9. Maybach 62 – $385,250

Maybach 62 features a 12 Cylinder, SOHC, 5.5 liter engine that can produce 543 horse power.
62 is an ultra-luxury sedan (made by Mercedes-Benz), which shockingly proves, that even such expensive cars to build, can turn into profit for car-makers.
Due to the fact that we list U.S. prices, Maybach 62 took 9th place. However the European version of Maybach 62 is more expensive than SLR McLaren (7th place) in Europe, while the retail price of U.S. version of the SLR is higher than any Maybach. It may have been more interesting not to include two such similar models from the same manufacturer, but we have decided to stick with the official Forbes list of the most expensive cars.
8. Porsche Carrera GT – $440,000

Engine: V-10, DOHC 5.7 liter. Its ten-cylinder engine produces 600hp – the type of power that can rarely be seen outside the racing world.
Although some well known auto portals claim that Porsche has stopped selling its Carrera GT supercar. But currently (2006 Dec), Porsche confirms that its $440,000 famous convertible is still available for sale in the U.S. market, thus the car qualifies to be in this list.
Made in Germany.
7. Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren – $452,750

5. Saleen S7 Twin-Turbo – $555,000

The Saleen S7 uses a 7 liter 750 HP V-8 engine. It is capable of accelerating from 0 to 60 mph in 2.8 seconds.
Saleen's S7 Twin Turbo has fallen to the 5th place from last years first spot in most expensive car list. Mainly because all four nameplates ahead of it are new. However, the S7 still remains to be one of the more recognizable supercars on the list.
Made in U.S.
