According to GTSpirit, the Swiss owner of the car, unnamed, crashed and ruined his super car last summer while striking the gate of his own mansion in St. Tropez, France. How fast the car was traveling when it hit the gates, judge by the damages you see in the photo above.
Now, to get a better idea of what the crash meant for the owner, we'll have to go back to a few details about the Grand Sport version of the Veyron. Presented in Geneva last year as the limited edition version of the Veyron. Only 150 units of the model have or are to be built.
Usually, the Veyron Grand Sport sells on the market for $2 million, but the leftover car you see here was auctioned, according to unconfirmed information, at Pebble Beach for $2.9 million.
Luckily, the crash didn't result in the owner of the vehicle getting hurt. Not physically, at least.
