Cars have always been considered as one of the trappings of a luxurious life. Cars are often chosen for their performance, as well as their looks. Cars that take your breath away are often not seen every day and you can usually hear them before you can see them. However, these beauties do not come cheap, they are the most expensive cars in the world.
Aston Martin One-77
This amazing car has been named as such because only 77 of these cars have been built so far; with the first of these cars having been delivered to the customer in 2010. The Aston Martin is synonymous with James Bond and many owners have certainly bought into the 007 fantasy. The car can reach the maximum speed of 220 mph, all thanks to its V12 engine that is capable of delivering 750 hp. The market price of this car is about $1.40 million.
Lamborghini Reventon Roadster
This is perhaps the costliest Lamborghini car to have ever been developed. The fighting bull, over which a number of Lamborghini cars have been named, has been retained for this work of art. Powered by a 670 bhp engine, this car can easily race up to 211 mph under standard conditions. It is priced at a whopping $1.46 million. Interestingly, only 20 of these cars have been built so far, making them a serious collector’s item for the seriously rich.
Pagani Zonda Cinque Roadster
Priced at $1.88 million, Pagani is one of the most expensive cars to have been built. The cost of this car can be attributed to the fact that only five of these cars have been manufactured in the recent years. The first of these cars was delivered to a dealer based in Hong Kong. Named after Juan Fangio, a F1 legend, the car is ably powered by its 678 bhp engine that is capable of driving this mean machine to a maximum speed of 217 mph. This is a car that easily impresses the crowds.
Bugatti Veyron Super Sport
This Bugatti car is not just an expensive one at $2.03 million but also one of the fastest machines designed. Prior to the advent of Bugatti Sport on the scene, the tag of fastest car on this planet was with SSC Aero TT. The car has the distinction of reaching a top speed of 267 mph under normal driving conditions and is well aided by a 678 bhp engine. Wealthy car enthusiasts usually have this creature at the top of their shopping list.
Koenigsegg CCXR Edition
The tag of most expensive car on earth, at the present moment, goes to the Koenigsegg CCXR edition. The fact that it is also a ‘green car’ means that it is truly a special car. The distinction of manufacturing this supercar goes to Koenigsegg, the Swedish carmaker. With speeds of up to 259 mph with its 1064 bhp engine, the car can certainly perform. Another special attribute of this car is its chassis – made of carbon fiber technology.
