The renowned Puerto Rican singer, Bad Bunny, has decided to let go of his extravagant Bugatti Chiron, one of the world's most exclusive and expensive cars. This remarkable vehicle, famous for its power and stunning design, now has a new owner: Oscar Fernández, an Argentine collector of sports cars, who eagerly shared his excitement on social media.
Fernández, thrilled with his latest acquisition, posted several videos of himself driving the Bugatti, noting that the car "roars like a jet." It's worth mentioning that this Bugatti Chiron can reach speeds exceeding 400 km/h. Bad Bunny, whose real name is Benito Martínez Ocasio, purchased the Bugatti in 2020 for over $3 million. The purchase was driven by the need for a high-end vehicle for his performance at the 2020 Latin Grammy Awards, recorded on the Teodoro Moscoso Bridge in Puerto Rico. However, his relationship with the supercar was short-lived and fraught with challenges.
The artist admitted in several interviews that although the car is impressive, it didn't fit with his lifestyle. "I don't know what to do with the damn car," he confessed, expressing frustration over a possession that, instead of bringing satisfaction, caused logistical headaches.
Now, with Oscar Fernández as the new owner, the Bugatti Chiron gets a second chance to be fully enjoyed. Fernández, a high-end car enthusiast, expressed his joy over the acquisition, thanking those who facilitated the deal and highlighting the car's unique features: its powerful roar and extreme speed, an experience reserved for a select few.
With this sale, Bad Bunny bids farewell to one of his most controversial possessions. Although he can afford such luxuries thanks to his success, his decision underscores the notion that true satisfaction doesn't always come from the most expensive items.
The buyer shared a video of the luxurious vehicle on his Instagram stories, accompanied by the message: "Thanks to my friend Nico Vacca for getting me this car and convincing Bad Bunny to sell it to me. Yes, as you see, 'Duraznito' has connections!"
The Bugatti Chiron is among the most exclusive cars globally, with only 20 units produced. While Bad Bunny paid $3 million for it at the time of purchase, the final sale price remains undisclosed.
Following the car's purchase, Benito—Bad Bunny's real name—explained that he bought the Bugatti after a company refused to rent him one for his performance video at the 2020 Latin Grammy Awards. The presentation was recorded on the Teodoro Moscoso Bridge in Puerto Rico.
