39: Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren AMG – Starting Price: $500,000

Another interesting exotic that goes back to F1 racing heritage is the SLR McLaren AMG. The McLaren name is often associated with Mercedes and this limited edition model was the pinnacle of that design. With smooth lines and a powerful engine, this is one of the most daunting Mercedes-Benz models on the road.

The razor-sharp styling hits like a dagger and looks familiar to other Benz models from this period. The high price tag means that only the elite can afford to drive this thing, and of course Jay Leno.

38: Saleen S7 – Starting Price: $589,950

Saleen is a well-known performance house in the world of sports cars. You’ve probably seen the Saleen Mustang and F-150, and there are more models than that. The S7 is the first American-built exotic that can rival the best from around the world. With simplistic styling, this sports car still means business.

In fact, in a lot of places, it’s not even legal to drive the S7 on regular roads. The design of the car and the intense speed have made the S7 the stuff of legends in recent years.

37: Enzo Ferrari – Starting Price: $659,330

Few cars have had the spectacular rise and fall that the Ferrari Enzo did. With a series of high-profile celebrity crashes the Enzo was known for being over the top. The V12 engine is one of the best that Ferrari has ever made. The car was designed after the founder’s namesake and held up to that rarity.

There are few of these on the open market and they tend to fetch a pretty penny when sold at auction. With the intriguing design and history, the Enzo has become permanently cemented in pop culture.

36: SSC Ultimate Aero – Starting Price: $740,000

If you’ve never seen the SSC Ultimate Aero you are missing out. The car got the Guinness Book of World Records title for the fastest production car. Aside from that, styling is among the most controversial for the exotic car industry. The SSC Ultimate Aero has polarizing styling and a powerful engine that makes it stand out from the crowd.

Aside from that the SSC Ultimate Aero also has a notable addition of high-quality paint schemes. Few exotics on the market right now look as distinct as the SSC Ultimate Aero does from a design perspective.

35: Porsche 918 Spyder – Starting Price: $847,975

Porsche is a company that’s the backbone of the performance car business. Porsche has had its fair share of supercars in the day. The 918 Spyder is most notable for the string of accidents that accompanied it during its initial run. Performance is unmatched and the car is more suitable for F1 racing than actual street duties.

From a styling standpoint, the 918 Spyder is quintessential Porsche. With the familiar front scoop and the body panels to match. When it comes to styling, Porsche stays pretty consistent over the years.

34: The Rimac Concept One – Starting Price: $940,000

Electric sports cars are starting to prove that they can hold their own on the market. The Rimac Concept One is a stand-out car that offers a unique blend of comfort and styling. This was a concept car and it’s very expensive to get your hands on one.

Reaching 100 km/h in just 2.6 seconds ,the Rimac Concept One is no joke. Rivaling even the best exotic cars on the market today, the Rimac concept one shows that electric cars are here to stay.

33: Lagonda Taraf – Starting Price: $1 Million

Aston Martin is not particularly known for its sedans, but the company does build them from time to time. What we have here is a limited production model from 2015 dubbed the Lagonda Taraf. With a limited production run of only 150 cars, the Lagonda Taraf is rare to say the least.

But that doesn’t mean that it should be avoided. Because this is one of the best performance sedans on the market today. And it should be with its high price tag and cultivated styling.

32: Rolls Royce Phantom Serenity – Starting Price: $1.1 Million

Rolls Royce in general has been on a design marathon since the early 2000s. The Phantom Serenity is the pinnacle of everything that you’d come to expect from Rolls. Its high-class design coupled with the performance that’s truly groundbreaking for a car of this size and magnitude.

Did we mention the fact that it still comes with that expensive umbrella in the door frame? It’s the little features like this that separates Rolls Royce models from everything else on the market.

31: Lister Knobbly Stirling Moss – Starting Price: $1.24 Million

With a limited production run of 10 cars and the fact it debuted at the 2016 Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance, you know that the Lister Knobbly Stirling Moss is quite the rarity on the car circuit. With performance to match, this is a modern-day roadster with classic flare.

From a design standpoint, this car looks like one of those old-school Jaguar models, which might have been what the designers were going for.

<< Previous

NEXT >>

30: Apollo Arrow – Starting Price: $1.1 Million

Often called a fighter jet on wheels, the Apollo Arrow is a notable exception for the sports car arena. The swift design was extraordinary at the time, coupled with the high performance that the care offered.

And of course, there is a high price tag to match, which you’d expect with a car like this. The Apollo Arrow is quite rare in the world of high-performance cars.

29: Zenvo TS1 GT – Starting Price: $1.2 Million

From a design standpoint, few cars are as polarizing as the Zenvo TS1 GT. But that’s because the car was designed to intimidate you. With a 5.9-liter flat-plane V8 with 2 centrifugal superchargers, the Zenvo TS1 means business. Likewise, the design of the car is notable for stylistic choices that seem controversial to this day.

The interior is not the most comfortable and a lot of the car is still unrefined. But if you want raw speed and power, the TS1 GT is in a class of its own.

28: 2017 Mazzanti Evantra Millecavalli – Starting Price: $1.2 Million

Another new player to the supercar arena is Mazzanti. The familiar automaker has created a few notable exotics in its day, and the Millercavalli is one of them.

27: Hennessey Venom GT – Starting Price: $1.2 Million

The Venom GT is a standard-bearer for what it takes to be a high-performance exotic. The Venom GT has been around for a while now and the car just seems to get better with age. Its raw 2000s styling still holds true to this day and the low production cycle of 29 cars means it’s incredibly hard for drivers to get their hands on one.

It should also be noted that the Venom GT can reach 186 mph in 13.63 seconds. A fast feat for any exotic car, much less a high-performance model like this one.

26: McLaren P1 – Starting Price: $1.3 Million

Another McLaren on this list shouldn’t be a surprise because these are some of the best supercars on the road. The hybrid engine setup is only half of the new tech. There is a host of formula one technology that went into the design of this car. What that means is that the McLaren P1 is perhaps the most advanced exotic yet.

The twin-turbo 3.8-liter V8 engine will propel you to 0-60 in about 2.8 seconds. The styling looks like something out of a movie? The P1 is a superb exotic car with a hefty price tag.

25: Ferrari LaFerrari – Starting Price: $1.3 Million

Ferrari is always in some type of supercar development. The LaFerrari is perhaps one of the most iconic recent models. This is known as a hybrid hypercar and only a few of these were built. The LaFerrari was the first in-house design for the company in 40 years and the results were phenomenal.

The 6.3-liter V12 engine has a potent 789 horsepower with an additional boost of 161 horsepower from an electric motor. Not bad for a hybrid.

24: Maybach Landaulet – Starting Price: $1.38 Million

If you were around in the early 2000s, then you are more than familiar with the Maybach. It was the favorite of rap artists during this period. Already a mini-limousine in its own right, the Landaulet took things to a whole new level. With a luxurious interior and a more than elegant exterior, this car was everything that Maybach represented.

The Landaulet also had several firsts which included a retractable sunroof. From a performance standpoint, this massive sedan could move with authority. This isn’t your mother’s Suburban.

23: Pagani Huayra – Starting Price: $1.4 Million

Another hypercar worth noting is the Pagani Huayra. From a design standpoint, it was groundbreaking at the time in 2012 and was even featured in magazines. Performance-wise, the Huayra is one of the fastest supercars around.

You can’t get much better than this as the design of the car is simply beautiful. The twin-turbocharged, 6.0-liter V12 engine that produces 720-horsepower is among the best in the class.

22: Koenigsegg Agera S – Starting Price: $1.5 Million

It’s not very often that you see a Swedish supercar on the road, but automaker Koenigsegg wants to change that. The Agera S is a beautiful supercar that has a crazy amount of power packed under the hood. Coupled with a beautiful design, this car looks to be carved from the supercar gods.

The twin-turbo, 5.0-liter V8 engine can reach 62 miles per hour in a mere 2.9 seconds. This is a feat that even the fastest sports cars have never matched.

21: Koenigsegg Agera R – Starting Price: $1.6 Million

Another interesting model taking things a step further is the Agera R. Everything that made the first model great has been packed into this one. With a seven-speed dual-clutch, the Agera R means business on the track.

Few cars have managed to intimidate the Agera R, and that’s a good thing because this car is downright crazy to look at, much less drive.

20: Aston Martin One-77 – Starting Price: $1.87 Million

There were only 77 of them built and they’re getting harder to come by. The V12 engine packs 7.3-liters and 750 horsepower.

From a performance standpoint, the One-77 is a monster. But the fact that it’s so rare is also important to note.

19: Lamborghini Centenario LP 770-4 – Starting Price: $1.9 Million

Coupled with the high-end interior and exterior, you can tell that this car costs a pretty penny. The Centenario is on a long list of Lamborghini models that have pushed the envelope of design. Few exotic cars can compare to the sheer horsepower and speed that the LP 770-4 can deliver.

It should be of no surprise that we find the Koenigsegg Regera on the list. There is just something about this automaker that makes the exotic car market special. With a limited production run of just 80 vehicles, the Regera is deadly fast. Pushing out 1,489 horsepower and 1,475 lb-ft of torque to the wheels.

If you feel like driving a real-life race car this is how you do it. There aren’t a lot of sports cars that can match the Regera on the track.

17: Ferrari 599XX – Starting Price: $2 Million

Another Ferrari, how’d we know this was going to happen. Ferrari is a champion for high-performance supercars and the 599XX is a prime example. Take the cultivated exterior lines and styling for example, and then couple that with the 6.0-liter V12 engine that produces 720 horsepower.

The Ferrari 599XX is a prime example of what you want in a supercar. With beautiful styling and breakneck speed, the 599XX is by far one of the most impressive sports cars on the market.

16: Koenigsegg CCXR – Starting Price: $2.17 Million

Forbes awarded this car the 10 Most Beautiful Cars in history award in 2009. It’s with good reason because the CCXR still looks amazingly beautiful to this day.

Finding one of these is a rarity and you can expect to spend a pretty penny on it. However, the performance is well worth the price as the driving experience of the CCXR is unmatched.

15: Lamborghini Sesto Elemento – Starting Price: $2.2 Million

Automakers have been experimenting with carbon fiber forever, but Lamborghini took it a step further with the Sesto Elemento. The weight of just 999 kilograms (2,202 lb) made the car as light as some compacts. But with scary performance thanks to a 570-horsepower V10 engine, this was fast.

There aren’t a lot of cars that can match the Lamborghini Sesto Elemento in terms of speed or design. This might be why this car was so expensive and rare at the same time.
