Tracy Morgan’s Crashed Bugatti Will Cost a Fortune to Fix
“I only had the car for two minutes!”
Tracy Morgan will have to pay the price of a 2020 Jeep Gladiator to fix his $2 million Bugatti after an unfortunate fender bender earlier this month.
TMZ first reported that the comedian was sideswiped by a Honda CR-V just 15 minutes after driving a 2012 Veyron 16.4 Grand Sport off the showroom of a Manhattan dealership.
Morgan was predictably livid at the scene of the accident—video shows him pounding on the SUV’s window.

Now the gossip site’s sources say it’ll cost the former SNL star $22,000 just to repair the hypercar’s front bumper, and another $10,000 for the driver’s side quarter panel. The $32,000 grand total doesn’t even include labor costs.
According to an NYPD traffic cop, Morgan wasn’t at fault. But the driver of the Honda, Jocelyn Madulid, told the New York Post a different story.
“We are both turning right — people are still crossing,” she said. “So what happened is we’re both turning right. But I know he hit me because I was already [turning]. I was there, he was the one who hit me!”

Meanwhile, The Last O.G star joked about the incident during a recent stand-up set at Caroline’s Times Square.
“I only had the car for two minutes!” Morgan said, reports the Post.
“The dealer was still waving goodbye to me from the lot! I hadn’t even turned the radio on yet!”
“I called my wife to tell her, and the first thing she asked was: ‘How much are we getting?’ ”
He also referenced his near-fatal wreck in 2014, when a Mercedes-Benz van carrying him and friends was struck by a Walmart semi-truck.
“It could have been worse. I could have been hit by a Bob’s Discount Furniture truck!”
For Madulid’s sake, we hope she has damn good insurance.
