Cars don’t get much more opulent than what you see here.
Cars simply don’t get more opulent than the Rolls-Royce Phantom—the biggest Roller you can buy has always been the ultra-luxury benchmark. With a starting price just under half a million dollars, it better be.
The Cullinan is the Rolls-Royce of SUVs, so it’s no surprise to see it on this list. With a twin-turbo V-12 and more quality features than you could ever imagine, it’s the perfect vehicle for driving anywhere in total comfort.
Compared to most sedans, the Rolls-Royce Ghost is huge. But on this list, it seems like a compact. That means it’s small enough to drive yourself, should you want to give your chauffeur the day off. It’s still a Rolls-Royce, though, so the back seat is always the best in the house.
Some people like to be seen while they drive their ultra-luxury car. For them, there’s no better option than the Rolls-Royce Dawn. The Dawn is billed as the quietest drop-top ever produced, and that includes the convertible top itself—it was engineered specifically to open and close in silence.
If you like the Rolls-Royce Ghost but wish it was a bit more sporty, then the Wraith is the car for you. It’s one of the best grand tourers money can buy, and you can still pick from all the regular Rolls options like the starlight headliner.
Only in the world of ultra-luxury cars can a quarter-million-dollar sedan look affordable. Don’t think for a second, though, that there’s anything cheap about the Flying Spur. The new one can hit 207 mph, making it the fastest production sedan on earth.
Bentley unveiled the brand-new Continental GT in 2018 after a long wait, and it’s fabulous to drive. All the prestige of a Bentley wrapped in a sleek two-door 2+2 coupe shape.
All you need to know regarding the Bentayga’s luxury credentials is that it offers a $160,000 dashboard clock as an option. It’s a Breitling tourbillon, the only such clock to be fitted to a car.
If you want the ultimate expression of luxury from Mercedes-Benz, look for the Maybach badge. The latest top-level S-Class is coated in luxury, with a world-class interior and a classic two-tone exterior with plenty of chrome.
The GLS 600 is Mercedes’s first Maybach-branded SUV, and it certainly lives up to the name. With some wildly ostentatious looks and a massive rear seating area, it has everything you need to cruise the outback in perfect comfort.
The current Century might not have a V-12 anymore, but we’re confident Toyota has made the hybrid V-8 setup just as relaxing. Combine that with the company’s expertise in building fantastic luxury cars, and you’ve got yourself the ultimate JDM cruiser—as long as you live in Japan, the only country where it’s sold.
If you can get past those comically oversized kidney grilles, the 7-Series is a lovely piece of machinery that does the luxury thing extremely well. Though, like many cars on this list, you should keep in mind the heavy depreciation hit you’ll take if you buy it new.
The BMW X7 is like an SUV version of the 7-Series. That means all the features of BMW’s flagship sedan, plus the added perks of a high seating position and tons of cabin space. The Alpina version takes it one step further, with bespoke touches and even better materials. Oh, and it comes with a 612-horsepower engine.
If the regular Panamera Turbo or Turbo Sport Turismo just won’t cut it for you, Porsche also offers an extended-wheelbase Executive trim. It’s identical in spec to the regular Turbo S, with a more roomy back seat and extra rear comfort features.
The A8 is actually one of the more affordable cars on this list, but you wouldn’t know it by sitting inside. Plenty of standard features and an optional rear infotainment system (with its own removable tablet) will make any tech-savvy passenger happy.
No matter what you think of GM, you have to give the company credit for the Escalade. The interior is a lovely space to spend time in, and there’s a ton of modern tech to play with.
The LS is Lexus’s top-tier sedan, with things like 28-way power seats, an immensely quiet interior, and a twin-turbo engine with enough grunt to rocket the car to 60 mph in just 4.5 seconds.
Though the look may not be everyone’s cup of tea, the new Navigator is a huge step up in quality, making it a real competitor in the luxury SUV market. Get the extended-wheelbase version, and you’ve got one of the most capable limo-tanks out there.
The G90 might be one of the cheapest cars on this list (when new, anyway), but it’s also one of the most well-equipped and unique. Brand new for 2023, it has things like assisted driving features, active noise cancelation, and even the ability to auto-suggest a seating position for maximum comfort.
Bet you weren’t expecting to see a truck on this list, were you? Well, demand for luxurious pickups has skyrocketed in America, which led Ford to make the F-150 Limited. It’s the most expensive, feature-packed F-150 you can buy, equipped with an Ecoboost V-6, 360-degree cameras, internet connectivity, adaptive cruise control, and massaging, heated and ventilated seats.
Because you deserve to treat yourself (on a budget).
