A car is not just a mode of conveyance, but also a piece of art cherished, often decades after its production. Big names like Lamborghini, Aston Martin and of course, Rolls Royce often come at very high prices and are only meant for rich collectors as many of them are often sold out before they reach the public. While most of the cars listed here are wildly out of the reach for most, it is a sheer pleasure just to look at them. However, it is often difficult to prepare such a list because the manufacturers often keep the price under the wraps and preserve them for potential customers only. And it so happens that when they end up in auctions, their prices are set way above the original. So here you go with the most expensive luxury cars of 2018 existing at present. Have fun reading!

RM Sotheby’s Monterey auction on August 18-19 of this year includes a chance to own one of the rarest Ferraris ever made – the 1950 Ferrari 166 MM/212 Export “Uovo” by Fontana. In the early history of Ferrari, late ’40s and early ’50s, some of their most important customers were the four Marzotto brothers (Vittorio, Giannino, Paolo and Umberto) who were all considerably talented racing drivers that plied their family fortune from the textile industry to racing pursuits. This particular Ferrari, the Uovo (which means “egg” in Italian), was created after an accident at the Mille Miglia when the Marzotto brothers wanted to improve the overall performance and aerodynamics with a streamlined body that would result in a design like no other. Visually, the Uovo is astonishing. The outrageous bodylines are thanks to the vision of sculptor Franco Reggiani and coachbuilder Carrozzeria Fontana. The car was created explicitly for use in competition, and to this end was designed with lightness and aerodynamics in mind. After Reggiani was finished, the curvaceous body and unique Duralumin alloy meant the car was roughly 330 pounds lighter than similar contemporary Ferraris. Eventually, the Ferrari ended up in the garage of its current owner around 1987 before being returned to its native Italy, displayed at Ferrari anniversary celebrations and peddled around the world for prestigious events – without ever taking center stage at a concourse event. “The Egg” is expected to bring over $5 million when the gavel drops at auction. Thought it is expensive enough it’s not the most expensive car in the world. Check our post to find out what is the most expensive car in the world.

Ferrari unveiled this Ferrari 458 MM Speciale, a one-of-a-kind creation built specifically for “an enthusiastic British owner.” Designed by the Ferrari Styling Center, this beauty comes finished in Bianco Italia with an Italian flag striping, custom wheels, modified lights and more aggressive sporting lines. Inside, is an improved audio system and Cioccolato leather with white stitching. A 288 GTO-style single glass surface effect for the cockpit was achieved by painting the A-pillar black. The body was reworked in aluminium with a new front end to accommodate redesigned radiators. Composite carbonfibre bumpers incorporate new aerodynamics with additional side intakes to enhance engine cooling, a new rear spoiler and substantially altered lighting front and rear. The bespoke wheels will only be seen on this car, which is painted in Bianco Italia with striping to honour the Italian flag. Inside there’s Cioccolato leather upholstery, an upgraded music system and satin white rings around the centre console controls. The 458 MM Speciale was presented to its new owner at Ferrari’s Fiorano test track, where it was warmed up a little by Ferrari’s chief test driver Dario Benuzzi.

Here are 15 all-time classics, listed as a gift for your car enthusiastic soul. And don’t forget to check our previous post about 15 fastest cars in the world.

The legendary Italian auto-maker Ferrari will be showing its new 4 seater, the GTC4 Lusso, this March at the Geneva Auto Show, but has released some specs about the new car ahead of its debut. This sleek beast comes with a 680 horsepower, 6.3 liter V12 engine that can rocket you from complete standstill to 62 miles per hour in 3.1 seconds. While the GTC4 Lusso has the guts of a track car, it has all the control you need for it to safely handle on the road. Ferrari’s new model comes with all rear wheel steering for handling the car’s huge amount of torque on wet and snowy roads.

Ferrari is always look to future for their next series of supercars. To keep the conversation going, the Italian carmaker enlisted top design school from around the world to submit models to see what Ferrari’s of 2040 would look like. The jury was comprised of designers, engineers, drivers and collectors: Nicola Boari, Franco Cimiate, Aldo Colonnati, Rodolfo Raffino Rossi, Jay Kay, Flavio Manzoni, Nick Mason, Andrea Militello, Paolo Pininfarina and Sebastian Vettel. Their decision was unanimous, and the prize was awarded to the ‘Manifesto” – a design by six students from the ISD-rubika in Valenciennes, France by frenchmen Michael Barthly, Grimaud Gervex and Jean Baptiste Epinat, and belgians Michael Kalyvianakis, Stanislas Oleksiak, and William Stock. The jury was won over by the completeness of the concept design as well as the students’ ability to create a coherent overall vision of the car spanning its exterior, cabin and running gear. The door opening mechanism also highlights the evolution of the interior functions, using future-forward technologies. The exterior is instantly recognizable despite the fact that it incorporates certain orthodox features.

Pininfarina is an Italian design studio who have in the past have helped design some of the most iconic Ferrari’s around, along with other companies. Recently it would seem that they have decided to try their hand at something new – tractors. This is the Zetor tractor as designed by Pininfarina. Tt isn’t an actual vehicle for sale, but rather a concept that the company will be showing off at the Agritechnica trade show which will be taking place in Hannover, Germany. The design will also celebrate Zetor Tractors’ 70 years of operations. According to a Zetor spokesperson, “We assume that the new Zetor by Pininfarina design will be adopted in all the series of Zetor tractors.”

Ferrari reveals the “F12 TdF” which pays homage to the Tour de France, the endurance road race that they dominated in the 1950s and 60s, particularly with the 1956 250 GT Berlinetta which won four consecutive editions. The special edition is limited to just 799 examples worldwide. As expected, more power has been extracted from the F12’s 6.3-liter V-12 for the new special edition. Ferrari quotes an output of 780 metric horsepower, which for the United States translates to 770 hp. Peak torque, meanwhile, registers at 520 pound-feet. Even a cursory glance will tell you the F12 tdf looks radically different to the F12 Berlinetta. That’s because the special edition benefits from a wider track and an assortment of aerodynamic aids that help boost downforce. Ferrari says the F12 tdf produces 507 lbs of downforce at 124 mph, almost double what the F12 Berlinetta is producing. The engineers have also installed a new rear-wheel-steering system that Ferrari calls the Virtual Short Wheelbase. It is integrated with the other vehicle dynamic control systems that help with cornering while also increasing stability at high speed. The 0-62 mph time is just 2.9 seconds and the top speed is in excess of 211 mph.

Italian designer Adriano Raeli has designed a new and really remarkable concept of the Supercar Ferrari F80. Powerful and pretty in the same time this concept is amazing. With 1,200 horsepower would come from this Prancing Pony, giving it a 0-62 mph time of only 2.2 seconds, and a jaw-dropping top speed of 310 mph. The striking vehicle is powered by a hybrid drivetrain that pairs a KERS system. Raeli replaced the iconic V12 with a 900 horsepower twin-turbo V8 setup (paired with the 300 horsepower KERS system). Check out this stunning design below in the pictures and enjoy!

Ferrari have presented their latest masterpiece, the California T. The beautiful topless grand tourer will be officially presented in Geneva and will surely steal the show. It comes equipped with an 8-cylinder 3.9L turbo engine delivering an impressive 560 hp and 557 pound-feet of torque, and is capable of sprinting from 0-62 miles per hour in a mere 3.6 seconds. The hardtop retracts in only 14 seconds, quickly transforming the stylish coupé into a sleek sophisticated spider.

With the recent unveiling of the Ferrari’s “LaFerrari” at the Geneva Motor Show, the pressure was on for Hublot to deliver something just as exceptional and the MP-05 LaFerrari watch is the result. Looking like a miniature engine strapped to the wrist, the limited edition timepiece is priced at a cool 300,000 Swiss francs, or about $322,000. The MP-05 “LaFerrari” was developed – in technical and design terms – entirely in parallel with the car, alongside the Ferrari teams. They share a number of common points. Able to boast no fewer than 637 components for the movement, which is also equipped with a Tourbillon, as well as a power reserve of approximately 50 days thanks to its 11 barrels, arranged in a line just like a spinal column and interconnected so that they do not each discharge in turn but support each other, this watch is closer to being a concept watch.

At the upcoming Geneva Motor Show the Italian super car maker Ferrari will show its newest Ferrari F12 Berlinetta, which will replace the aging 599 GTB Fiorano in Ferrari’s lineup. The new F12 Berlinetta approaches speeds of up to 211 miles per hour on the open road. From a standing start it can hit 60 mph in just 3.1 seconds. Ferrari holds the F12 Berlinetta is the fastest, most powerful road car it’s ever built. The Enzo’s and the 599 GTO’s of the world can’t compete with this one, it is officially the Ferrari flagship.
