The most expensive car in the world! Purchased by an anonymous donor for 40 million dollars, and is now on loan to the Mullin Automotive Museum. The Atlantic was an automobile derived from Bugatti’s prototype Aerolithe Electron Coupe that caused a sensation when it was unveiled at the 1935 Paris Auto Salon. This 1936 car was the first in the series of three Atlantics built between 1936 and 1938.
