Who's reaching for their wallets now?

We think it's pretty safe to say that very few of us will ever drive--let alone own--a supercar in our lifetimes. Unless we happen to come across a few million euros lying around somewhere, seeing a McLaren P1 or Lamborghini Huracan parked in our garage just isn't in our cards. Sad.

Fortunately for humble peasants like us, we can still make do with miniature replicas such as the 1:18 Bugatti Chiron pictured above. Produced by MR Collection Models, the scale model you're staring at is as close to having the French supercar as you're ever going to get--albeit, on your desk instead of your driveway.

The model comes in a variety of color schemes including Black Uni, Nocturne/Italian Red, Red Carbon/Glacier, Brown Carbon/Silk and Le Patron/Light Blue Sport (pictured above). It comes out in Q4 of 2016.

If you're worrying about quality, don't. The scale model is an official licensed product of Bugatti, and MR Collection Models is an official supplier of the French carmaker during international car shows and other major events. The company has made 1:18 scale models of every Veyron produced, all of which are displayed on Bugatti's Wall in Molsheim, France.

In contrast, the real Bugatti Chiron goes for around 2.4 million euros (around P124 million).  We're still waiting to turn up on some long-lost, recently-deceased, super-wealthy relative's final will and testament before ordering one for ourselves. So yeah, any day now.
