The 1931 Bugatti Royale Kellner Coupe is the most expensive
car ever made. The car was sold for $8.7 million.
Ettore
Bugatti had dreams of building the biggest, most luxurious car
ever made and selling it to kings and queens around the world.
Royal customers balked at spending what Bugatti was charging, and
so only six of the cars were built, and only three sold.
This fifteen foot Bugatti Royale powered by Its huge 12.7-litre
engine that was originally meant for use in aircraft is one of the
largest ever fitted into a car. Bodied by Paris coachbuilder
Kellner, this car was bricked into Bugatti’s French garage to hide
it from the Nazis.
