Is your Audi A8 just getting a bit too common at the country club? Or the Porsche Carrera GT just lost that richness when your heir thought it too plain? Business Week lists several other automakers who may have the exclusiveness you’re looking for.
Lamborghini and Ferrari have released their Murcielago LP640 and 599 GTB Fiorano respectively. While both are relatively inexpensive, especially compared to the Porsche, their stunning sheetmetals, interiors, and V12s that deliver over 600 horsepower show that refinement can still be powerful.
Don’t disregard the British. Though both Aston Martin and Bentley are owned by foreign automakers, the DB9 Volante and the Continental GTC show don’t reflect their owners plebian hands.
Finally, Maserati, Morgan, and Rolls-Royce offer old world style and elegance for those with $500,000 to spend on that weekend ride.
