By price · Order from cheapest to most expensive.
- A brand-new Toyota Corolla $23K
With over 50 million sold since 1966, the Corolla is the best-selling car nameplate in history — one has been sold roughly every 30 seconds for decades.
- 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.
- 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.
- Thirty seconds of advertising time during the Super Bowl $8M
In 1967, a Super Bowl ad cost about $42,000. Brands now spend millions more on celebrity talent and production than on the airtime itself.
- Dennis Tito's trip to the International Space Station as the first space tourist $20M
NASA objected so strongly to the 2001 visit that Tito trained in Russia and flew on a Soyuz — NASA staff were initially told not to assist him.
- The Amazon stock MacKenzie Scott received in history's biggest divorce settlement $38B
Scott has since given away billions at a record pace, often with no application process — charities report receiving surprise phone calls.
