This Unique Bugatti Mistral Is Covered in PorcelainBugattiBugatti has revealed the latest creation from its Sur Mesure customization division, the Mistral "Blanc Éternel."A follow-up to the Veyron L'Or Blanc from 2011, the Blanc Éternel is a collaboration with a German porcelain manufacturer and features the delicate material inside and out.While the bodywork itself isn't porcelain, the white paint is covered in bold, geometric black lines to create a head-turning appearance.There have been a lot of special-edition Bugattis over the years, but some stand out above the rest. One of the coolest was the Veyron L'Or Blanc, which featured a swirling blue-and-white exterior with porcelain details on both the bodywork and inside the cabin. Now, Bugatti is emulating that eye-catching design with the latest creation from its Sur Mesure customization division, the Mistral "Blanc Éternel."BugattiThe Blanc Éternel is a collaboration with Königliche Porzellan-Manufaktur Berlin (KPM), the same German porcelain company that worked on the L'Or Blanc. However, this new one-off is based on the Mistral, the final roadgoing Bugatti to feature the vaunted W-16 engine before the impending arrival of the Tourbillon and its V-16 hybrid powertrain.AdvertisementAdvertisementWhile the Blanc Éternel echoes the L'Or Blanc's theme, the special Mistral takes a slightly different approach, trading the flowing, liquid-like lines for a straighter, more geometric look. These bold black lines cover every surface of the Mistral, both inside and out, defining the different forms and surfaces on the low-slung hypercar. Each black line was positioned by hand on the white body before being painted on.The result is a look that is both a bit robotic and skeletal, while also delicate and artful, and certainly distinct. KPM also crafted porcelain details on the exterior: the Bugatti badge on top of the rear wing, the elephant mascot next to the side air intake, the fuel and oil caps, and two inlays on the engine cover with KPM's logo. Blanc Éternel is written in script on the underside of the rear wing.The use of porcelain continues inside, where the white leather surfaces are also covered in black-painted lines. The speaker grilles, trim pieces on the center console, window switches, and the gearshift are all fashioned from porcelain.Although porcelain may not be the softest material on which to rest your elbow on the center console, it's definitely a unique look. There's no word on price, but the Mistral cost over $5 million, and we're sure this Sur Mesure commission required quite a bit more coin.➡️ Skip the lot.
