surely get to 60 mph in 3.5 seconds somewhere. Estimated Car Insurance Cost for a Pagani Zonda F is around $24,000 a year but no matter how high Pagani car insurance rates are nothing says cool like a Pagani Zonda FSexy, Italian, Ferrari. 3 words every millionaire loves but this Italian love may cost you much less than a divorce at $670,000. Getting to 60mps in just 3.4 seconds and topping out at 217 mph the Ferrari Enzo was built with V12 F140 Aluminum creating 660 horsepower under the hood. The Ferrari Enzo is also one of the most sought after possessions for wealthy car collectors as fewer than 400 were ever produced. Car insurance rates for a Ferrari Enzo seems to be a bargain around $26,000 a year compared to the price of some Italian suits!More indicative of the success of the VW Golf though, is the shear volume of units sold since it’s inception over 30 years ago. 26 Million VW Golf’s sold in more than 120 countries around our globe, make it one of the best selling cars of our time. Then there is the GTI version.Since the first generation Golf was launched in1976, VW have been assigning the GTI badge to those Golf’s which have received more power, stiffer suspension and subtle aerodynamic tweaks – and which originally helped to coin the term ‘hot hatch’.

Well the new GTI is no different, except for one thing, it’s a GTI!Heavily bolstered seats, a chunky 3-spoke flat-bottomed steering wheel, brushed stainless-steel covered pedals and decorative red seams on the steering wheel, gearshift surround and leather parking brake, immediately tell you this is not an average Golf.
