If I have a lot of money...

I would want a sweet ride. However, I wouldn't get a Lamborghini or Ferrari. I'd rather get myself a Rolls Royce. Or maybe a vintage Jaguar Roadster.

 Rolls Royce Phantom Drophead Coupe

Imagine me driving that on the highway, the wind in my hair, the weather's just right and everybody's stunned by my blue body paint. Either blue or shimmery gold with shimmery silver on the front and rims. Yeah, I love gold. It brings out the "goddess" in you. Please, indulge in my dream.

But then, if you've got real deep pockets, these are some cars that you should seriously look out for. Here are the Top 10 Expensive Cars in the World 2010.

• Koenigsegg Trevita 2010 price is $2.21 Million

Koenigsegg is a Swedish brand. With only three cars produced, the name "Trevita" suits it very well because in Swedish it means "three whites".

• SSC Ultimate Aero 2010 price is $740,000

Shelby SuperCars company are the brainchildren of Jerod Shelby who started building exotic old replicas model of Ferrari and Lamborghini. They teamed up with Aero and built their Ultimate Aero which is the fastest production car in the world, with a recorded speed of 256 mph (411.99 km/h). It dethroned the long seated Bugatti Veyron and shocked the entire world. This baby can go from 0 – 60 in just 2.7 secs. It has a twin-turbo V8 Enginer and a mind blowing 1183 horse power. However, though this may be the fastest car in the world but it doesn’t have basic safety and control mechanism like ABS brakes and traction control. So, think very carefully before you buy this one.

Although the super cars above might be very interesting to some, but I think I'll still settle with a Rolls Royce (dreaming again). I don't need to spend so much on a car. The rest of my money I should use to heal the world instead. Nothing wrong in dreaming right?
