1938 Bugatti Type 57SC Gangloff Cabriolet owned by Ralph Lauren.

Not quite a convertible but more than a sunroof? This 1936 Bugatti Atlante Coupe features a novel open car design. Anybody care to bet that we'll be seeing something similar on a modern car? Automotive design has a way of coming around again and the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance offers glimpses into the future as well as the past.

The Bugatti Type 35, including the Type 35A, C, T, B 37 and 39, is probably the most successful race car of all time, winning over 1,000 races in its long career. Right: "BUG" is an appropriate license plate on this racing Bugatti owned by the Nethercutt Collection as that is a term of affection many enthusiasts use while referring to the marque.
