Whether you’re into clothes, watches, or audio equipment, the absolute best tends to come at a high cost. This is especially true when it comes to the world of automobiles. There are several great sub-$100,000 vehicles out there—like the BMW M2 or the Alfa Romeo Giulia QV, the latter of which cracked our 2024 Car of the Year contender list—but if you want something truly special, like a hypercar, luxury saloon, or super SUV, prepare to spend a lot more. These cars combine unforgettable design work (both inside and out) with next-level technology and boundary-pushing performance, none of which ever comes cheap. These vehicles require a staggering amount of investment to design, develop, and build, which is why they can end up costing more than a house—or three.
Here are the 50 most expensive cars currently being built by the likes of Ferrari, Koenigsegg, McLaren, Bugatti, and Rolls-Royce, among others. Sure, you’ll need to throw down a ton of cash if you want to add one to your roster of vehicles, but chances are you won’t mind once you’re behind the wheel.

Lamborghini Temerario — $360,000 to $430,000

Yes, the Lamborghini Temerario, the supercar maker’s follow-up to the decade-old Huracán, only features a V-8, but it’s more powerful than its V-10-powered predecessor. That’s because the twin-turbocharged 4.4-liter mill is joined by a trio of electric motors like those utilized by its big brother, the Revuelto. The resulting hybrid powertrain pumps out a very impressive 907 horses, significantly more than the 631 hp made by the range-topping Huracán Performante. Add in a sleek body and a luxe cabin that could almost be called spacious and you have yourself one of the most exciting supercar debuts in a while.
Debut: 2024
Powertrain: Twin-turbocharged 4.4-liter V-8 and three electric motors
Power: 907 hp and 538 ft lbs of torque
Zero to 60 mph: 2.7 seconds
Top Speed: 213 mph

Leave it to Rolls-Royce to take the SUV to luxurious new heights. The Cullinan—named after the largest gem-quality diamond ever found—fits into British marque’s lineup better than you’d expect. That’s because the brand’s priorities, including luxury and comfort, both carry over to the SUV class quite well. The model, which was introduced in 2018, is a bigger and more commanding Phantom with a roof that extends all the way to the rear of the vehicle. The cabin features all the amenities you’d expect from one of the brand’s cars only with more space. The top-of-the-line, blacked-out Black Badge variant also comes with a twin-turbocharged V-12 that pumps out 591 hp and 664 ft lbs of torque.
Debut: 2019
Powertrain: Twin-turbocharged 6.75-liter V12 engine
Power: 592 hp and 664
Zero to 60 mph: 4.5 seconds
Top Speed: 155 mph

Ferrari 12Cilindri — $430,000 to $475,000

Let’s get this out of the way: All Ferraris are special, but there some are better than others. Meet the 12Cilindri, the company’s latest flagship V-12. AT a time when the rest of the industry, including Ferrari, are moving towards electrification, the 12 Cilindri is a throwback to the way things used to be. No, it doesn’t have a manual transmission—oh to dream!—but it is a front-engined grand tourer with a design that’s athletic and sophisticated. Of course, the real story here, as the name underscores, is the 12-cylinder engine beneath the vehicle’s long hood. The 6.5-liter mill pumps out 819 horses and 500 ft lbs of twist. Thanks to that, the two-seater can sprint hit 62 mph in under three seconds. It’s little wonder the latest Prancing Horse coupé starts at $430,000, with the open-top version commanding a 10-percent premium.
Debut: 2024
Powertrain: 6.5-liter V-12
Power: 819 hp and 500 ft lbs of torque
Zero to 62 mph: 2.9 seconds
Top Speed: 211 mph

Rolls-Royce Spectre — $440,000

Even Rolls-Royce is going electric. The British automaker unveiled its first EV, the Spectre, last fall. The thought of the brand putting out a car not powered by one of its trademark V-12s may seem sacrilegious to some, but the model has what it takes to win over the doubters. The super coupé is beautiful inside and out, and thanks to the lack of engine noises just might deliver an even more serene ride than its predecessors. It will still deliver visceral thrills, though. Its dual-motor powertrain that produces 576 horses, allowing the EV to scoot from zero to 60 in 4.4 seconds. Not bad for a first try, right?
Debut: 2023
Powertrain: Dual electric motors
Power: 577 hp and 664 ft lbs of torque
Zero to 60 mph: 4.4 seconds
Top Speed: 155 mph

Rolls-Royce Ghost Black Badge — $443,000

Rolls-Royce has boasted that it makes the best car in the world since the Silver Ghost rolled off the line in 1906. So, any vehicle named after this must be special, and the Ghost, which was introduced in 2009, certainly is. The full-size saloon is basically the platonic ideal of a Rolls—as much a joy to drive as it is to be driven in. This is especially true of the high-performance Black Badge variant. This blacked-out version of the four-door is powered by a specially tuned 6.6-liter V-12 that pumps out 591 hp and and 664 ft lbs of torque, increases of 28 hp and 37 ft lbs of torque over the standard version. Thanks to the extra power, the car can shoot from zero to 60 mph in 4.5 seconds. Who knew a gas-powered Rolls could be so quick?
Debut: 2021
Powertrain: Twin-turbocharged 6.75-liter V12 engine
Power: 592 hp and 664 ft lbs of torque
Zero to 60 mph: 4.5 seconds
Top Speed: 155 mph

Rolls-Royce Phantom — $458,000

The eight-generation Phantom is likely what pops into your head when you think of a Rolls-Royce. That’s partly because the British marque has been using the name across a variety of models for nearly 100 years now, but also because the full-size saloon is about as grand as cars get these days. The current Phantom, which made its debut last year, is an elegant four-door with a powerful twin-turbocharged V-12 beneath its hood that produces 563 hp and 664 ft lbs of torque. Of course, if you prefer to be driven, the car is just as satisfying thanks to an ultra-quiet and elegant interior decorated to your exact specification.
Debut: 1925 (current version 2017)
Powertrain: Powertrain: Twin-turbocharged 6.75-liter V12 engine
Power: 563 hp and 664 ft lbs of torque
Zero to 60 mph: 5.1 seconds
Top Speed: 155 mph

Ferrari SF90 Stradale — $524,815 to $575,445

Purists hate when a beloved automaker tries to shake things up. This is doubly true when the marque in question is Ferrari. Still, we find it hard to imagine there’s anyone that’s still skeptical of the SF90 Stradale. The brand’s first plug-in hybrid and all-wheel-drive sports car looks like it’ll be one of the defining cars of its era. That’s because the vehicle pairs a brash and angular design with next-level performance. In fact, the SF90 Stradale launched as the most powerful Ferrari of all time, with a combined 986 hp (769 of which comes from its twin-turbo 4.0-liter V-8). And if you enjoy feeling the wind blow through your hair, just know that the convertible delivers the same jaw-dropping performance.
Debut: 2019
Powertrain: Twin-turbocharged 4.0-liter V-8 and three electric motors
Power: 986 hp and 590 ft lbs of torque
Zero to 60 mph: 2.0 seconds
Top Speed: 155 mph

Aston Martin Vantage GT3 — $726,000

The next-generation Aston Martin Vantage may not be expensive enough to make this list—the slick coupé starts around $200,000—but its customer race car equivalent costs more than enough. The track-focused vehicle has been heavily modified for endurance racing and features a roll cage, updated suspension, and an all-new aero package that includes a giant rear wing. It’s powered by the same twin-turbocharged 4.0 V-8 as the road car, but the mill has actually been detuned so that it only produces between 500 and 600 hp, the GT3 limit. Aston Martin hasn’t said how many examples it will build but expects to have 30 on race tracks around the world by year’s end.
Debut: 2024
Powertrain: Twin-turbo 4.0-litre V8
Power: 536 hp and 516 ft lbs of torque
Zero to 60 mph: 3.4 seconds
Top Speed: 202 mph
