World's fastest car !!!
The Bugatti Veyron costs 1.2 million and is currently the most expensive and fastest factory built car in the world. Bugatti is a division of Volkswagon and will be available in the U.S. sometime this year.
I'm sure there are more expensive collector cars out there but nothing produced in the last 10 years is more expensive then the Bugatti.
Here are some "production" vehicles and their costs:
Mercedes Maybach - £281,380 (made in Germany) $492,415.00US
Rolls-Royce - £250,000 (UK) $437,500.00US
Saleen S7 - £234,000 (US) $409,500.00US
Bentley Azure - £223,000 (UK) $390,250.00US
Lamborghini Murciélago - £162,000 (Italy)
Aston Martin Vanquish - £135,000 (UK)
Ferrari 575 M Maranello - £127,000 (Italy) $283,500.00US
Bentley Continental GT - £110,000 (UK) $192,500.00US
Porsche GT2 - £106,000 (Germany)
$185,500.00US
Arguably, rare, specialized and antique cars will "cost" more...
The world's most expensive car is up for sale. And whether or not you think it's worth the estimated $10 million asking price, it's no doubt exceedingly rare, beautiful and--like many follies in automotive history--a triumph of hubris over reason.
This Bugatti Type 41 Royale was the brainchild of Ettore Bugatti--and also a hugely expensive misstep in the history of his firm. In the 1920s, Bugatti was expecting to get a contract from the French military to build 16-cylinder aircraft engines. The contract never materialized, but Bugatti felt he could use half that engine, a straight eight, to form one of the most amazing luxury cars in history. http://www.forbes.com/2001/11/05/1105vow...
