The prices for the most expensive cars fluctuate depending on customer build requests, which-among the buyers of the world’ s most expensive cars-can get rather baroque. But based on the most recent prices and demands, we have a gripping list of most expensive cars which are truly drool worthy.
The most expensive cars in the world are about so much more than transportation. These rolling art pieces encapsulate the priorities of the one percent, and in that universe, flamboyance and swagger take precedence over practicality and efficiency. Lifestyle criticisms aside, these are truly mind-boggling machines, and we’ d like to count down our favorites for you here. These cars mixed high style, an absurd set of performance capabilities, innovative materials and build techniques, and, of course, an unparalleled price tag
1- Koeniggsag CCXR Trevita $ 4.8 million:
The most expensive streetlegal production car in the world. With no exaggeration, the car is literally coated in diamonds and diamonds aren’ t cheap.
For the Trevita, the Swedish manufacturer developed a new exterior finish called the Koenigsegg Proprietary
Diamond Weave, which involves coating carbon fibers with a diamond dustimpregnated resin. We can’ t even fathom how much the touch-up paint costs.
Underneath the lustrous finish lies a 4.8-liter, dualsupercharged V8 with a total output of 1,004 horsepower and 797 pound-feet of torque, which means it should have little to no trouble overtaking semis on the freeway. The car’ s specifications— in both performance and price— are nearly comical at this point, and just three were ever made.
2- Lamborghini Veneno $ 4.5 million:
Poison. That’ s the name Lamborghini chose for the modified Aventador roadster you see above— translated from Spanish of course— built to celebrate the automaker’ s 50th birthday. We can’ t speak for the company’ s motivations, but the name is fitting for a vehicle that looks so positively deadly, so undeniably venomous.
The car is absolutely stunning from every angle, and to this day, we’ re not convinced it isn’ t an alien spacecraft surveying our planet for eventual takeover. It just doesn’ t seem real.
The only thing more remarkable than the look is the price— a whopping $ 4.5 million, clearly putting it on our list of the most expensive cars.
The Veneno is fast, and that should come as no surprise. Its 6.5-liter V12 spins all the way up to 8,400 rpm to deliver 740 hp and 507 lb-ft, surging the car to 60 mph in 2.9 seconds.
3- McLaren P1LM- $ 3.7 million:
The McLaren P1 LM is the most expensive car in the world in early part of 2017. Go ahead and dispute it, because you can. But first, consider the caveats: McLaren didn’ t actually build this car. They built the original P1, which was then acquired by Lanzante Motorsports, which painstakingly rebuilt the P1, transforming a near-perfect supercar into a definitive work of art that will one day be remembered as a crowning achievement of all humanity.
It takes cues from the McLaren P1 GTR [ see above ] and the storied McLaren F1 road car. Like the F1, the LM has gold plating in the engine bay. And the engine which the gold surrounds is a 3.8-liter twin-turbo V-8. Combined
