update: ridiculously expensive cars

A fool is born every minute. The rich ones will buy these cars:
[Zenvo]
[Tramontana, of Spain]
[SSC]
[Aston Martin]
Info from Yahoo/AP
Soon to be seen at the Geneva Motor Show next month (4 March 2010),
some of the world’s most incredible, most costly production cars:

1 - Zenvo ST1: £2m

top speed: 232mph
Two million pound price tag for this 'one of 15' Danish sizzler. Mad.

2 - Koenigsegg Trevita: £1.5m

3 - Bugatti Veyron: £1.3m

4 - Aston Martin One-77: £1.2m

top speed: 205mph

Approximately 60 have been sold, but before the 77 production run is complete Aston has apparently raised the price from £1m to £1.2m.

5 - Pagani Zonda Cinque Roadster: £1.2m

top speed: 217mph
Pagani's beautifully crafted Zonda Cinque Roadster is a gorgeous thing, but then so it should be at over £1.2m.

6 - Ferrari 599XX: £1.2m

196mph

This Ferrari is so special you can't drive it on the road, though it features all of the company's technical knowhow.

7 - Lamborghini Reventón Roadster: £1m

top speed: 205mph

Tiny number production run for this big money Lamborghini Roadster.

8 - Maybach Landaulet: £800,000

top speed: 155mph (limited) chickensh*t

Maybach range topper costs silly money and makes you look ridiculous - money really can't buy taste.

9 - SSC Ultimate Aero: £400,000

top speed: 257mph (the King- what a way to die)
The world's fastest production car is relatively inexpensive in this company and relatively unknown.

10 - Tramontana R-Edition: £360,000

top speed: 202 mph

Weird, wonderful and very expensive. One for those wanting something completely different.

------- end of story

See my previous story about the stupidity of top speed, dick-wagging.

It's amazing how the production of these cars is expanding. A new company comes out every couple of months. The recession has no effect on this market. That's because the rich already have all the money. These boutique manufacturers are trying to separate the rich from some of their money.
