In 2009, a Russian firm produced what was arguably the world's most expensive -- and hideous -- new production vehicle. The Dartz Prombron Monaco Red Diamond, which retails at $1.5 million, sports gold-plated widows and diamond-adorned gauges. The seats were originally going to be upholstered in real whale penis (seriously), but after the World Wildlife Fund and Greenpeace protested, that option was removed. It also comes with three bottles of Russo-Baltique, the world's most expensive vodka, which is bottled in bulletproof glass. For the car, bulletproof wouldn't do, though: the manufacturer claims the vehicle itself is rocket-proof.
