 Indeed, when you rent an exotic car rental in Cleveland, or somewhere else, you will simply be amazed how a modern car is simply filled with unique features.

Of course, the automaker offers to install all this as an additional option for a surcharge, thereby trying to earn more money. According to statistics, when buying a new car, each buyer orders at least two additional options.

Some automakers offer incredible options for fabulous money. Here’re some of these unique additions that will be too expensive for the average driver...

Pagani began production of the new hypercar in 2012, and was planned to release a total of 85 cars. The 730-horsepower 6-liter twin-turbocharged V12 engine accelerates the car to a maximum speed of more than 370 km h. All this is due to the low weight of the hypercar, which is only 1,350 kg.

However, as it turned out, this is not the limit and the automaker offers to make the Huayra's weight even lighter, which means the car is faster. This is a fully carbon car body. This option will cost the owner of Huayra an additional $154,000.
