$1,000,000 for the Car(s) of your Choice!

Imagine that you are given $1,000,000 to buy the car(s) of your choice. What car(s) would you purchase equal to $1,000,000. Please list car(s) pricing and total it up.

Now here is the Catch there can only be -
1 sedan
1 coupe
1 convertible
1 suv
1 crossover
1 truck

and must equal $1,000,000 (no less then $900,000)

Example:

1. Bentley Arnage T = $250,000

2. Mercedes-Benz CL 65 = $200,000

3. Rolls Royce Drophead = $400,000 (est)

4. Mercedes-Benz GL 550 = $70,000 (est)

5. Infiniti FX45 = $50,000

6. Honda Ridgeline = $30,000


$250,000 + $200,000 + $400,000 + $70,000 + $50,000 +$30,000 = $1,000,000

If you estimate price please try to be close to the number as possible.

Now if you pick the Bugatti...thats it.

Have fun.....

Re: $1,000,000 for the Car(s) of your Choice!

USD 1 million = SGD 1.5 million. I'll work with the pricing I have in Singapore...

Audi RS4 - 330k
Range Rover Sport Supercharged - 420k
Golf GTI - 120k
CL63 AMG - 600k (est.)

30k spare for taxes, petrol and whatever.

Re: $1,000,000 for the Car(s) of your Choice!

I'm taking the liberty of spending €1,000,000 to avoid converting prices back and forth but the Finnish prices I'll use more than compensate for that. I'm limiting myself to cars that currently have a list price in this country.

Audi S8

€165,500 + €42,300 optional extras = €207,800

Ferrari 599GTB F1

€338,400

Mercedes SL55 AMG

€215,500 + €55,000 optional extras (including performance package) = €270,500

Mercedes GL 420 CDI

€127,000 + €34,680 optional extras = €161,680

€207,800 + €338,400 + €270,500 + €161,680 = €978,380
