BREAKING: Volkswagen Puts Bugatti On The Auction Block - Rimac Most Likey Buyer

Funny! I can hear the tortured screams of all the Bugatti owners whose cars just got instantly de-valued by about 25%.

Good luck keeping a Veyron or Chiron on the road 5 years from now!

Wow. Didn't see that coming. Piech must be rolling over in his grave.

VW is taking offers for Ducati and Bentley as well, my sources in Wolfsburg tell me.

They mismanaged Bentley and somehow allowed ugly styling to get out.

It's a poor investment for any brand. I would pass for sure.

So Rimac buys Bugatti and now Porsche was 49% of Rimac. Lots going on here.

So Bugattis is being purchased by a company that sounds like its some deviant sexual practice?

Lamborghini is the jewel that someone would want. Both Ford and Hyundai-Kia would be wise to bid on that.

Lots of friends at Bugatti and Lamborghini, could see Tavares wanting to bring both within PSA. Wouldn’t surprise if Daimler went after Bentley could pair with their eventual ownership of Aston

PSA would be a DISASTER for Bugorghini. Citroen worked hard to destroy Maserati and the brand pretty much suffered such an image loss that it could never recover.

The French are morons when it comes to cars.

Tavares has enough on his plate swallowing Fiat. I'm sure he doesn't have to balls to kill dead-end brands (Lancia, Fiat, Maserati, Alfa Romeo, Chrysler, Opel, DS) so he won't have the capacity to do anything but ruin Lamborghini and Bugatti.

Tavares is considered the Best CEO in the auto industry. He turned PSA around, everyone thought he was nuts buying a money losing machine like Adam Opel. He turned it extremely profitable within 2 years, amazing. https://www.industryweek.com/leadership/article/22026011/peugeots-owner-does-to-opel-what-gm-failed-to-do-in-20-years

And he's been heavily subsidized to keep the bottom from falling out. He didn't work miracles.
