History
Bugatti showed the Centenaire at the Geneva Motor Show in 2009, where it made its official debut; deliveries had not yet begun. ZigWheels describes it as a limited edition and also as a unique model, and notes that LED lights, park distance control and a rear-view camera became standard on all Bugattis from that year.
