The most expensive car in the world

You might think that a 400 000$ Rolls-Royce is expensive for a simple car. Your perception of the mentioned price is going to change completely when you find out what the price of the 1963 Ferrari 250 GTO is. The sought-after collection car has been sold recently to an unidentified buyer for a staggering 52 000 000$! This particular car, called chassis #5111, is especially expensive since it has won the 1963 Tour de France race. The Ferrari had then been bought and restored only to be resold a long time after. The original GTOs featured a 3.0 liter V12 capable of producing 300 hp. These exclusive cars have been manufactured just to win races. Now, you must be wondering why such a simple and old car could be worth more than the most expensive house in your neighbourhood. The reason is that the Ferrari 250 GTO has been voted to be the car that represents Ferrari the best. Since the first of this car sold, prices have been going up at an alarming level. Even replicas of the car are reported to have been sold at the same price as a real one. This though, evidently, isn't supposed to happen.

The fastest car in the world

When you think about speed, the first car you might have in mind is the famous Bugatti Veyron. At approximately 269 mph, you are right about it not being slow. On the other hand, there's a car in the Veyron's territory. The american car company, Hennessey, have built the new fastest production car in the world: the Hennessey Venom GT. Although it beat the Bugatti by a mere 1 mph, stats are stats! Approximately 270 mph on a straight line! Its full estimated top speed is 278 mph, 0-60 mph (100 km/h) in only 2.7 seconds and all this thanks to a 1244 hp V8 powerhouse engine. Although the Venom beat the previous record-holder by 1 mph, the Veyron is still the champion in the Guinness book of World Records because there must be at least 30 cars in the market, and the top speed must be an average of the speeds achieved during 2 tries. Unfortunately, the Hennessey only had one run and only 29 of them are produced. Anyway, here is the video of the actual 270 mph run of the Venom!

Rumors of Ferrari LaFerrari Spyder and FXX

As you all probably know, the exotic Italian car company, Ferrari, have released a new version of the beloved Enzo, the LaFerrari, a while back. Although this car is very appreciated by fans, a track-only version of the supercar is still in demand. Rumor has it that a Spyder LaFerrari, along with an FXX version, could be expected in 2015. This could very well be good news for the race enthusiasts Ferrari must please. Even though the Spyder is yet to be spotted, the FXX prototype has been spotted doing high-speed laps on the Nurburgring. Lastly, just like the original Enzo, the LaFerrari Spyder and FXX will only be offered to Ferrari's top potential buyers, people that Ferrari believe to be respected enough to own such an exquisite automobile.
