Ever since Bugatti revealed the La Voiture Noire at the 2019 Geneva Motor Show on March, gear-heads can’t stop thinking about the mysterious buyer who acquired the Bugatti.
La Voiture Noire is considered to be the most expensive car ever created. Although the completion of the actual version of the Bugatti black beauty may still take two more years, somebody already secured the ownership of it for $18.6 million.

The body of the luxurious sports car is carbon-fiber-made and is somehow Chiron-based Divo alike. The details of the interior remain discreet. All that we know for now is that it can reach up to the maximum speed of 260 mph. It reportedly has an 8.0-liter turbocharged W16 engine. Whoever bought this seems to have a serious need for speed.
Bugatti executive Stephan Winkelman announced at the Geneva Motor Show that there will only manufacture one model of the La Voiture Noire. And to make the drama even more intense, they hosted a private auction exclusive for Bugatti’s top clients.
As per the mysterious buyer, there are several names popping out, like Floyd Mayweather Jr. and former Volkswagen Group leader, Ferdinand Piech. But many are saying that the football player, Cristiano Ronaldo is the one who made the home-run in the bidding war.

Cristiano Ronaldo is a Portuguese professional football player. Ronaldo built quite a reputation in his choice of sport. He is the Italian club Juventus forward player and captain of the Portugal National Team. Fans and critics consider him as one of the greatest players of all time and currently the best football player on Earth.
Ronaldo has impressed many people since he was 16 years old. He had already received a lot of recognition in his sports club career before he made his breakthrough on his international career. He was seen internationally on his debut game against Finland where they ended 3-1 n score.
With Ronaldo’s extraordinary football skills, he receives a lot of sponsorship offers for consumer products such as soda drinks, sports apparel, football footwear, clothing, financial services, electronics and computer video games, and even automotive lubricants.

He’s definitely the type of celebrity who can affort this purchase. He appeared on Pro Evolution Soccer’s magazine cover not just once but three times. His face also made it to FIFA video game FIFA 18 when EA Sports featured him as the cover athlete.
We all know that fame brings a lot of money to people so there is a huge possibility that he really is the mysterious buyer. But, the football superstar’s spokesperson falsified the rumor in an interview. We guess, we just have to wait 2 more years to see who the person behind the wheels is.
