Let me show you what are the world’s top 10 most expensive cars in 2006, which only the super-rich can drive. These world’s 10 most expensive cars, include such dreams-come-true as a street-legal, ten-cylinder Porsche race car (the Carrera GT); an electric car with a 300-hp motor (Venturi’s Fetish sports car) and cars with over 1,000 hp each (Bugatti’s Veyron 16.4 and SSC’s Ultimate Aero).

These kinds of cars make Ferraris and Aston Martins look like relative bargains, despite their fame, they are much cheaper than the cars on the list.

I need to point out that I am not plucking these expensive figures from the sky; but they are from the Forbes. Anyway, let me present you the 10 most expensive cars list now.
