Nowadays, owning a car is a must as it gives you mobility and freedom to go when and where you wish. From the moment they were invented, the cars have improved systematically. Each year new technologies and designs are introduced for satisfying the more and more demanding customers. For some, a car is like a toy- when they have the first one it is the best thing but then, they want something new and better. It is almost like an addiction.

Also, a car can be considered as a projection of their personality- many clients buy a car which has a little of their character. Speaking of clients, we must not forget the wealthy people who can have almost every car they wish, who have collections of cars and never get bored of them. For them, were created the next cars included in the "Top ten most expensive cars". When you afford to buy whatever you wish, buying a very expensive car is not a caprice but a way to give yourself the best comfort and security while driving.

It takes 3.3 seconds to reach 60 mph and it has a top speed of 211 mph. This car is quite rare- as only 20 were produced and has a very impressive and futuristic design.



The number one - as the most expensive car in the world- is Bugatti Veyron- with a price tag of $1,700,000. Veyron is the most expensive legal street car available today.

These amazing cars are every man's dream but, sad enough only few can own them. Besides offering high comfort, extreme speeds, the newest technologies and an important visual effect, these cars offer social status, general admiration and envy. I think this is a good motivation for working hard: owning one of the coolest cars in the world!
