A rare 1937 Bugatti Type 57S Atalante Coupe sold for 3.1 million Euros, or roughly $4M, at the Retromobile Vintage Cars show in Paris on Saturday. The car earned cult status when it was found in a barn late last year after being parked there in the early 1960s.
The circumstances surrounding its secrecy makes us wonder just how much of a true "barn find" this car really was, but clearly someone with deep pockets was convinced.
