The above 10 are the most expensive production cars in the world whose price is decided by the company as soon as they come out of the production line. But there are some good old classic cars which touched a mark of $30Million in some auctions.So, lets take a look at some of those classic babes

A 1954 Mercedes-Benz race car sold for a record $30 million at an auction in England Friday.
While collectible cars have been sold privately for more, this is the highest price ever paid for a car at a public auction.
The Mercedes W196R Formula 1 race car, powered by a 2.5-liter 8-cylinder engine, was one of a group of race cars that won 9 World Championship-qualifying Grand Prix races in 1954 and '55.
This car, in particular, won two of those races. It was driven by legendary Argentinian-born driver Juan Manuel Fangio and is the only W196 race car not currently housed in a museum or owned by Mercedes-Benz.
Part of the car's ultra-high value had to do with its largely original, unrestored condition. These days car collectors prefer to buy automobiles that haven't been cleaned and repaired to look new.
Astonishing right.Well there is a saying "old is gold" .The more dirty it is the more expensive it is.
