This is not the domain of America's best-selling car,
the Toyota Camry. Other high-volume cars like the Honda Accord and
Honda Civic or Hyundai Sonata and Hyundai Elantra, or even the BMW
3-Series for that matter, won't be priced in this neighbourhood until a
few decades of inflation have had their way. No, this is where
ultra-premium badges come to play. Fighting above their weight class are
a few simpletons from the luxury crowd: Mercedes-Benz, BMW, and.... pfft,
Porsche. For the most part, automakers represented in the group below
are avid promoters of largesse and excess; hedonism and epicureanism;
indulgence and opulence.
Two specific cars have been left off this list of the Top 10 Most Expensive Sedans In The World for obvious reasons. The Maybach Landaulet, with its estimated MSRP of $1,380,000, won't be purchased by any sane self-respecting person. It's that ugly. Meanwhile, the Bugatti Galibier 16C, although gorgeous and terribly expensive (likely $1,470,000) is a mite too far from the Marketplace to be included with this bunch of current or near-Future automobiles.
Don't
forget about the 5-door capability of two cars in the group below.
Perhaps you won't walk in to the country club proclaiming the majesty of
your new hatchback, but it's a unique trait nonetheless, one that makes
it hard to include the two vehicles in this sedan/saloon list. All
prices are in U.S. dollars. Scroll all the way down for the Gallery slideshow.
