Audi has a few models that qualify around this position, but we’ll keep it simple with just one. The 2017 Audi S8 Plus is the selection. First and foremost, the TFSI engine with 605 horsepower is astounding, especially mated with the Quattro AWD system.

3D satellite navigation, a top- and corner-view parking camera system, Night Vision Assistant, and a Head Up Display are features the S8 Plus contains. And it should, with a price tag hovering at $115,900 to start. Tack on another $11,000 if you want the Dynamic Package with ceramic brakes and a carbon fiber lip spoiler.

7. 2017 Jaguar XJR Long Wheel Base

If a Jaguar’s uniqueness is more your style, the Jaguar XJR is a great way to spend your small fortune. The 2017 XJR in the long-wheel-base design has an available supercharged 5.0-liter V8, producing 550 horsepower. With that performance still comes a ton of luxury features.

Just to name a few, the 2017 Jaguar XJR LWB has LED adaptive headlamps, a 12.3-inch cluster display, soft door close, panoramic roof, puddle lamps, and electric rear and side sunblinds. Yeah, it’s posh. The sticker price is $121,000.

6. 2017 BMW Alpina B7 xDrive

It’s not everyone’s style – unless fast, elegant, and extremely refined handling are your style. The 2017 BMW Alpina B7 with xDrive is seriously on the next level. Its 600-horsepower 4.4-liter V8 is actually NOT the focal point of this car – the interior is.

It’s at this point we begin to see the potential for a full-time Jeeves. Elegant power-adjustable rear seating is accented in diamond stitching. There are rear-seat entertainment monitors affixed to the seat backs. Available rear-seat ventilation and massage functions are top of the line. And air-ride suspension both front and rear make handling a dream while keeping your coffee in your cup, not in your lap. It’ll only cost you $138,000 plus.
