The Bugatti Centodieci price was set at $9 million, and all ten units were spoken for long before production finished in 2023. As a tribute to the EB110 of the 1990s, the Centodieci features a 1,578-hp W16 engine. By 2026, these cars rarely appear at auction, but when they do, their valuation is estimated to exceed $12–15 million, cementing their status as one of the most exclusive modern hypercars in existence.
For context: nine million dollars is enough to buy roughly 64 Porsche 911 GT3s, or one Centodieci. There are literally more people who have walked on the moon than there are Centodieci owners. If you missed your window – it is gone. Here is everything about what that money actually bought.
What Is the Bugatti Centodieci?
‘Centodieci’ means 110 in Italian – a direct reference to the Bugatti EB110, the mid-engine supercar that almost saved Bugatti from bankruptcy in the early 1990s. The Centodieci is Bugatti’s homage to that car: same angular design philosophy, same sense of impossible excess, updated with a modern 8.0-litre quad-turbocharged W16 engine and 21st-century aerodynamics.
Bugatti revealed it at the 2019 Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance, and the ten build slots sold out almost immediately – most reportedly going to existing Chiron or Veyron owners who were personally contacted by Bugatti before the public announcement.
Bugatti Centodieci Price – How Much Does It Cost?
The official list price was 8 million euros – approximately $9 million USD at the time of sale. With taxes, import duties, and optional customisations through Bugatti’s La Maison Pur Sang personalisation programme, some units are believed to have been delivered at closer to $10 to $11 million.
Used market pricing, when these rarely surface, is expected to exceed the original purchase price significantly – just as happened with the Chiron Pur Sport and Divo. Bugatti hypercars have historically appreciated rather than depreciated.

What Makes the Centodieci So Expensive?
Hand-Built Construction
Every Centodieci is assembled by hand at Bugatti’s Atelier in Molsheim, Alsace, France. The process for a single car takes thousands of man-hours. There is no robotic mass production – every component is fitted, checked, and approved by master craftsmen. The engine alone takes an entire week to assemble.
Limited Production – Only 10 Units
Exclusivity is a fundamental part of what you pay for at this level. Bugatti produced exactly ten Centodiecis – less than most artisan watch manufacturers produce in a week. That rarity is deliberate and it is what ensures these cars command and hold extraordinary prices.
EB110 Tribute Design
The design is not just cosmetically inspired by the EB110 – it required completely bespoke bodywork that cannot be shared with any other Bugatti model. Every panel was custom engineered in carbon fibre to recreate the EB110’s distinctive multi-air-intake front fascia in a modern aerodynamic form. That kind of unique engineering work costs as much as engineering an entirely new car.

*The Centodieci’s top speed is lower than the Chiron Super Sport due to its EB110-inspired body generating significantly more drag – the aerodynamic tribute to the EB110 design was prioritised over outright maximum speed.
Who Owns a Bugatti Centodieci?
Bugatti does not publicly disclose buyer identities. However, automotive media has reported that Cristiano Ronaldo – a well-known Bugatti collector who also owns a Chiron and a Veyron – is believed to be among the ten owners. The remaining buyers are understood to be ultra-high-net-worth individuals from the Middle East, Europe, and the United States.
Is It Worth the Price?
That depends on what ‘worth’ means to you. As a financial asset, the Centodieci is almost certainly a strong store of value – ultra-limited Bugatti models have never depreciated in any meaningful sense. As a driving experience, it is reportedly one of the most dramatic and intense cars ever built, combining supercar performance with an emotional design that references one of the most important cars in Bugatti’s history.
If you have to ask whether it is worth it, you are probably not in the target market. For the ten people who bought one, it is almost certainly priceless.
