1998 McLaren F1 – $13,750,000
The McLaren F1 is a car that needs no introduction, yet its significance to the history of the automobile in general warrants a brief overview.
It was built and designed on a blank sheet of paper by a team led by Gordon Murray and Ron Dennis, who were looking to make zero compromises in the pursuit of automotive perfection.
