Eva Green is French, and she is prestige luxury.

German owned but Italian designed I believe so it's still very much Italian. It's just not funded by Italian money. However something does not look right with this Roadster in my eyes. I prefer the coupe version. It's lost the elegance that the coupe had. For the hefty price tag I rather get more metal. If i wanted a roadster I would go for a Zonda or something. Just my two cents.

WILL NEVER HAPPEN

Too difficult to get the Torsional Stiffness Needed to handle all that Weight/Power in a Cabrio Format

THEN AGAIN.
THIS IS VW WE ARE TALKING ABOUT
PHAETON // VEYRON // VEYRON CABRIO ??
VERY POSSIBLE

To set the record straight:

Bugatti was a French company to begin with!

In the 90s and the era of the EB110 however it was headquarted in Italy where the cars were produced.

Now, it is owned by Volkswagen and has its HQ and factory in France (although much of the engineering of the Veyron was done in Germany and the French HQ still has to answer to Wolfsburg)

It was not designed by an Italian design house, the Veyron was designed in house at VW

It is not built by a British firm, only the special DSG gearbox is (built by Ricardo i believe) the rest of the car was designed, engineered by VW and is built in a state-of-the-art, VW run factory in Molsheim, France.
