A YouTuber went to buy a Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport but was met with quite a strange encounter at the dealership.
It’s an interesting one because you can see the perspective of the buyer and the dealership here.
Someone buying a supercar like this is also not an everyday occurrence, even for a Bugatti dealership.
These cars cost between one and two million dollars, which is obviously a big purchase.

YouTuber buying a Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport
In 2022, YouTuber and entrepreneur Carl Runefelt wanted to buy a Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport.
Although it is an old car, it was his dream car from childhood as it was the best at everything when it came out.
The Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport is a record-breaking supercar as it was the world’s fastest open-top car with a max speed of 254mph.
It was the first proper hypercar when it came out.
Like many others, it was the dream car for all supercar enthusiasts – Runefelt included.
So he finally went to a dealership to buy his dream car.
Visiting Bugatti dealerships
The first dealership he went to had a white Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport with a red interior.
According to the salesperson, it had only been driven under 15,000km.
The next dealership Runefelt went to had five Bugattis, three of which he liked.
However, a guy at that place didn’t like that he was filming and touching the cars.
Most Bugattis go for millions of dollars, so it’s definitely understandable for dealerships to be careful about scratches and damage.
However, this encounter was a bit weird as the employees at the dealership didn’t allow Runefelt to even touch or sit in the car.
They also didn’t allow him to film the cars even after he told them he wanted to buy a Bugatti.
Ultimately, this cost the dealership as Runefelt didn’t want to buy the cars from there anymore.
He went back to the first dealership he visited and bought the white Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport.
