The most expensive cars in the world in 2023 all boast slick, sporty designs with six out of the ten most pricey cars in the world being Bugattis: the La Voiture Noire, Divo, Bolide, Chiron Super Sport 300+, Chiron Pur Sport, and Centodieci.

The cheapest of these cars costs more than $3.5 million. And it only goes up from there. The Bugatti Bolide is almost $5 million and the Bugatti La Voiture Noire is $14 million. But the most expensive car on this list – the Rolls-Royce Boat Tail – dwarfs them all at about $31 million.

While most of us can only dream of owning one of these high-end vehicles, there are a lucky few who can actually afford to drop millions of dollars on a single ride. And it’s not just wealthy business tycoons who can buy them, but also famous celebrities who love to show off their lavish lifestyles.

From Bugattis to Aston Martins, these top-of-the-line cars are not only fast and powerful but also works of art. So, which celebs have the most expensive cars?
