Sometimes money speaks volume about the merit of a product, such as in the case of cars. Supercarworld.com compiles a list of the top 10 most expensive new cars in the world and let's take a look at what make them so pricey.

   MB Roadcars MBR V8 (￡399500)

Originally introduced as the EOS concept, the MB Roadcars MBR V8 is the production ready version of this lightweight F1 inspired supercar.

Drawing on the F1 experience of the MB Roadcars development team, the MBR V8 will offer race car dynamics for the road through a race spec engine with a 10,000rpm redline, lightweight composite chassis and race bred suspension. A power to weight ratio of nearly 600bhp/ton ensures shattering performance with 60mph arriving from rest in a McLaren equalling 3.2sec (in fact the MBR draws it's 3 seat abreast layout from that legendary supercar).

All this technology doesn't come cheap though. It will cost you ￡400k to get hold of the MBR, pitching it in well into Zonda, Enzo and SLR territory.
