The 27 Most Expensive Cars in the World - Newsweek

What would you do if you were a billionaire? Would you buy a few high-end apartments in the world's most exciting cities? Invest in a business, fund a charity, collect valuable art or rare gems, maybe travel the world?

A billion dollars will allow you to do all that and more—but it can also get you a pretty lavish car. Some lucky billionaires have done just that, dropping millions on the world's most exclusive and expensive vehicles.

Brands like Bugatti, Lamborghini, Ferrari, and Pagani have produced cars that are as rare as they are luxurious, which can only mean one thing: they all come with a hefty price tag.

Find out below which cars make the list of the most expensive cars in the world, based on how much the cars cost at the time they were released. They may be worth even more now—if their owners could ever bear to part with them.

The list also does not include any vintage cars that may have been sold at auction, like the 1963 Ferrari GTO which sold for $70 million in 2018—but that doesn't mean that the cars are any less extraordinary.

Using data from Car and Driver, Motor 1, Motor Authority, CarBuzz, Wired, Business Insider, CNN, Beautiful Life, and High Snobiety, here Newsweek lists all the expensive cars you can never afford

So buckle up and find out just how much the world's richest inhabitants are spending on their cars.
