Top 5 Most Expensive Motorcycles in the World

When riding a motorcycle, it’s a bit more relaxing and exhilarating but of course, it’s different when you start comparing it to a car. The feeling of riding an expensive motorcycle is different, too. For some, the pleasure of just even seeing an expensive motorcycle is somehow addictive. Collecting expensive or limited edition motorcycles is an intense hobby. Below, you’ll find the most expensive motorcycles in the word, enjoy.

Top speed:676 kilometer per hour (nearly 400 meter per hour)

No motorcycle can beat the Dodge Tomahawk since its engine is featured or is similar to Dodge Viper, the sports car made by the Dodge division of Chrysler. The uniqueness of the Dodge Tomahawk is also because it has two front and two rear wheels. Could this still be a motorcycle or a car?

Top 10 International Police Cars

Ever wondered how police cars look like in other countries? Well, let me tell you, they kick ass. You could see them for yourself. Try and see if you can run away with speeding from them, though the answer to that dear friend, would be no. Here are the Top ten International Police cars that have been upgraded to have some specs for a cooler and faster police car. Please take note that how these cars have been built and geared is strictly for law enforcement use only.

10. Carbon Motors E7 – United States of America

Photo by: carspyshots.net

Price: Has not yet been announced

Top Speed: 155 mph

The Carbon E7 is built to last 250,000 miles, compared with 75,000 to 120,000 miles for the typical patrol car. The seats are made especially for comfort while wearing a duty belt.

9. Volkswagen GTI - Dubai

Photo by: germancarblog.com

Price: $22,760 - $24,606

Top Speed: 149 mph

Although this is not the fastest car, the performance of the entire car is pretty impressive. There’s a three door and a five door GTI. The 2011 GTI is in great value, they might want to upgrade for a newer car but it will cost some more for the government.

8. Holden VE Commodore -Australia

Photo by: worldwidewebisphere.blogspot.com

Price: $34,490 - $36,490

Top Speed: 155 mph

On August 31, 2010, Holden revealed the VE Commodore Series II range, the first major update to the VE Commodore since its launch in 2006. No one will be able to say no when pinned down on the car, they might want to just have a ride.

7. Porsche Cayenne - Russia

Photo by: as tagged

Price: $41,416 – $110,477

Top Speed: 143 mph

The next-generation Porsche Cayenne was expected to go on sale on April–May 2010 as a 2011 model. You’ve got to try riding this car even if you’re not the one behind the wheel.

6. Ford Mustang GT – United States

Photo by: flickriver.com

Price: $21,149 - $35,596

Top Speed: 149 mph

For those who aren't sufficiently impressed by the GT's improvements from these past few decades, the TrackPack option package tightens up the suspension.

5. Jaguar XF – United Kingdom

Photo by: paultan.org

Price: $49,975

Top Speed: 149 mph

There is a version of the XF Diesel S for the UK market, intended to be used as a police car. The Jaguar Concept-XF was designed to showcase the preliminary styling of the Jaguar XF. So if there were feedbacks of the car, the Jaguar XF might have looked different.

4. Mazda RX-8 - Japan

Photo by: priceinspector.co.uk

Price: $26,645 - $32,140

Top Speed: 155 mph

The first version of the RX-8, chassis code SE3P, was produced from model year 2003. Have you ever seen the animated series “You’re Under Arrest?” Well the car looks really like the one in the series.

3. Mitsubishi Evolution X – United Kingdom

Price: $33,590 - $40,990

Top Speed: 155 mph

The Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution is also known as the Lancer Evo or Evo.

2. Porsche 911 - Germany

Photo by: carpictures1.com

Price: $84,100 – $106,100

Top Speed: 189 mph

From generations, it has now become a hero on the road for civilians. This is usually for racing but chasing villains is also racing right?

1. Lamborghini Gallardo LP560-4 Polizia - Italy

Photo by: mymodernmet.com

Price: $201,000

Top Speed: 203 mph

This car is very worth it and the price says it all. The smooth, fast driving on the road makes you want to have one, too. There was a report last year that one of the cars had an accident. Don’t worry both the police and the passenger had only minor injuries. Just imagine the horsepower it had to pull that incredible speed. Now I have to add this up in my dream car list.
