Zenvo ST1 – $1.225 million


With production being limited to only 3 cars per year and a grand total of 15 cars to be produced, the Zenvo ST1 has put Denmark on the map in terms of the supercar industry. The 7.0 liter V8 has both a turbocharger and supercharger strapped to it, propelling it to a top speed of 233 mph, with a price of $1,225,000. The Zenvo ST1 is number 9 in our list the most expensive cars.

Hennessey Venom GT Spyder - $1.1 million


Hennessey Performance Engineering produced the Venom GT to great success. It has broken many world records including the Guinness World Record for an average 0-186 mph (0-300 km/h) acceleration time of 13.63 seconds, making it the quickest production car in the world. Aerosmith lead singer Steven Tyler requested that a open-top version should be created of the Venom GT which would add 30 lbs to the car. Hennessey agreed and they increased the engine boost to 1,244 brake horsepower to keep the power/weight ratio at one horsepower-per-kilogram. The Venom GT Spyder is one of the fastest but most expensive convertibles on the roads today.

the McLaren P1


The Most Expensive Cars, the McLaren P1 is a super car to reckoned with. Also revealed at the 2013 Geneva Motor Show, the P1 features a mid-mounted 3.8 liter twin-turbo V8 petrol engine working side by side with an electric motor mounted to the back of the engine and producing up to 176 hp and 192 lb-ft, for a combined output of 903 horsepower and 664 lb-ft of torque. The rear-wheel McLaren P1 will be hooked up to a single dual-clutch seven-speed gearbox. McLaren P1 might not be as powerful as the V12 LaFerrari, but it almost mocks the performance numbers of the LaFerrari for almost $1.5 million less.
