I am talking about the new steam-driven 1884 De Dion, capable of 37 miles per hour on a straight. This star is the most highly valued one of 115 cars being offered by RM Auctions at Hershey on Oct. 6-7.

The bidding started at $500,000 and reached the record. RM didn’t identify the buyer. The previous owner is Texas-based collector John O’Quinn, who died in 2009.

The car was restored in the late 1980s by the U.K. veteran car enthusiast Tim Moore and he sold the vehicle in 2007.

Have a look at these curves they worse more than millions, they inspire and make people turn their heads and go crazy. It is not exactly the car – it is a dream.

The Buick was restored by Dave Crouse for the 2010 Concours d’Elegance. Well done!

Actually, your dreams can come true only if you have something like $2 million. Yeah! That’s right! We are talking about the last available model of a really super car. What is more, tons of super rich people are dying to get it. Because of this its initial price of $1.4 million is very close to $2 million now.

As to its technical specs, the only one thing I would like to mention top speed is still 340km/h.

Fist of all, pay attention, I will enlist them, not from the point of view of their importance and rank. It is just a narration.

1. Let’s start with: 2003 Mini Cooper S

   I am sure, you remember, it is one of the Madonna’s favourite cars. More than 40 years of production, extreme popularity, millions of fans… What is the recipe of such a success? It offers not only: safety, comfort, advanced functions, durability and reliability while driving, it has a competitive price and really bright appearance. Driving a Mini – you have a status of independent person, possessing your own opinion. Also, these incredible stripes … They are so cute… This car will always be popular. Don’t you think so?

   

2. 1964 Aston Martin DB5, (Known to the publicity as “Goldfinger”)I suppose, most of you, have recognized it? Right you are – James Bond car. There are a lot of movies about James Bond and there were a lot of cars used there, but, in people’s minds Aston Martin DB5 always will be the car of Bond and Bond is, of course, Sean Connery. All Bond cars are posh, expensive and bright, but, unfortunately, none of them, has made such a stir, as Aston made. This car is not just as a beautiful image, it is a powerful one: engine – 4.0 L, top speed – 230 km/h and it weighs 1565 kg.

   

3. 1981 DeLorean DMC-12, (of course, it was seen in “Back to the Future”)It was a hybrid – a rear thing for those times, possessed 5-speed manual transmission, gull-wing doors… The main peculiarity – it is not just a car – it is a plane as well. It can both fly and ride at a very high speed. This car is not so beautiful and authoritative as the first two, but we adore dreaming and actually, why not? Moreover, we have to say “thank you” to the manufacturer, because it was the only one car produced by the company De Lorean. Its prototype was ready in 1977 and the production stopped in 1982. It looks a little bit strange, and even ugly, and still reminds a guest from the far planet. There was made only 9 000 thousands of these cars and 6 500 are still believed to be alive. You can try to find one!

   

4. 1961 Ferrari 250 GT, (it was a star of the famous “Ferris Bueller’s Day Off”)Ferrari, of course, no list can be full without this name. Red Ferrari with convertible roof, to tell the truth, it always was and will be one of the most expensive and authoritative cars. This movie has completely changed the youth attitude to life, since the release of this movie, millions of teens started driving their fathers cars. Oh, I have almost forgotten to mention – this car is so fast… Hold tight!

   

5. 1968 Ford Mustang GT 390, (it was specially designed fo the movie “Bullitt”)Pay attention, a 7-minute scene made this car popular and cooler than Dodge Charger. Chase while driving this car is one of the most memorable among the whole movie chases.
