Bugatti Veyron – Most Expensive Car in the World
The Bugatti Veyron 16.4 reigns as the world’s most expensive car, created by the well renowned manufacturer of automobiles, Bugatti. With the company’s long years of experience in this kind of industry, they have created masterpieces and they have become the epitome of a company with a great passion for automobiles. The company was founded by father and son, Ettore and Jean Bugatti in the year 1901. Together, they were able to create remarkable and extraordinary combinations of art and technology in the automotive industry.
At around $1.7 million, the car is by far the most expensive car in production at present with the closest competitor, the Ferarri Enzon, coming in at around $1 million. For the price of the Veyron you could purchase both the Enzon, and the third place contender, the Pagani Zonda C12 F, which comes in just over $700,000. This price tag is not for nothing though, as the technology in this car, as well as the design and comfort features are all top of the line, and beyond anything most people have seen to date.
The Veyron is a combination of high performance and elegance. This super sports car possesses the capability to travel at remarkable speeds and it undeniably resembles the elements of a classic Bugatti design with a contemporary touch.
Not only is it the most expensive car, but it is also the fastest production car on the road today. Its 1001 HP engine pushes it to its top speed of over 250 mph, which is faster than the 240 mph of the previous holder of the top spot – the McLaran F1.
The Bugatti Veyron is both the fastest and the most expensive car in the world. Whether or not Bugatti holds the top spot for long remains to be seen, but now that they’ve broken both of these records, there’s sure to be some competition between themselves and other luxury and performance car makers.
