A Ford Fiesta costs around $19,000 drive away, which is about 0.0086% of the 2.2mil that a Bugatti Veyron costs.

Ford Pen costs about $10, which is about 0.0006% of the $16,000 that the Bugatti Pen costs.

So relatively speaking, the Pen is more expensive then the car.

pretty sure the veyrons are built at a loss, so any money they make on the side is a bonus.
