We all know that there are cars and then there are “cars”.

We use cars to drive our kids to school, we use them for usual matters such as picking up groceries and so on, mostly for doing errands. They’re utilitarian, reliable and in most cases, they’re relatively boring too.

But we’re not here to talk about the everyday car. We’re here to talk about the cars that reach a certain type of beauty, about the ones which are the  border between masterpiece and high levels of engineering, the ones that scream luxury on the outside while being a perfect compound of mechanism on the inside.

To reach this level of greatness, some individual or some company was there to ask these big questions “How much faster can we make this?” , “ How much better can we make it?”. Every era of automotive history has its legends. They have names like Bentley, Bugatti and Ferrari.

Due to the fact that most of them were made in limited numbers, many were lost in history, but thankfully a handful are still around. They manage to wow the crowd by breaking speed records while being fabulous.

Without further ado, here is out top 10 list of the Most Expensive Classic Cars in the world!
