With so few cars being made, it is likely each one will have bespoke improvements and alterations made as time progresses.

Making it not really a true production car, but more of a run of 300 specialy build one off's.

the original run of cars last summer were still prototypes... starting in the winter, making further improvements... and a few issues solved that were previously unknown. The car that has been delivered 1 week ago is the 3rd iteration of the original production run...

Germans make improvements in intervals, whereas teh italians will change things w/out telling anybody

Bugatti Veyron targa confirmed.
We've known as much for a while, but according to a Georges Keller, a Bugatti spokesperson quoted by Automotive News, a drop-top Veyron is in the works and is due to launch sometime next year. Details are scarce, but according to an unnamed ex-Bugatti executive, the targa-topped hypercar will feature a removable hardtop, but its overtly wealthy owners will have to plan ahead, since there won't be any room in the Bug to store the roof on the go. According to the anonymous exec, the decision to go with a hard top instead of some kind of cloth piece was due to the design of the Veyron's safety cage. Certainly a good call considering the Veyron's potential.
