The most expensive cars are often the most unique cars, and as such, they are the object of a cult. Among these cults is the ranking of the most expensive cars, which car is in the top 3?
The Rolls-Royce swpetail
Let's start this journey with the one that holds the third place in this ranking with a sum of 11.4 million: the Rolls-Royce Sweptail. This haute couture automobile is a one-off and is modelled on the design of the 1920s-1930s. With a yacht-like inspiration, this vintage car has two seats and took four years to make. This gem has a 6.75L v12 engine with 460 horsepower which gives it a reasonable amount of power. Indeed, it is more of a prestige car than a sports car which does not detract from its ability to hold its own on the road.
The pagani zonda HP Barchetta
In 2018 The pagani was the most expensive car in the world, but was later dethroned, bringing it to second place with its 15 million euros. Produced in only three examples, this car was created according to the wishes of the Argentine Horacio Pagani. The blue carbon fibre bodywork has a single window. The special feature is said to be the half-square rear wheels. As for the criteria that everyone is looking for, and that are well known, this car has a V12 engine with 6 litres of petrol. This same engine has 800 horsepower, but the acceleration is unknown or rather veiled.
Bugatti The Black Car 2019
Finishing on the top step of the podium is the Grail of cars, the latest addition to the uniquely crafted luxury jewels: Bugatti La Voiture Noire 2019. With a price tag of 16 million euros and a 16-cylinder, 8-litre engine with 1500 horsepower, the black car is the undisputed queen. Above all, with a top speed of 400 km/h and acceleration from 0 to 100 km in 2.4 seconds, it is the pinnacle of racing cars.
