1. Lamborghini Veneno – $3.9 million
| Engine: | 6.5-Liter Naturally-Aspirated V12 | Transmission: | 7-Speed ISR Robotized Manual |
| Top Speed: | 221mph | Weight: | 3,190 lbs (1,450 kg) |
| 0-60 mph: | 2.8 seconds | Power | 750 hp |
| Price: | $3,900,000 | Total Made: | 3 |
It
seems as if companies continue to have no limits when they put a price
tag on a car, especially with a world full of oil millionairess and rich
collectors who will do anything for a rare exotic super car. The
Lamborghini Veneno has just recently raised a bar that will most likely
never stop rising. Revealed at the 2013 Geneva Motor Show, the Veneno
(which in Spanish means
“poison”) celebrates 50th anniversary of Lamborghini as a car maker.
Though the
Veneno is mainly used for the track, we have included it on our list for the Worlds Most Expensive Cars because it is street legal.
Lamborghini
went ahead and upgraded the Aventador’s 6.5-liter naturally-aspirated
V12 to produce 750 horsepower and strapped in a seven-speed ISR
robotized manual gearbox which is then connected to an all-wheel drive
system. Top speed is claimed to be 221 mph and a 0-60 is projected to be
around 2.8 seconds.
So how much does a carbon-fiber monocoque
chassis and carbon-fiber-reinforced-polymer bat-mobile cost? How
about $3.9 million (3 million euros or 2.6 million pounds) and only 3
will be made and sold. All of them are already sold, so chances of ever
seeing one, is slim to none.

Beirut, Lebanon-based automaker, W Motors has stunned the world at
the 2013 Qatar Motor Show when they released their first supercar the
Lykan Hypersport. It was relatively almost unheard until Qatar. For many
years the Bugatti Veyron SS has held the top spot for the world’s
most expensive car for good reason. Now though, the
Lykan
has surpassed the Veyron SS. It may not be the fastest car out there or
the quickest, but it sure takes luxury to a whole new level.With
a price tag that high, the supercar should be lined with diamonds, and
in some parts it actually is. The Lykan will come with
diamond-coated LED lights, a gold-plated hood, a carbon-fiber
chassis,and gold-stitched leather seats . If this is some how not
enough, W Motors will be giving out a Special Edition Cyrus Klepcys
Watch valued at $200,000, to the lucky owners. Who would actually buy
this car? Well surprisingly as of early 2013, sources say that W Motors
have received more than 100 orders.
The Lykan Hypersport is the
second worlds most expensive car. The Lykan sure looks amazing but will
it perform as good as it looks? We will soon find out.
