  • Bugatti Type 57SC Atlantic Coupé ‘La Voiture Noire’ was the Jean Bugatti’s personal masterpiece. It has an iconic fin design which is a symbol in the automotive history for a marvelous combination of engineering and design capabilities. That said, a mystery surrounds this $100 million dollar car... a mystery that has been yet to resolved.

    While making the research about this video, I came across a lot resources with contradicting information. This was due to the unclear nature of documentation pre world war 2. So if you find any mistakes, or want to make any corrections, please do so. I will highly appreciate it!

    The black car was build for Bugatti themselfs and was used for shows, testdrives and such. This makes the car a showcase model and (most likely) it would have been used to be a development vehicle with ongoing changes made to it. My guess is that the car had been dissembled before the mentioned trainride and many parts where used on other projects. Bugatti didn't care much about the prototypes, the aerolithe chassis is most likely used for another car and other parts where used on 57374 for example. This would explain why there is some confusion about the chassisnumbers. If the car still existed it would have sufaced by now...

      That sounds like a solid theory given that the Bordeaux arrival list mentioned as "automotive materials". I couldn't find the exact list but even mentioning it as "materials" kinda supports it. Only additional thing I can think of is maybe the initial version has an owner after Jean, like Duhoux and perhaps he made some agreements. But again that part is hazy as well.

    The Germans army main source of transportation for stolen art / goods was by horse or Train. Obviously too large Top be pulled by horses the car must’ve been transported by trains.
