Deusenberg, Ferrari and Buggati are all fine automobiles, and all might logically hold the label as the World’s Most Expensive Car. However, the most expensive car in the world might not be the classic that readily comes to mind.

Deborah Stewart, Audi brand and sales manager at ITG, says “Given its features, the A8 Security is ‘reasonably priced.’ “
The Audi A8 Security sedan has “standard” features such as full-cage outer-body armour certified by the German Federal Police, run-flat tires, gas tank and battery armouring, double-mirror interior, emergency door; silky-soft power-adjustable leather seats, refrigerator, retractable rear-seat tables, heated wind screen, multi-zone climate controls, and a slate of other comfort features.
