20 Wallet-Busting Cars That Only Absurdly Rich People Can Afford


Only Held By A Few

Imagine being so exclusive billionaires have to book you in advance. They also give the manufacturer descriptions to put on you. You are a multi-billionaire’s car, and here are 20 more cars that only billionaires get to own and drive in. But first….

Busting Cars

Let’s Define Automotive Exclusivity

What sets exclusive cars apart? Simply put, it combines unparalleled craftsmanship, advanced engineering, and sheer scarcity. These vehicles adorn bespoke interiors, groundbreaking technology, and often a custom-made touch. Think limited editions, celebrity ownership, or one-off designs. Exclusivity begins where the ordinary ends, marking a league of its own.

The Price Of Entry

To earn the “exclusive” badge, a car must surpass the $1 million mark. At this price, it’s not just about luxury but innovation and heritage. Every element justifies the steep price, from rare materials to meticulous attention to detail. Exclusivity isn’t cheap, and it shows.

Scarcity Meets Demand

Exclusivity thrives on rarity. Cars with limited production runs, often under 100 units, are highly coveted. Pair this with iconic branding; you’ve got a collector’s dream. High demand and low supply turn these cars into investments—treasures on wheels that only the elite can honestly claim.

Elon Musk’s Tesla Roadster, valued at $250,000, and the Sultan of Brunei’s rare Ferrari F50 also stand out.
