Cars that millionaires drive come loaded with state-of-the-art gadgets and accessories; most of them being custom-built, tailor-made to the owners' specifications and are the envy of all.
Cars give these drivers a different high as some of these cars are so fancy and fast that they can touch more than 300 km per hour; some are so exclusive that finding them on a road is a near impossibility; and some are just exquisite works of art.
Mentioned below are some of the most expensive cars in the world though not all of them are available in India, but once they are as per Indian currencies the prices of the car would be much higher.
Here’s a look at the Top 5 expensive cars:

These cars are definitely built for power and speed! If I were to pick a car from all of these, I'd go for the Maybach Landaulet. I'm going for prestige over power. Cruising would be a lot nicer for me than speeding down the highway.
