Aston Martin DBS Ultimate

Aston Martin DBS Ultimate

The bad news is that Aston Martin will be discontinuing the DBS soon. The good news: they’re phasing it out with one final bang.

The Aston Martin DBS Ultimate is a limited, special edition of which only 100 will be produced. It’ll carry over the same 510hp V12 from the standard model, but includes a host of upgrades elsewhere.

Additions include carbonfibre wing mirrors, rear diffuser and taillight inserts, black numberplate surround, smoked taillights, Zircotec-coated exhaust pipes, dark front grille, black diamond-turned alloy wheels, the option of red, yellow or black brake calipers, diamond-quilt stitching (red or silver), alcantara headliner, headrest embroidery, and red leather-trimmed steering wheel-mounted paddle shifters.

You’ll have your choice between a coupe or convertible, either a six-speed manual or six-speed ‘Touchtronic II’ automatic transmission, and one of three colors: Carbon Black II, Quantum Silver and Silver Fox.

Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport Wei Long Edition

Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport Wei Long Edition

Unveiled at the Beijing Motor Show, the Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport Wei Long Edition is anything but typical.

Aside from being one of the most powerful supercars in the world, the Wei Long Edition – in collaboration with porcelain maker, Königliche Porzellan Manufaktur – features white porcelain dragon sculptures, both inside and out. It also boasts embroidered headrests and handcrafted pure silk floor mats. But perhaps what the drooling spectators will notice first is the pearl white paint job, carmine red interior and carmine red brake calipers teasing them from behind 20-inch alloy wheels.

Unfortunately, if the $2 million price tag doesn’t exclude you from ever owning the Wei Long Edition, the fact that only one (of which is already sold) is being produced, will.

WHY Wally-Hermes Yacht

WHY | Wally-Hermes Yacht

In case the photo didn’t give it away, the WHY (Wally-Hermes Yacht) is the epitome of excess. WHY is a new company from the collective minds of french luxury brand, Hermes, and yacht-maker out of Monaco, Wally. They didn’t want to just create yet another luxury yacht, they wanted to create a moving island that combined the convenience of a boat with the size and sustainability of, well, an island.

Not only is it a behemoth as far size is concerned, but the WHY also has little negative effect on the ocean as it recycles thermal energy along with organic and inorganic wastes. Our favorite feature? When the boat is anchored it creates a calm, flat surface of water behind it that you can use as an olympic-sized pool.

Aston Martin One-77

Aston Martin One-77

You know what I’d do as a millionaire during times of economic trouble? Blow $2 million on one of the baddest supercars in the world. Which is probably why I’m not a millionaire.

All kidding aside, the Aston Martin One-77 is no joke. The hand-formed aluminum body displays ribbed sides, monstrous headlights and aggressive ducts, all of which were inspired by the race cars of the Deutsche Tourenwagen Masters. Under the hood you’ll find a 7.3-liter V12 engine capable of delivering 750 horsepower and 750 lb-ft of torque. Reports claim that it smashes 0-60 in just over 3 seconds, and has a top speed of over 200 mph. The car also features a fully adjustable suspension with pushrod-activated dampers, carbon-ceramic brake rotors, and a six-speed paddle-shifted transmission exclusive to the One-77.

If the name wasn’t indication enough, only 77 were produced (eight of which will arrive in the United States). Need one for your garage? Better hurry… there’s only one left.

2013 Hennessey Venom Spyder

2013 Hennessey Venom Spyder

From Hennessey—yes, the same company that gave Dodge Vipers even more brute power and handling ability—comes what sort of resembles what the mating of a Lotus, Porsche Carrera GT, and Panoz roadster might look like.

Although most of the de facto specs have yet to be released, the Hennessey Venom GT Spyder (even sounds like one super badass car, right?) will serve as the ragtop version of the much-envied Venom GT (itself a $950k gem). And running counter to what may seem logical, losing the roof will cost an additional $200,000. But, hey, with this kind of sheer, 1,200+ horsepower awesomeness—as well as a nearly bottomless wallet—what’s a cool million?

Like the annoying infomercials command, ACT NOW!…because Hennessey has plans to build only five Venom GT Spyders, and dibs have already been claimed on two.

Red Gold Dream | Ruby and Gold Mercedes

Red Gold Dream | Ruby and Gold Mercedes

By far the most ridiculous car we’ve ever featured here on inStash… the “Red Gold Dream.”

This custom Mercedes McLaren SLR is the brainchild of Ueli Aniker, taking a team of 35 people and 30,000 man-hours to build. What in the world could possibly make this car worth $11 million? Well, it’s not the fastest car in the world (although with 700 hp, it ain’t the slowest either), and it’s far from what we would consider eye-candy. But all of that hideous gold paint you’re looking at happens to be real… 11 pounds of it to be exact. Oh, and the 600 rubies lining the interior and dash might have something to do with it as well.

We wouldn’t recommend driving this down the street with anything less than a platoon… but hey, if your pockets are deep enough to even have the opportunity to drive it, who are we to give you advice!

Maybach Exelero

Maybach Exelero

You eventually have to ask yourself: When is too much excess, well…too much excess?

Meet the Maybach Exelero—a 700 horse V12 beauty that’s capable of achieving 220mph. It was conceived, designed, and produced by legendary tire-maker Fulda and shares various bits and pieces with the uber-luxurious Maybach 57 sedan. Price: $8 million.

In fact, the Exelero is so damn expensive that it appears that even Bryan ‘Birdman’ Williams (the hip-hop executive who made the likes of  Lil’ Wayne the stars they are) can’t pay for it. So the Exelero—of which we’re not sure if there’s more than one—was returned to some uber-rich, European guy (Arnaud Massartic) and life on Earth resumed.

Note to Maybach: Please churn out more of these Batmobile-lookin’ contraptions—just try to keep the price tag under a cool mil. Thanks!

Bugatti Galibier

Bugatti Galibier

You don’t earn the title “Supercar” by being a slouch. Bugatti’s Veyron has unofficially held the title since 2005, but now faces an upset from none other than… drum roll please…. Bugatti! The manufacturer’s new Galibrier is going into production, and it’s got looks that will melt your heart and specs that will melt the road. 

Think about 1000 horses taking you from zero to sixty in about three seconds. Now think about covering those horses in impossibly luxurious burled wood and leather. And then think about making those horses run on either gasoline or environmentally friendly biofuel. Okay, that analogy has gone about as far as it can go. But you get the idea. It’s a four-door turbo-charged Ritz Carlton on wheels, and you want one.

Porsche Design Advent Calendar

Porsche Design Advent Calendar

The holidays are fast approaching, so if you’re looking for that one special gift…you should probably keep looking because this is way outside your price range.

The Porsche Design Advent Calendar is the ultimate in excess. It’s like giving a big middle finger to the economy and saying, “Recession? What recession?”

The calendar is a 2-meter high brushed aluminum box that blesses owners with extravagant gifts throughout the Christmas season, such as 18-carat gold sunglasses, French Classic luggage, fine writing instruments and S2 running shoes. However, the biggest gifts are those that don’t exactly fit within the calendar’s cubbies – specifically, a Porsche Design P´6910 Indicator in rosé gold, a customizable Porsche Design Kitchen P´7340 and an eight and a half meter long yacht designed by the Porsche Design Studio in Zell am See, Austria.

There will only be five calendars made – one per continent – so if you absolutely must have it, get your checkbook ready.
