Well Mumbai's boundaries are full of sea. I don't stay very near to sea. But Mumbai is considered as the most hot and humid.

10 most expensive cars to own and drive

http://finance.yahoo.com/family-home/article/107546/10-most-expensive-cars-to-own-and-drive;_ylt=Arh6ZHLOKuOfz07gHVjFLCd0fNdF?mod=family-autos

1. Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG Black Series

Starting price: $301,750

5-year total: $364,471

Cost per mile: $4.86

What pushes the Black Series up the price ladder from the SL65 AMG is the wide use of carbon-fiber body parts and some under-the-hood enhancements. Its 670-horsepower, 6-liter twin-turbo V-12 slingshots this two-seater to 60 miles per hour in less than four seconds. It's also loaded to the gills with high-tech standard equipment.

2. Mercedes-Benz S65 AMG

Starting price: $202,825

5-year total: $244,363

Cost per mile: $3.26

Capable of reaching 60 miles per hour from a standstill in just over four seconds, the S65 AMG combines opulent interior appointments with outrageously aggressive performance. It uses the same 6-liter twin-turbo V-12 found in other high-end Mercedes models but in this application it develops 604 horsepower.

3. Mercedes-Benz CL65 AMG

Starting price: $205,575

5-year total: $230,771

Cost per mile: $3.08

A strikingly handsome coupe, the CL65 AMG is more than a pretty face. Its 604-horsepower, 6-liter twin-turbo V-12 is capable of going from zero to 60 in just over four seconds. Standard gear includes a rearview camera and nighttime vision assist.

4. Audi R8

Starting price: $126,400

5-year total: $159,753

Cost per mile: $2.13

if your goal is to get noticed, there is no surer way to do it than behind the wheel of Audi's R8. Sleek, fast and decadent, the R8 uses a mid-mounted 420-horsepower 4.2-liter V-8 to turn all four wheels. It can dash from zero to 60 in just over four seconds. Sure it's expensive, but it is arguably the most accessible exotic on the market.

5. Porsche 911 Convertible Turbo

Starting price: $141,650

5-year total: $159,393

Cost per mile: $2.13

With an extra-cost options list as long as your arm, this two-seat drop-top offers an array of customizing choices. A 480-horsepower, 3.6-liter twin-turbo flat six-cylinder engine funnels output to all four wheels through a six-speed manual transmission. It gets to 60 miles per hour in less than four seconds.

6. Audi A8 L W12

Starting price: $122,625

5-year total: $153,588

Cost per mile: $2.05

The "L" in its name refers to this luxury sedan's stretched wheelbase, while the "W12" indicates it packs the potent 450-horsepower, 6-liter, W-12 engine under its hood. Fewer than six ticks of the clock are needed for the A8 L W12 to reach 60 miles per hour. Among its standard features are massaging front seats and four-zone automatic climate control.

7. Chevrolet Corvette ZR1

Starting price: $106,620

5-year total: $146,096

Cost per mile: $1.95

The Zeus of 'Vettes, the ZR1 is a supercar by any measure. Motivating it to a zero to 60 time of just over three seconds is a 638-horsepower supercharged 6.2-liter, V-8. Although it doesn't possess the amount of high-end bric-a-brac many of the other entries on this list do, pound for pound and dollar for dollar it may just be the best sports car in the world.

8. Porsche Cayenne Turbo S

Starting price: $125,775

5-year total: $138,613

Cost per mile: $1.85

The only SUV on this list, the Cayenne Turbo S packs Porsche performance into an off-road-capable all-wheel-drive uber package. Turning all four wheels is a 550-horsepower, 4.8-liter, twin-turbo V-8. Reaching 60 miles per hour from a stop takes a hair less than five seconds. A 14-speaker surround-sound audio system and a hard-drive-based navigation system are standard.

9. BMW M6 Convertible

Starting price: $111,725

5-year total: $138,186

Cost per mile: $1.84

The high-performance version of the 6 Series, the M6 is fitted with a 500-horsepower 5-liter, V-10, providing this soft-top with zero to 60 sprints of less than five seconds. A 13-speaker Harman Kardon surround-sound audio system and adaptive xenon headlights are standard.

10. Mercedes-Benz CLS63 AMG

Starting price: $99,775

5-year total: $137,749

Cost per mile: $1.84

No sedan better captures the sleek flow of a coupe's styling than the Mercedes-Benz CLS. In its hopped-up guise as the CLS63 AMG, it complements its drop-dead curb appeal with an asphalt-chomping 507-horsepower, 6.2-liter, V-8 engine. Reaching 60 miles per hour requires just a bit more than four seconds with a top speed of more than 180 miles per hour.

My SAAB 9-5

Bought £1250 + insurance £440 + service $220 after a month- just about £0.. (engine kaput!) :lol:

Thus would work out to 1970/30= £65.66 P/Day

duuhhh

Duhh? Okay well just got the news on it..

The picture I have is not the Gina..either..but that car was a different approach. There are also two designers I believe originating from Finland who have also embraced the fabric design approach...

The first car that was like a normal car..looks like a Mid-engined supercar, it was white.. came after the remake of the 1976 M-something..earlier this year... but it was never released or hasn't been to this point..wasn't quite as elaborate as the red one I posted earlier on a few pages back now..I had a pic of it somewhere..

but yeah.. if I could afford one of these.. would have to be where I could walk in a write a check .. buy it outright... get the middleman out of my pocket... ( which is harder than you think ) as a second car.. or part of a collection.. I mean I share Leno's passion for the American Dream..LOL.. and I might even start to modify the vehicle to its potential, maybe.. depends on it purpose..BUT worry about how much a mile, probably not. Now if I buy a lemon that has to be in the shop every week/month..You guess who is going to the hospital to have a very highly engineered piece of Italia removed from their a-hole...That would just defeat the whole purpose of even purchasing something of this nature.. work on it more than you drive it.. what is this.. a hot rod shop...take it out.. bring it back work on it some more.. money just flowing into the supercharger .. like air..

I has a passionate desire to own a Mercedes SLR McLaren.. full mod to a little over 800 HP.. but now it has been dropped and is gone.. base price.. $500,000... upgrade package start price $100,000 ( not even rims included ).. The car actually comes with about 600HP..so upgrades were extensive... suspension, exhaust.. so on.. to be honest I don't really like the new design but they are staying true to historic form... going completely topless..The new SLS however is an electric drive train and is supposed to be as exciting to drive.. we will just have to wait and see..

You know you make an excellent point.. I had rather have a home paid for, instead of living in my Benz..LOL

But then again.. what the hell! .. :w00t:

but the house I wanted well lets just say I could probably buy a third world country for the price...

I have a taste for very nice things.. like most.. but I say that sometimes staying with what you know is best. Holding on to what you know and what you got.. It can all come down at the wrong time, with the right timing.. and tomorrow you could be eating out of a dumpster, with all of the other Hollywood waitress/act-or/tress. You never really know sometimes where its going to go sickening wrong...even with doing it all the right way..

All of these things are dreams for most, and for most.. they are only renting it.. For me to do something like this.. It would be an extra thing for me...something that came after all of the rest, and IF things stayed good, then I might purchase other things as well.. but yeah..Technically I could never really enjoy the limits of the car unless I had a track near by anyway.. and one that would appeal to the design aspects and specs of the car anyway.. I mean I would ave to be rolling in it to have it as a daily driver..( Probably to live in the right area in the right condo too.. )
