One of the first 20 Bugatti Chirons to be delivered worldwide is heading to auction in February as part of RM Sotheby’s Paris auction.

This particular Chiron looks almost identical to the example that premiered at the Geneva Motor Show in early 2016. As such, it adopts a two-tone Atlantic Blue over French Racing Blue livery and certainly has the looks needed for a car that supersedes the legendary Bugatti Veyron.

Other notable features present are the optional carbon fiber steering wheel, Maritime Blue brake calipers, and brown leather with contrast quilt stitching.

The auction house says that the French hypercar was delivered in April 2017 and has fewer than 1000 km (621 miles) under its belt, roughly half of which is test mileage.

As you’ll inevitably know by now, the Chiron is powered by a quad-turbo 8.0-liter W16 engine delivering a mighty 1500 hp, accelerating the car to an electronically limited top speed of 420 km/h (261 km/h). Given the right set of tires, it is thought that the Chiron could approach, or even exceed, 450 km/h (280 mph).

Pre-auction estimates for the Chiron sit between 3.2 million and 3.6 million euros.
