Volkswagen, things with Bugatti are getting out of hand. Stop it! Inventing special editions like the Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Centenaire, to be unveiled in commemorative colors, isn't a substitute for building a new car.

These colorful cars apparently commemorate the racing careers of Grand Prix drivers Jean-Pierre Wimille, Achille Varzi, Malcolm Campbell and Hermann Zu Leiningen, and mimic the livery of each respective driver's car. These Centeniares will bow at the Concorso d'Eleganza Villa d'Este, likely to the sound of their owners hands clapping. We're thinking the Veyron is beginning to seriously jump the shark with all these special editions. Something is wrong when news about one of the worlds most powerful and exclusive cars is tiresome and boring. [MotorPasion via Carscoop]
