Launched in 2015, the Aston Martin Vulcan is a two-door, two-seat, high-performance lightweight track-only car. Only 24 were ever made, each costing a tidy $2.3 million. So what do you get for that amount of cash? In short, a ridiculously fast car that can reach 0-60 mph in less than 3.0 seconds and has a top speed of 200 mph. It also looks really good, which is an added bonus.

Pagani Automobili S.p.A., or just Pagani as it’s commonly referred to, is a luxurious carmaker from Italy that specializes in exclusive rides. Similar to the Koenigsegg Agera, the Pagani Huarya hit the number one spot on Top Gear’s ‘Hypercar of the Year 2012′ list.

Equipped with Pirelli tires, a 7-speed sequential gearbox, and Brembo brake calipers, rotors, and pads, the Pagani Huarya has a top speed of about 238 mph and can hit 0-60 mph in just 2.8 seconds.

Unveiled at the 2015 Geneva Motor Show, the Koenigsegg Agera RS is the follow-up to the Koenigsegg One:1. While the two cars look similar, the Agera RS’ updated 5.0-liter V8 engine churns out 1,160 hp while the electric engine provides 1,341 hp. Each customer who purchased an Agera RS had the ability to fully customize the car. Originally only 25 were commissioned, but two more were built, one as a factory development car and the other for a customer whose car was damaged during testing.
