Million Dollar Cars
Which of the world's finest cars cost a million dollars? More importantly, which of those million dollar cars are really worth a million dollars or even more than a million dollars?
Let's start at the top of the million dollar cars totem pole. Weighing in at 8 million dollars and literally weighing in at 2.66 tons is the carbon fiber and neoprene Maybach Exelero below, whose 8 million dollar price tag is inflated because most of it represents development costs for a one-off custom made car.
Among
the million dollar cars that you can actually buy, the 1000 horsepower Bugatti Veyron tops the list at 2 million dollars.
Slightly less powerful but sexier are a couple of 1 million dollar cars: Ferrari Enzo
and the ultra-sleek Saleen.Thereafter, we drop down into cars that cost mere six-figures. Mercedes Benz SLR McLaren and the Porsche Carrera GT are two of the cars that weigh in at $500,000.
In between $500,000 and $250,000 are the likes of Lamborghini Murcielago, Aston Martin Vanquish, Ferrari F430, and the less sporty Rolls Royce Phantom, Maybach 62 and 57, Bentley Arnage and Brooklands, and under $250,000 lie the mass market BMWs, the other Mercedes, Porsches, Jaguars, etc.
So back to our question: which car is worth the money? Or more precisely, which one should you buy?
