Maserati’s 2021 MC20 mid-engine sports car has a 630-hp twin-turbo
V-6 – for now; in the future, we can expect an all-electric version of
this two-seater coupe. Maserati has teamed up with an expert motorsport
engineering company to build the MC20, giving it a carbon-fiber
structure and aluminum subframes that feel light as a feather – and strong as iron.
A prototype of the MC20 has been seen zipping around Modena, Italy
for most of last year, amping up the excitement for its 2021 production
debut.
Perhaps most exciting of all? The ‘MC’ in its name stands for Maserati Corse – a fleeting hint that Maserati may soon revert back to performance-focused track vehicles in a long-anticipated return to racing events.
The Maserati MC20 has a top speed of over 200mph (or 321 kph), and
its acceleration from 0-100kph (0-60mph) is less than three seconds.
14. Bentley Flying Spur Speed: $215,000
With the expansive grille and retro-nostalgic four-headlight aesthetic that makes a Bentley a Bentley, the 2021 Flying Spur Speed is instantly recognizable.
This supercar brings style and comfort to the six-figure auto industry;
its cabin, unlike many performance-focused vehicles, is decked out in
sumptuous leather, highly-polished wood, and glinting metal accents
(now, with a top-of-the-line infotainment centre, as well).
However, this car’s more than just about looks.
With the entry-level 500-level hp motor or the more amped-up
600-level motor, you’ll find that this car is much more athletic and
agile than you’d expect. For a car of its size, it whips around corners
quite nicely.
However, if you’re looking for fuel economy, it might be best to look
elsewhere: The Flying Spur Speed’s fuel usage puts it somewhere among
larger pickup trucks in terms of economy.
207mph (or 330kph); that’s the claimed top speed for this expensive
hypercar; its acceleration, 3.7 seconds for 0-100 kph (0-60mph).
What Is The Most
Expensive Car In The World?
As in the case of the most expensive watches, one of the most important
factors affecting the price of a car is the brand. Supercars from
Bugati, Pagani, Ferrari, McLaren – always cost lot of money, even if
we’re talking about standard models. But the most expensive cars are
always have limited series. As a rule, auto brands make very limited
(sometimes up to 10 cars) series of a cars with exclusive options – and
these cars are the champions in price.

pagani huayra bc cockpit
Coming after the Pagani Huayra, the Pagani Huayra BC is the priciest
Pagani car ever made. Named as a tribute to Benny Caiola, a noted
Italian investor with probably the best collection of Ferraris and a
very close friend of Horacio Pagani, this car is a delight for the
lovers of Pagani’s details.
Debuting at the 2016 Geneva Motor Show, this car has a wider rear track,
new side tracks, and many cool aero features. Like the earlier version,
the 6.0 liter V-12 bi-turbo engine of the BC is sourced from AMG, and
produces 790 horsepower and 811 lb-ft torque. This power is run to the
rear wheels through the tripod drive shafts leveraging a 7-speed Xtrac
transmission. And the most amazing bit is that the BC takes over the
Huayra by changing the model’s standard 150 milliseconds to 75
milliseconds.
At 2,685 pounds (1,218 kilograms), the BC also happens to be a lot
lighter than the Huayra due to the extensive use of carbon fibres and
other lightweight materials.
14. Ferrari Pininfarina Sergio – $3 million
most expensive italian cars
pininfarina ferrari sergio photos
most expensive ferrari
ferrari pininfarina sergio interior
Originally introduced as a concept car in 2013 in memory of a deceased
son of the founder of Pininfarina, the legendary Italian design house,
only six of these cars have been made as of yet, thus becoming one of
the most coveted cars. This is one of the costliest Ferraris ever made
and is based on the Ferrari 458 Spider.
Each of the handmade units has an all-carbon-fibre frame, and is an open
air luxury car with two seats. Like the Ferrari 458, it has no roof,
side windows and windshield, and is 330 pounds lighter than its
ancestor. This makes it smarter and quicker, though it has the same
naturally-aspirated 4.5 liter F136F V-8 engine, which sends 562 hp to
the rear wheels. The renovated interior also comes with a host of
interesting details like aerodynamic headrests built directly into the
roll cage.
The coolest fact about this car though is that the owners of each of the
six models were chosen by the manufacturers themselves, making this one
of the rarest of the rare invite-only vehicles.
13. Aston Martin Valkyrie – $3.2 million
aston martin valkyrie

While there has been no price announced for this car as of yet, expert
estimates place it at around 3.2 million dollars. Built under Andy
Palmer, the new president of Aston Martin committed to solvency and
relevance with awesome cars, this model is a renovation of the old Aston
Martin-Red Bull AM-RB 001.
Legend has it that Palmer agreed to this car over a drink with Red
Racing’s Adrian Newey and Christian Horner. Newey, renowned
aerodynamicist behind Red Bull’s expensive and award-winning sports cars
in the Formula 1 tracks, devised an aerodynamic scheme specifically for
this car that pushes air via the chassis, resulting in downforce
without using the wings.
The 6.5 liter, naturally- aspirated V-12 designed specifically for the
Cosworth, has a 1:1 power /weight ratio, and comes with a Rimac-built
hybrid battery system coming with the engine which yields about a 1,000
horsepower. As of yet, 150 units of this model has been planned by the
company, and the deliveries are expected to start 2019 onward. In
addition, 25 track-only editions have been planned whose prices can only
be speculated at present.
12. Limited Edition Bugatti Veyron by Masory Vivere – $3.4 million

bugatti veyron mansory vivere cockpit
Upgraded four times since its releasze in 2005, the Mansory Vivere
edition of the Bugatti Veyron is not only among the priciest cars of the
world, but also one of the fastest.
Modelled on the Grand Sport Vitesse Roadster, this German car has an
awesome lacquered carbon-fibre body along with a new spoiler package
providing new diffusers, a smarter cabin and front grill, larger side
scoops, a shortened hood, and the like. The upgraded LED lights are
everywhere – the headlight and taillight clusters, the cockpit.
And for the aesthetically conscious, maps of history making events like
the Targa Florio race and the like are laser etched into both the
upholstered, carbon fiber interior, and the exterior. The 8.0 liter W16
engine of the car can produce 1,200 horsepower and 1,106 pound-feet of
torque. The original version could reach up to 253 mph and was named the
Car of the Decade 2000-2009.
11. Lykan Hypersport – $3.4 million
worlds most expensive super car
lykan hypersport photos

The headlights being made of, urm, 240 15-carat diamonds, is the price
very surprising? And then there are the LED blades made of 420 15-carat
diamonds. And all the gems are customizable.
Looking like an armored car with scissor doors and an interior straight
out of a sci-fi movie, this featured in the ‘Furious 7′, and has
actually been drafted by the Abu Dhabi police for patrol duty!
Built by W Motors, based in Lebanon, this is the first Arab supercar.
And it doesn’t fare badly when compared with the traditional European
biggies. Apart from its awesome looks, the twin-turbo mid-rear mounted
3.8 liter flat-six boxer can produce 780 horsepower through the rear
wheels, and a 708 pound-feet of torque. It can do a 62 in a mere 2.8
seconds, and can reach speeds up to 240 mph.
10. McLaren P1 LM – $3.6 million
mclaren p1 lm photos
mclaren p1 lm images
most expensive mclaren
mclaren p1 lm cockpit
Not a production car, this is more or less a street-legal version of the
track-only McLaren P1 GTR. Converted by the British firm Lanzante, who
bought the original P1 built by McLaren, it was made keeping in mind a
select group of buyers in the U. S., Japan, U. K., and the UAE.
This car has a lot in common with the P1 GTR and the legendary McLaren
F1 road car. For example, the gold plating surrounding the engine bay
with a 3.8 liter twin-turbo V-8. It is much smarter than the P1 GTR. Not
only does it weigh 132 pounds (60 kg0 less than the P1 GTR, but its
modified rear wing and enlarged front splitter join with the dive planes
to generate 40% increased downforce as compared to the P1 GTR.
The awesomeness of the aerodynamics can be witnessed where it is made
for- on track, where it can produce 1000 horsepower. As of yet, only
five units have been built, all of them being sold.
9. Lamborghini Veneno Roadster – $4.5 million
most expensive lamborghini in the world
most expensive super car
lamborghini veneno roadster images
lamborghini veneno roadster interior cockpit
Built to celebrate the company’s 50th birthday, ‘Veneno’ literally means
poison in Spanish, and well, the design does look deadly. Looking
almost like an alien space capsule, this car can reach speeds that can
give one of those a run for their money, literally. The 6.5 liter V12
with a seven-speed single clutch ISR automated manual transmission can
spin at 8,400 rpm to yield 740 horsepowers and 507 pound-feet of torque,
meaning that the car can do a 60 mph at 2.9 seconds!
The monoque is heavily inspired by the LP700-4 Aventador, and is made of
carbon fiber. The sprung portion is placed on the top of a
pushrod-actuated suspension, and its total dryweight of this
carbon-fiber vehicle is a mere 3,285 pounds, although it is driven by a
full all-wheel-drive system.
Only 9 units being made, the biggets problem of these cars is their
crazy resells rates- one was sold at $11 millions! It was the most
expensive car in the world ever produced upon its introduction, and only
three being available to customers in the first lot, there was a crazy
scramble to get hands on the remaining ones.
8. Koenigsegg CCXR Trevita – $4.8 million
Koenigsegg CCXR Trevita
koenigsegg ccxr trevita
world most expensive car
koenigsegg ccxr trevita interior
The most expensive street-legal production car in the world, this is
coated with real diamonds. Yes, you read that right. ‘Trevita’ is an
abbreviation translating into ‘three whites’. The carbon fibers are
indeed coated with a diamond dust-impreganted resin, called the
Koenigsegg Proprietary Diamond Weave. This technology transformed the
fibres from the traditional black to shining, silvery white, making the
bodywork of this car renowned throughout for its unique design and
perfection.
And that’s not all. Beneath the coating is a 4.8 liter,
dual-supercharged V8 having a total output of 1,004 horsepower and 797
pound-feet of torque. This makes it well-equipped at overtaking semis in
the freeway. This car comes with a one-of-its-kind dual carbon rear
wing, iconell exhaust system, airbags, ABS powered carbon ceramic
brakes, paddle-shift, infotainment system, chronometer instrument
cluster, tires monitoring systems along with a hydraulic system.
Only three cars of this model had been initially decided upon, before
getting reduced to two, because the carbon fibre made it too difficult
and time-consuming for regular manufacture.
7. Pagani Huayra Imola – $5.4 million
Pagani Huayra Imola
Pagani Huayra Imola
Pagani Huayra Imola
Named after a famous Italian racing track, Huayra Imola’s technical
specs have long been shrouded in mystery. The manufacturer has recently
released the technical details of the supercar. Mercedes-AMG developed a
twin-turbo 6.0-liter V12 engine specifically for Pagani. The engine
pumps magnificent 827 horsepower and 811 pound-feet of torque. The
seven-speed automatic gearbox makes Imola more powerful than any other
car in the Pagani Huayra series.
Some of the spectacular features of the car include a large
seven-section diffuser, a large roof scoop, more definite side-skirts, a
shark fin, and integrated spotlights. The gargantuan wing installed at
the back of the car makes it look more aggressive. The engineers
developed an exclusive paint finish to shed extra weight. They revised
the geometry of the design to give ultimate suspension to the car. They
installed active dampers along with a front-lift system to keep the car
stable under hard acceleration and braking.
Huayra Imola also features an improved Brembo brake package and
especially designed Pirelli Trofeo R tires. Only five examples of Pagani
Huayra Imola would ever be produced. And each is priced at a staggering
$5.4 million.
6. Bugatti Divo – $6 million
Bugatti Divo
Bugatti Divo
Bugatti Divo
Bugatti Divo followed after the immense success of Chiron, however with
exotic and much more exclusive specs. As the creators boast, Bugatti
Divo is the most agile and dynamic car they’ve ever created. The car
generates 456kg downforce at the top speed. The extra drag produced by
the aerodynamic elements has reduced the top speed of Divo to 236mhp,
25mph lower than Chiron’s. With 1500 horsepower, Divo accelerates from 0
to 62mph in 2.4 seconds.
While Chiron focused on top speed, Divo offers enhanced agility and
driving dynamics. The redesigned exhaust system of the car features quad
exhaust pipes and a retractable rear wing. To provide an improved
downforce, Divo is equipped with a NACA duct on the roof that channels
air to the rear of the car. The car also uses improved radiator cooling
for the brakes, which is achieved by two vents, one installed on the
bonnet and the other on the front wheel arches.
Inside the car, the steering wheel is embellished with soft faux suede.
The interior also features Alcantara upholstery. To save weight, the
storage lockers and center console have been removed. And a carbon-fiber
trim has been used throughout the interior. What Divo retains from
Chiron is its quad-turbocharged W16 engine. The 7-speed dual-clutch
transmission has been retained too.
5. Mercedes-Maybach Exelero – $8 million
Mercedes-Maybach Exelero
Mercedes-Maybach Exelero
Mercedes-Maybach Exelero
Built by a German luxury car manufacturer, Maybach Exelero is known for
its peculiar design and price tag of $8 million. Only one model of the
car has ever been produced. Maybach Exelero combines the elegance and
quality of high-end limousines.
The car is powered by a V-12 twin-turbo engine that produces 725 pounds
of torque at 2500 RPM. The engine, mounted at sixty degrees,
incorporates 12 valves with 3 cylinders each. Exelero boasts a top speed
of 218mph and can accelerate from 0 to 62mhp in just 4.4 seconds.
The car was commissioned by a tire company that wanted to test its new
line of tire family. Needless to say, the tires of Exelero are of
magnificent quality. Each tire features a code, specifying its
dimensions and limitations. And to prevent the wheels from locking up
during braking, the car is equipped with ABS. The interior of the car is
embellished with dark and red leather, neoprene, and glossy black
carbon fiber.
Mercedes-Maybach Exelero was featured in singer Jay-Z’s music video. And
the only model of this car is owned by rapper Birdman.
4. Bugatti Centodieci – $9 million

Bugatti Centodieci
With this supercar, Bugatti pays homage to its 110-year old legacy. The
word ‘Centodieci’ means 110 in Italian. The car is equipped with an
8.0-liter W-16 engine capable of producing a staggering 1600 horsepower.
It can accelerate from 0 to 62 absence of the C-shaped pillar gives this car an even
cooler look. The aerodynamics of Centodieci allows for dynamic lateral
acceleration.

13. Aston Martin Lagonda EV: $250,000
Rolls-Royce and Bentley have previously cornered the market
on top-grade sedans. With the 2021 Lagonda EV, Aston Martin is hoping
to break up their duopoly. Lagonda will also seek to thrill the type of
car enthusiasts who have already explored every function that the
higher-grade Teslas have to offer – or, so Aston Martin hopes.
Its wind-whipped silhouette, its battery-powered Aston Rapid-E motor
(that seeks to provide as much power as a V-12), even its name: The
Lagonda is a storied brand that Aston Martin has sought to popularize
before, in the ‘30’s and in the ‘80’s. With this new EV Sedan, they hope
to cement its historic status.
The competition will be fierce.
Rolls-Royce and Bentley have been rumored to be releasing competitors
in the coming months – making this corner of the expensive supercar
market one to watch over the next year.
12. Rolls Royce Ghost: $315,000
For Rolls-Royce’s entry in the Sedan market, look no further than the 2021 update of their gorgeous Ghost model.
While it’s described as an entry-level model for the ultra luxury
brand, the Ghost still has the trappings of a comfortable, powerful
vehicle that one might expect at its price point. Power-operated doors; a cabin cloaked in rich materials; generous space for driver, passengers, and even storage.
A 563-hp 6.7L V-12 powers the Ghost, allowing it an acceleration from
0-100kph and 0-60mph in 4.6 seconds. An all-wheel driving project
allows for speedy steering, even with the bulk that the Ghost carries.
(Its road-scanning camera also allows for easy sighting of potholes,
allowing you the ability to be a more expert driver, as well.)
Its top speed is an electronically-controlled 155mph (249 kph).
11. Ferrari SF90 Stradale: $625,000
To start off, the exterior of the extremely fast 2021 Ferrari SF90 Stradale just screams speed. With a flattened, streamlined aesthetic, this car will turn heads wherever it goes.
It might come as a surprise, then, that the interior of this car is
shockingly comfortable. Generally, speed and luxury don’t go together.
The SF90 Stradale seeks to change that.
This plug-in, hybrid Ferrari is poised to pay homage to the rich
history of this Italian auto house – but also give us an insight into
where the brand will go in the future. Although they present a more
sustainable focus, this expensive supercar won’t blend into a lineup of
other hybrid cars. Nor will it perform similarly.
With a rip-roaring 986 horsepower, top speed of 340kph (311mph) and
2.5 seconds to 100kph (or 60mph), the Stradale redefines what’s possible
for a hybrid supercar.
10. Aston Martin Valhalla: $1,300,000
Another in Aston Martin’s lineup sourcing names from the power and
romance of Norweigian lore, 2021’s Valhalla will also be the result of a
collaboration between Aston Martin and the Red Bull Racing Team. Only
500 of these mid-engine hypercars will be made.
A turbocharged 3L V-6 engine with yet-to-be-disclosed horsepower and
torque will power the Valhalla, which is rumored to be less
performance-focused than the Valkyrie. Instead, this hybrid supercar brings a sustainable edge
to this British auto house, along with streamlined structure and
bodywork. (Its handling is also rumored to be out-of-this world –
perhaps, given its name, this could be expected.)
Aston Martin has mentioned that the interior is filled with space-age
elements and innovations that increase the feeling that this car is
something incredibly new. The infotainment screen is in the middle of
the steering wheel, so your eyes needn’t wander; button-dense dashes of
the past have been replaced with an integrated band that seamlessly
provides audio, ventilation, and lighting.
9. Mercedes AMG One: $2,700,000
Though the production of this car has been delayed for several
months, it’s back on track: “Project One”, as AMG engineers refer to it,
is a go. The long-anticipated 2021 Mercedes AMG One will be a 1000-hp
F1-derived plug-in-hybrid drivetrain, with an exceedingly quiet road
presence.
That’s the entire point of this hypercar: Road presence. This vehicle’s built to mimic Formula One cars – but in a completely street-legal way.
Ever since Formula One had its first inaugural season in 1950, people
have been searching for a way to bring that tech to the streets. With
the AMG One, drivers who can afford to do so, can – and, now, with a
sustainable hybrid model.
According to the Mercedes website, the claimed acceleration for this
car is 0-200kph (or 0-120mph) in 6 seconds. A 1.6-L V6 hybrid petrol and
four electric motors allow the AMG One a top speed of more than 350
kilometres per hour (217 miles per hour).
8. Koenigsegg Jesko: $3,000,000
In a stark leap upward from Ferrari’s Stradale (but, don’t worry,
this won’t be the last Ferrari we see), the Jesko is our first expensive
hypercar that goes for seven figures. From a performance aspect, this
makes sense: the Koenigsegg Jesko is also one of the fastest supercars in the world in 2021 – which definitely goes a long way towards its sticker price.
Swedish auto manufacturer Koenigsegg dreamt up the Jesko as a
suitable successor to its groundbreaking Agera RS. An engine update, a
lighter frame, and a surprising amount of comfortable add-ins make this a
car that’s not only lightning-fast – it’s fun to drive.
Its engine is an overwhelmingly powerful 1280-hp V-8; its nine-speed
transmission is completely bespoke, built in-house by Koenigsegg to be
as quick-shifting as they come. The rear-wheel steering this car boasts
helps with managing downforce and drag, so – even though this is a
powerful car – the driver is in control at all times.
The Jesko Absolut reaches a top speed of 330mph (or 531kph); as of
now, we’re still left to wonder about the breathtaking acceleration
stats this powerful car must produce.
7. Gordon Murray T.50: $3,080,000
The engineer of the McLaren F1, Gordon Murray, has been an
exceptional auto maker for fifty years. In his honour, Gordon Murray
Automotive is building 100 road cars (and 25 track-only vehicles) for
this anniversary hypercar.
Billed by many as ‘the last great analog supercar’,
the T.50 is built in an effort to help Gordon Murray invest in his
brand. It will also serve as an intended capstone, according to Murray –
who has described the upcoming T.50 as “a bookend to the story of ultrafast internal-combustion cars.”
Indeed, many auto houses are focusing on electric models, hybrids, and
other sustainable initiatives. Murray is acknowledging this by going out
for one final hurrah – this vehicle.
It’ll have a six-speed manual gearbox, a small, powerful, and
naturally-aspirated V-12 engine, and (in a further homage to the McLaren
F1) a traditional three-seat layout.
The Gordon Murray T.50 has a claimed top speed of 220mph (354 kph); official acceleration numbers have not yet been released.
6. Bugatti Chiron Super Sport 300+: $5,740,000
At almost double the cost of the Jesko and the Murray T.50, Bugatti’s
Chiron Super Sport 300+ provides speed and power alongside the beauty
that truly makes a Bugatti a Bugatti. Under the hood of each
car leaving this historic supercar manufacturer lie decades of expert
craftsmanship and years of automotive artistry. Bugattis often go for several million – and Bugatti wants you to know that, feel that, every time you see one.
The sinuous curves it wears on its sleek facade are futuristic; it
gets a mind-bending 1,577 horsepower from a quad-turbocharged 8L W-16
motor. Years ago, this vehicle was the first to break the then-golden
speed barrier of 300mph (or 483kph) – and so, much like the most
expensive car in the world, this Bugatti has a claim to fame that will
never allow its value to depreciate.
The Bugatti Chiron Super Sport 300+ accelerates from 0-100kph (0-60mph) in 2.4 seconds. It reaches a top speed of just over 300mph, or 483kph; and, as a perk, does have a basic infotainment system that syncs with both Apple and Android products.
5. Bugatti Divo: $6,000,000
Bugatti’s reputation for luxurious, expensive supercars continues
with the next two cars in our ranking – starting with the 2021 Divo.
Bugatti’s Chiron was such a success that the Divo, a car that closely
follows it, has several similar features. However, the Divo is more
exotic-looking – and much more exclusive.
Only 40 Divos will be produced and sold. Each has already been spoken
for. Its updates include a better suspension, a much lighter frame for
increased speed, and a new dorsal fin. Inside, the Divo houses an 8.0L
W-16 engine with four turbochargers. As a result, the Divo has 1500
horsepower, an acceleration of just over 0-100kph (0-62mph) in 2.4
seconds.
Its top speed? 380km/h (or 236mph).
To save as much weight as possible, Bugatti kept the inside comfort
materials and infotainment to a minimum. However, the steering wheel
does feature soft faux suede – and the blue and black aesthetic outside
is featured inside as well.
4 Bugatti Centodieci: $9,000,000
Bugatti’s 2021 Centodieci will be even more exclusive: Only ten of
these luxurious hypercars will be sold. (Each has found a happy buyer
already, despite the high price.)
Bugatti, already a brand known for unique bodywork and luxurious comfort features, has sought to give the Centodieci everything possible to make it memorable
– and completely decadent. With a 1577-hp quad-turbo W-16, it may not
be the fastest Bugatti currently on the road; but it is the
quickest-accelerating.
With this car, Bugatti pays homage to the EB110 (or the ‘centodieci’), a supercar produced early in the ‘90s. That car didn’t quite have the timing to perform as it was hoped.
This car will make up for that, bringing performance and luxury to
spare. Bugatti has posted a claimed 0-62mph (or just over 0-100kph)
acceleration of 2.4 seconds. The Centodieci will have a top speed of 236
mph, or 379 kph – distinctly less than the Chiron, but this hypercar
makes up for it with its distinct modern aesthetic.
3. Pagani Zonda HP Barchetta: $17,600,000
The Zonda was the first car out of the Pagani Automobili auto house.
Years ago, production should have ceased, favoring the Huayra; instead,
Pagani has come out with many different special editions of the Zonda.
This, the Zonda HP Barchetta, was thus named – barchetta – because, to Horatio Pagani, that’s what it resembled: in Italian, a ‘little boat’.
Its frame is entirely formed of carbon fibre for an ultralight body and
zippy, speedy feel; it’s blue-tinted, it has a minimized windshield,
and it stands only some 21 inches tall (0.5 metres) at its tallest.
Unfortunately, the Pagani Zonda HP Barchetta is also the most
expensive car that you can’t buy. Only three vehicles were ever made of
this unique, specific version of the Zonda. When last sold, one of these
vehicles went for $17.6M.
Its acceleration is 0-60mph or 0-100kph in 3.4 seconds. The Zonda HP Barchetta can reach a top speed of 355kph or 220 mph.
2. Bugatti La Voiture Noire: $18,700,000
In 2019, Bugatti made a brilliant branding decision when rolling out
their latest supercar. Instead of a flashy introduction and name geared
to thrill, the French manufacturer opted for a restrained, minimalistic,
and instantly iconic title: La Voiture Noire. The Black Car.
No other description necessary.
Although, going into details doesn’t interrupt the awe of this
gorgeous vehicle with a sky-high price: It’s got a carbon-fibre shell
that’s sculpted by hand, a quad-turbo W16 8.10L engine that produces
1500 horsepower, and an acceleration of 0-100kph (0-60mph) in 2.4
seconds.
Its top speed is 420 kph (260 mph), and its overall performance is
precision-engineered by an auto house famous for producing the most
powerful cars in the world for decades on end.
In 2019, it was the most expensive new car available for purchase.
Two years have elapsed, and no one has yet released an expensive luxury
car geared to knock La Voiture Noire off that high pedestal. It wins over the price for the most expensive modern car on our list for the second year in a row..
1. 1963 Ferrari 250 GTO: $70,000,000
For the most expensive car of all time, we turn to history. After all, if you’re investing in a gorgeous supercar, it should be one that can tell you a good story.
In 1964, the 250 GTO won the Tour de France Automobile – marking the
ninth year in a row that Ferrari won that race. Only 36 of these cars
were made between 1962 and 1963; the specific Ferrari that’s the most
expensive in the world, at an unbelievable $70,000,000 price point, was
victorious not only in the Tour de France, but it also placed in the Le
Mans.
With a top speed of 174 miles per hour and an acceleration of
0-100kph (0-60mph) in 6.1 seconds, its stats certainly don’t thrill
today’s auto enthusiasts by itself. However, in the ‘60s, it was the
fastest in the world – and, now, decades later, it remains the most
expensive car in the world of all time by a long shot.

4. The Myth About The History Of BMW Logo
A lot of people believe that the logo of BMW represents the
propellers of a helicopter, since the company used to manufacture
propellers before they were barred from doing that by the Russian
government. Well, this is not true, and the real reason behind the blue
and white colour combination on the logo is they were symbols for the
free state of Bavaria, the part of Germany that came under USSR post
World War II.
5. Lamborghini Initially Manufactured Tractors
When Ferruccio Lamborghini took his Ferrari 250GT to get its clutch
replaced and propose the idea of a better clutch, Enzo Ferrari
ferociously replied, “You're just a silly tractor manufacturer, how
could you possibly know anything about sports cars?” Four months after
this incident, Ferruccio launched the first Lamborghini car, the
Lamborghini 350GTV. Since then, there has been no looking back.
