Minichamps' 1:18 diecast Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport reproduces the 2009 open-top hypercar, built around the same quad-turbocharged W16 engine as the closed coupe beneath a removable roof panel. Finished in a striking black and lemon two-tone scheme, the doors open to reveal the cabin, with a crisp masking line and sharp horseshoe grille detail that reward close inspection. A standout centrepiece for any hypercar display.

About the Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport Black Lemon Minichamps 1:18

TL;DR: Minichamps' 1:18 diecast Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport reproduces the 2009 open-top hypercar built around the same quad-turbocharged W16 engine as the closed coupe, finished in a black and lemon two-tone scheme. Opening doors reveal the cabin beneath the Grand Sport's removable roof panel, engineered without compromising the closed car's high-speed stability.

Removing the roof from a car engineered to survive over 400 km/h isn't a styling decision, it's a structural problem most manufacturers wouldn't attempt. Bugatti solved it anyway in 2009 with the Veyron Grand Sport, keeping the closed coupe's quad-turbocharged W16 entirely intact beneath a removable panel roof. Minichamps casts that car in a striking black and lemon two-tone finish, doors included.

Engineering the Veyron Grand Sport's Open Roof

The standard Veyron 16.4 was already an exercise in extremes, its quad-turbocharged 8.0-litre W16 producing around 1,001 metric horsepower and demanding an entire cooling and aerodynamic package built specifically to manage that output at speeds beyond 400 km/h. Removing the roof from a car engineered around that kind of aerodynamic stability meant Bugatti couldn't simply cut a hole and hope for the best. The Grand Sport, launched in 2009, used a lightweight removable roof panel that could be stored in the front luggage compartment, along with a discreet wind deflector positioned behind the cabin to manage airflow at speed with the roof removed. Bugatti positioned the car as capable of genuine high-speed open-top driving rather than a slow-speed novelty, a claim that set it apart from most targa-roofed performance cars of the era, which typically sacrificed structural rigidity for the open-air experience. The W16 itself carried over unchanged from the closed coupe, since Bugatti's engineers had already solved the harder problems of cooling and power delivery on that car, leaving the roof itself as the genuinely new engineering challenge the Grand Sport had to answer.

Minichamps' Veyron Grand Sport Weight and Black Lemon Finish

Lift this model from its packaging and the weight registers immediately, a density that suits a real car built from a mix of carbon fibre and aluminium but engineered with the kind of structural mass that extreme-speed stability demands. The doors open on a hinge that holds its position, revealing a cabin trimmed differently from a standard road car, appropriate for a hypercar whose interior design language was as considered as its drivetrain. Two-tone paintwork is one of the harder finishes for any diecast manufacturer to execute cleanly, since the black and lemon split has to follow a crisp masking line around the body's complex surfacing without bleed or overspray at the boundary. Under direct light, the lemon sections show a bright, clean saturation against the black, and the transition line along the body holds straight and consistent from the front wing to the rear haunches. The removable roof panel is represented as part of the closed body here, and the model's proportions capture the Veyron's distinctive horseshoe grille and heavily creased flanks, details that take real tooling precision to reproduce accurately at this scale rather than smoothing over for simplicity.

Where the Grand Sport Sits in the Veyron Family

Set beside a standard closed-roof Veyron 16.4, the Grand Sport reads as nearly identical from most angles, since Bugatti deliberately avoided changing the car's aerodynamic profile any more than the open roof strictly required. The differences are subtle rather than dramatic: the roofline itself, the rear wind deflector, and small changes around the cabin surround where the removable panel seats into the body. That restraint reflects Bugatti's own priorities with the Grand Sport, treating it as a genuine engineering variant of the Veyron rather than a cosmetic special edition wearing a different badge. Within the hypercar diecast segment generally, subjects at this level command a premium over ordinary supercars, reflecting both the complexity of the real car's engineering and the tooling cost of capturing details like the horseshoe grille, the quad exhaust cluster and the two-tone paint split accurately. This Grand Sport, with its open-top engineering and distinctive colour scheme, sits comfortably at that upper tier.

Displaying a Two-Tone Hypercar

At 1:18, the Veyron's real-world width becomes obvious immediately, the model needing more shelf depth than a conventionally proportioned sports car to avoid crowding its neighbours. The black and lemon split benefits from even lighting across the entire body, since a single angled spotlight will throw one colour into shadow while overexposing the other. Displayed with the door open, the cabin trim becomes visible against the exterior's bold colour split, giving the piece two genuinely different viewing angles depending on how it's posed. Keep it dust-free given how much the lemon sections show any surface contamination under bright light. Set among other hypercars from the same era, this Grand Sport's open-top engineering makes it a natural standout piece.
