Top 10 most expensive cars in the world
We
are bringing you the list of 10 most expensive cars in the world. At
the top of the list is of course the legendary Bugatti Veyron, most
expensive, most powerful, and fastest production car in the world.
Bugatti Veyron $1,700,000
The
Bugatti Veyron 16.4 is the most powerful, most expensive, and fastest
street-legal production car in the world, with a proven top speed of
over 400 km/h (407 km/h or 253 mph). It reached full production in
September 2005. The car is built by Volkswagen AG subsidiary Bugatti
Automobiles SAS and is sold under the legendary Bugatti marque. It is
named after racing driver Pierre Veyron, who won the 24 hours of Le
Mans in 1939 while racing for the original Bugatti firm. The Veyron
features a W16 engine—16 cylinders in 4 banks of 4 cylinders.
.
According
to Volkswagen, the final production Veyron engine produces between 1020
and 1040 metric hp (1006 to 1026 SAE net hp), so the car will be
advertised as producing "1001 horsepower" in both the US and European
markets. This easily makes it the most powerful production road-car
engine in history.
Ferrari Enzo $1,000,000
The
Enzo Ferrari, sometimes referred to as the the Ferrari Enzo and also
F60 is a 12-cylinder Ferrari supercar named after the company's
founder, Enzo Ferrari. It was built in 2003 using Formula One
technology, such as a carbon-fiber body, F1-style sequential shift
transmission, and carbon-ceramic brake discs. Also used are
technologies not allowed in F1 such as active aerodynamics. After a
maximum downforce of 1709 pounds (775 kg) is reached at 186 mph (301
km/h) the rear spoiler is actuated by computer to maintain that
downforce.

Pagani Zonda C12 F $741,000
The
Zonda C12 F debuted at the 2005 Geneva Motor Show. It is the most
extensive reengineering of the Pagani car yet, though it shares much
with its predecessors including the 7.3 L V12. Power is increased to
602 PS (443 kW/594 hp) with a special clubsport model producing 650 PS
(478 kW/641 hp). The company promises a 3.2 second sprint to 60 mph (97
km/h, a top speed over 374 km/h (225 mph) and it will be the queen in
braking from 300 km/h to 0 (186 mph to 0). The Zonda F clubsport has a
power to weight ratio of 521 bhp/ton (384 W/kg) . Compare, for example,
the Enzo Ferrari which has a power to weight ratio of 483 bhp/ton (356
W/kg).
Koenigsegg CCX $600,910
The
Koenigsegg CCX is the latest supercar from Koenigsegg. CCX is an
abbreviation for Competition Coupe X. The X commemorates the 10th
anniversary of the completion and test drive of the first CC vehicle in
1996. The CCX is intended to be more suitable for the U.S. market and
thus engineered to comply with US regulations. The CCX is powered by a
Koenigsegg designed and assembled, all aluminium, 4700 cm³ DOHC
32-valve V8 based on the Ford Modular engine architecture enhanced with
twin Rotrex centrifugal superchargers with response system, 1.2 bar
boost pressure and an 8.2:1 compression ratio. The engine produces 806
hp (601 kW) and 678 lbf.ft (920 Nm) on 91 octane (U.S. rating)
gasoline, 850 hp (634 kW) on 96 octane (Euro rating) gasoline and 900
hp (671 kW) on biofuel.
Porsche Carrera GT $484,000
The
Porsche Carrera GT is a supercar, manufactured by Porsche of Germany.
The Carrera GT is powered by an all-new 5.7 litre V10 engine producing
612 SAE horsepower (450 kW). Porsche claims it will accelerate from 0
to 100 km/h (62.5 mph) in 3.9 seconds and has a maximum speed of 330
km/h (206 mph), although road tests indicated that in actuality the car
could accelerate from 0-60 in under 3.5 seconds and to 0-100 in 6.8
seconds and has a top speed of 335-340km/h (209-212.5mph).
Mercedes SLR McLaren $455,500
The
Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren is a sports car and supercar automobile
co-developed by DaimlerChrysler and McLaren Cars. It is assembled at
the McLaren Technology Centre in Woking, England. Most people presume
"SLR" to stand for "Sportlich, Leicht, Rennsport" (German for "Sport;
Light; Racing"). The car's base price is £300,000 or $455,500. The SLR
has a supercharged 5.5 (5439cc) litre dry sumped 90 degree V8. It
produces 466.8 kW at 6500rpm (626 hp) and 780 N·m (575 ft·lbf) torque
at 3250 - 5000 rpm.
Maybach 62 $385,250
The
Maybach 57 and 62 were the first automobile models of the Maybach brand
since the brand's revival by DaimlerChrysler. They are derived from the
Mercedes-Benz Maybach concept car presented at the 1997 Tokyo Motorshow
(which was based on the Mercedes-Benz S-Class sedan). DaimlerChrysler
attempted to buy the Rolls-Royce/Bentley marque when Vickers offered
the company up for sale. When this attempt failed (they were outbid by
BMW and Volkswagen respectively) they introduced the Maybach as a
direct challenger in 2002. Both models are variants of the same
ultra-luxurious automobile. The model numbers reflect the respective
lengths of the automobiles in decimetres; the 57 is more likely to be
owner-driven while the longer 62 is designed with a chauffeur in mind.
The engine is a Mercedes-sourced 5.5-liter twin-turbo V12, generating
550 hp.
Rolls-Royce Phantom $320,000
The
Rolls-Royce Phantom is a luxury saloon automobile made by Rolls-Royce
Motor Cars, a BMW subsidiary. It was launched in 2003 and is the first

48-valve, V12 engine that produces 453 hp (338 kW) and 531 ft·lbf (720
N·m) of torque. The engine is derived from BMW's existing V12
powerplant. It is 1.63 m (63 in) tall, 1.99 m (74.8 in) wide, 5.83 m
(228 in) long, and weighs 2485 kg (5478 lb). The body of the car is
built on an aluminium spaceframe and the Phantom can accelerate to 60
mph (100 km/h) in 5.7 s.
Lamborghini Murcielago $279,900
The
Lamborghini Murciélago is a GT and supercar automobile made by
Automobili Lamborghini S.p.A. and designed by Luc Donckerwolke. It was
introduced in 2002 as the successor to the Diablo. The body style is a
two door, two seat coupé. The LP640 version was introduced at the
Geneva Motor Show in March of 2006. It features a 6.5 L engine, now
producing 640 bhp, improving performance substantially. There were also
a few minor external changes, primarily to the low air intakes.
Aston Martin Vanquish $255,000
The
Aston Martin V12 Vanquish is a supercar manufactured by Aston Martin
since 2001. It rose to fame after being featured as the official James
Bond car in Die Another Day, the twentieth James Bond film. In the
film, the Vanquish has the usual Bond film embellishments, including
active camouflage which rendered the vehicle virtually invisible. The
Vanquish is powered by a 5.9 L (5935 cc) 48-valve 60° V12 engine, which
produces 343 kW (460 hp) and 542 N·m (400 ft·lbf) of torque. It is
controlled by a fly-by-wire throttle and a 6 speed 'paddle shift' or
semi-automatic transmission. A special V12 Vanquish S debuted at the
2004 Paris Auto Show with the power upped to 388 kW (520 hp) and 577
N·m (426 ft·lbf)
