the equally exclusive Veyron L'Or Blanc. Both special edition models were based on the Veyron Grand Sport Vitesse, which used a 1,200-horsepower version of Bugatti's 8.0-liter quad-turbocharged W16 engine. The "Vitesse" in its name means it's a convertible and it was actually the fastest convertible in the world at the time. Now imagine crashing into one in traffic. Yikes. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lGhM46rPgmA&t=45s *Got tips?

His love of cars began when he was just a kid playing Gran Turismo 3, grinding out enough race wins with a Mazda Miata to save up for an in-game RUF 911. That passion for small, lightweight sports cars drove his desire to learn more about the industry, get his hands on as many cars as he could, and bring those experiences to life on the page. He cut his teeth writing about BMWs, Volkswagens, and Audis, mostly, and has owned far too many of each. He’s on his fourth 3 Series sedan, but all of his old, cheap German cars have forced him to learn more about car maintenance than his mechanical capability can handle. Too many late nights have been spent scrambling to get a car running by morning so he could get to work. For some reason, he never seems to learn that old Bimmers probably aren’t the best daily drivers. But he loves more than just old German cars. He’ll gladly drive and discuss anything with four (or even three) wheels. Cars aren’t his only passions, though. Nico is also a big nerd and loves movies, video games, comic books, and cares far too much about the New York Giants. So don’t be surprised if you see football references or dumb, obscure movie quotes in any of his car reviews. ### Author social links [Instagram]() [LinkedIn]()
