The other day I was cruising on the highway and saw this unusual vehicle on the same stretch of road... At first I thought it was a late model Corvette but it was waaaay lower and wider. I got within two car lengths and the driver punched the go pedal. The exhaust sounded amazing and he walked away from traffic on the highway like we were all standing still. I lost him and exited the highway only to catch him at a light and finally had a chance to see what it was.

The car?

Koenigsegg Regera

I saw a late model Rolls-Royce Phantom when I made a trip to the hardware store the other day. It drove by while I was putting supplies in my truck, and it was quieter than a Prius. $417k.

Had a McLaren go past me yesterday, not sure what model but the thing looked new and was a weird orange color with black trim and secondary coloring. The tail lights looked weird to, I am sure it cost a pretty penny and felt a little out of place even for Little Rock :p

I saw one of these on my morning commute in Alpharetta, GA a couple of months ago. There's a dealership just around the corner from where I work, along with a Lambo/Ferrari dealership, etc. Lots of that kind of luxury stuff in that area. Consequently, I've also driven alongside a Lambo Huracan, and there's a Ferrari California in our parking deck every morning.

I think I have driven the most expensive car when I was driving a Porsche 918. At around $1.6 million it trumped the last most expensive car I had driven which was the Carrera GT which is about $600k at the time.

I have seen a lot more valuable cars but not on the road.

Most expensive new car, a Lambo lp700-4.. like 4-5 years ago.. put an exhaust on it for the guy and drove it back to his house 30 miles away. 425k with 5k paint option.. something like that.

Most expensive car based on value.. Same guy had a ferrari f40 we built.. drove it many times the months we had it. Ended up selling it before we finished for 1.2 Million

Have driven a Jaguar F-type R (V8) that my brother currently owns. Things is fast, but more like Mustang fast as its RWD. He has only let me ridden it about 4 times in his 3 years ofownership. :(

Gonna test drive a McLaren 570s that my cousin bought in this corona time. Dealer was supposedly giving huge incentives and he bought it for about 100k OTD. That's a killer deal to me...

Man... I feel poor. I drove a buddy's brand new 335i in... '07? Whatever was the first year they had them I do believe and I think it was something like $60-70k maybe at the time. That's probably the only car I've driven that was north of $50k.

I need to make new friends.

Pulled up next to a Veyron a couple years back. That's a car which...kinda stands out, you know? Hard to miss. I've also seen a number of obviously well-cared-for, not-inexpensive vintage Ferraris and the odd Lambo, but I'm not familiar enough with the market to have any idea which was the most expensive.

I was about to reply with a similar "man, I'm poor" comment. But then I re-read the thread title and I caught the word 'beside'. The question isn't about the most expensive car you've personally driven. Rather: what's the most expensive car you've seen on the road? "Beside" as in literally "next to". I'll bet you can do better than that 335i

Oh... misread it then.

...and, sadly, I might not be able to do much better. I’ve lived in military towns or in rural areas all my life... where tons of people are barely scraping by. I’ve walked by a few Vipers... GTRs... 911s. Those might of cracked $100k... but nothing like some of these cars.
