By price · Order from cheapest to most expensive.

1. A large hand-tossed pizza from Domino's $14

   Domino's once guaranteed delivery in 30 minutes or the pizza was free — the promise was scrapped after lawsuits over drivers speeding.

2. A Lamborghini Urus SUV $240K

   Ferruccio Lamborghini built tractors first and started making supercars after Enzo Ferrari allegedly insulted him. The Urus is now the brand's best-seller.

3. A new Ferrari 296 GTB $340K

   Ferrari deliberately limits production below demand — the company makes more profit per car than almost any automaker, and the waitlist is part of the product.

4. Alaska, as the United States paid Russia for it $7.2M

   The 1867 nominal price worked out to about two cents per acre. Critics called it 'Seward's Folly' — then gold and oil turned it into history's great bargain.

5. The Mercedes 300 SLR Uhlenhaut Coupe, the most expensive car ever sold $142M

   Mercedes had kept both existing cars for nearly 70 years before secretly auctioning one in 2022 — the buyer's identity and the car's location remain closely guarded.

6. Chelsea Football Club, in the forced sale of the Abramovich era $3.1B

   The 2022 sale was forced by UK sanctions after the invasion of Ukraine — proceeds were earmarked for war victims, and it became the priciest sports team sale to date.
