Lego has been treating car aficionados with sets of all sorts of exclusive and high-end exotic cars, with those sets available at varying price points.

Now, Lego has launched a set of what had been an extremely expensive and low volume car in real life, but this set won’t cost you a fortune.

The Bugatti Centodieci is part of Lego’s Speed Champions series, which generally includes vehicles made of a few hundred bricks, small enough to fit in your hand, and these sets generally costing tens of dollars.

In the case of the Speed Champions Bugatti Centodieci, the set features 291 pieces and the completed car is 15 centimetres long.

The Canadian retail price is $34.99 and the set is available now.

Real Bugatti Centodieci

The real life Bugatti Centodieci was a recent low-volume car that paid homage to the iconic EB110 of the 1990s, but had all the performance of a modern Bugatti, with a W16 engine producing 1,600 hp. Only 10 were made.

“The Bugatti Centodieci is among the most distinctive creations in our history, inspired by a beloved icon of the Bugatti story, said Wiebke Ståhl, managing director of Bugatti International S.A., in a news release.

“Thanks to our collaboration with the Lego Group, more people than ever before can experience the extraordinary car. It is a wonderful way to inspire the next generation of Bugatti enthusiasts and Lego builders.

The 10th and final Centodieci was finished in Quartz White with carbon fibre accents and a Light Blue Sport interior with quilted leather. That car was delivered to its owner in December 2022.

The Lego Speed Champions version is based on that car.
