World's Most Expensive Cars. 2006

Post by Neil »

Image
#1. Bugatti Veyron 16.4
Country of Origin: France
Price: €1,000,000($1,192,057)
With its notorious production delays finally over, Bugatti's Veyron is now on sale in Europe--and the company wants to bring it to the U.S.

Image
#2. Pagani Zonda Roadster F C12S 7.3, Clubsport version
Country of Origin: Italy
Price: $667,321 (global)
Pagani is a boutique automaker that builds radical-looking racecars. This version of its Zonda flagship has 650 hp

Image
#3. SSC Ultimate Aero
Country of Origin: U.S.
Price: $654,500 (U.S.)
The most expensive American car is also the fastest. Automaker SSC estimates this vehicle is capable of hitting 260 to 273 mph on the track.

Image
#4. Leblanc Mirabeau
Country of Origin: Switzerland
Price: €543,000 ($645,084, global)
Leblanc is ramping up production of its new Mirabeau supercar. The company hopes to make the vehicle street legal for the U.S. by the end of 2006 or early 2007.

Image
#5. Saleen S7 Twin Turbo
Country of Origin: U.S.
Price: €535,000 in Europe ($637,723)
Price in U.S.: $555,000
Saleen's S7 Twin Turbo has fallen to fifth place from first last year, because all four nameplates ahead of it in this year's ranking are new. But the S7 remains one of the more recognizable (that's a relative term here) models on the list.

Image
#6. Koenigsegg CCR
Country of Origin: Sweden
Price: €458,000 in all regions except U.S. ($545,568)
Price in U.S.: $540,000
Koenigsegg's CCR uses an 806-hp V-8.

Image
#7. Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren
Country of Origin: Germany
Price: $452,750 (U.S.)
A mainstay on our lists of the world's fastest and most expensive cars, the delightful SLR McLaren is about as comfortable and sophisticated as a street-legal racecar can be.

Image
#8. Maybach 62
Country of Origin: Germany
Price: €376,200 ($448,153, Europe)
Price in U.S.: $385,250
Maybach's 62 ultra-luxury sedan is made by Mercedes-Benz, which has shocked us by proving that a car that is this expensive to build can turn a profit.

Image
#9. Porsche Carrera GT
Country of Origin: Germany
Price: $440,000 (U.S.)
Some automotive publications claim Porsche has stopped selling its Carrera GT supercar. But at press time, Porsche confirmed that its $440,000
flagship convertible is still available in the U.S.

Image
#10. Maybach 57 S
Country of Origin: Germany
Price: €362,000 in Europe ($430,355)
Price in U.S.: $367,000
Maybach's new model, the 57 S, is designed to be a sportier alternative to its other cars, the 57 and 62.

the enzo was a true exotic with only 399 sold!

my fav picks would be the CarreraGT & the Veyron!

btw, Bugatti is actually Italian, acquired by VW, just like they bought Lamborghini. since they could make transmissions, differentials, etc. which can take that much power... i predict new faster, crazier Lambos are on the way.
