Forbes' most expensive cars.

[Fleischmann]

I found this info on a Polish car site, so I thought I just might post it. The Forbes magazine, known for it's annual "richest guy in the world" ranking, has just done a ranking on the most costly cars available on the American market. Prices in USD:

Ferrari Enzo (652 000)
Porsche Carrera GT (440 000)
Saleen S7 (440 000)
Maybach 62 (352 000)
Rolls Royce Phantom (320 000)
Lamborghini Murcielago (282 000)
Bentley Arnage RL (257 000)
Aston Martin V12 Vanguish (236 000)
Ferrari 575 M Maranello (228 000)
Ferrari 360 Modena Spirit (193 000)


BTW...WTF is a Modena Spirit ??

[Tomerville]

Yeah, what is the Modena Spirit? Thats curious, because the Maybach 62 has not been imported and Mercedes of Park Avenue (in New York) said that it wouldn't be either for a lack of market.

[Fleischmann]

Yep, I just checked the price...it is the CS. Where the hell did they get that name from though??

[bmagni]

[No.1]

I suppose the SLR is still not avaiable in the US...

And the konigsegg wheres that guess don't they sell it over there. I know there was one in the Gumball but he was english and it was RHD

Modena Spirit ? that has to be Modena Spider , and the Enzo is NOT available in the American market , its just sold privately

Good luck finding an Enzo in the U.S. for $650.000! I doubt you can find one under $900000 (except for the crashed one that was on e-bay).

That is the one at 900k ... the rest are over 1.3 million ... and that i think does not count as US formal market :?

The crashed one was $250000. And, yes, most of the others are probabily grey market.

is it really possible to buy enzo under 700 000 EUR??? From where?? www.mobile.de offers almost new enzos for like 999 000 EUR and up to 1,2 M EUROS... PLease explain.

[HeilSvenska]

Just wait until Bugatti Veyron starts appearing at E-Bay...

[mit5005]

Is this used cars or new cars? Because wouldnt the Mclaren F1 be the most expensive if it includes used cars?

Offer and demand of course .... there are 399 enzos , ppl are willing to pay up to 1.5 million dollars for them .... so the price rises up till the ppl are willing to pay the most for the cars , which is the problem ?

And all those are grey market cars , the originals were like 600k euros

[PATo355]

Btw , its impressive that in that page , mobile.de there are 21 enzos listed , from 399 !!!!!!!!! that is 5% of the total production

Actually they are available. The first one landed on the Gold Coast in Long Island New York with more following this spring.

what about the konig cc? is that sold in the us?

[PATo355]

Not yet , neither the Pagani Zonda , i bet its too expensive to crash 4 of them in the Us for crash proof approvals , and they wouldnt be able to meet the demand

i dont get thet crashing 4 cars test!
thay could do it in the computer and it would b the same thing!

[adlinyusman]

yeah but the regulations are extremely strict in the States, so they have to crash the car itself (as well as a digital recreation of the event) to see how a passenger/driver or pedestrian gets thrown about in an accident.
