At least in these videos, the finished project looks like it could fool most people on the street about being a legit Bugatti, and those that won’t be fooled can surely still appreciate the skill that went into making it. It was built under the Vision Gran Turismo project, and with its looks, influenced the Bugatti Chirons design language. The car was unveiled at the 2015 Frankfurt Motor Show, a month after its teaser trailer was released, which was titled imaginEBugatti. The replica is painted in a two-tone blue similar to the Bleu de France used on the Vision. The Bugatti Vision Gran Turismo is a single-seater concept car developed by Bugatti and was manufactured in Molsheim, Alsace, France.

All that metal surely adds to the weight of the car, but we have a feeling this replica is more about the looks than comparable performance, since it doesn’t stand a chance to the real deal in this regard.
However, unlike the original Vision, there’s no carbon fiber in the body: the entire car is build with metal sheets welded together, which in itself is an impressive feat – if only aesthetically. The 300 kg Type 13 was capable of 30BHP, making it one of the fastest cars in the world at the time. Bugatti's history stretches back to 1909, when Italian founder Ettore Bugatti produced the Type 13, with one of the worlds first 4-valve engines. Everything on the replica is done by hand, as the two videos at the bottom of the page show. Bugatti is a French car manufacturer that is featured in Gran Turismo PSP, Gran Turismo 5, Gran Turismo 6 and Gran Turismo Sport. So he and the team set out to work, first creating a bespoke tube-frame chassis housing what looks like a V8 crate engine. “When I was a kid, I had a dream to build a Bugatti sport car,” Lee says. No word yet on the exact location of said garage, but Lee’s YouTube page has United States under “location,” even though most of the footage seems to be from an Asian country. The car was unveiled at the 2015 Frankfu. For the past three months or so, he’s been working on his own Bugatti Vision Gran Turismo replica, which he built from scratch in the same garage where he fixes trucks. Bugatti Vision Gran Turismo is a one-seat concept car developed by Bugatti and produced in Molsheim, Alsace, France. His name is Jack Lee and he goes by Mechanic Jack on social media. There’s a popular saying in showbiz, “if you don’t have it, fake it,” with a more elegant sibling of “fake it until you make it.” Neither ever applies to supercars for a very simple reason: there is absolutely no way someone can replicate at home or in a garage the quality, the materials and the performance of a multi-million car. So is this replica, though it most certainly falls under all Bugatti standards – let alone the fictional ones for the video game version of the Vision.
