Most expensive car you've ridden/driven?

Probably my parents F250 for driving. For riding... most expensive I can think of would be my co-workers Lexus SUV or bosses BMW 545i (originally anyway).
 
Man, I'm totally going to lose this 🙁

Ridden in
-Ferrari 308 GTS
-Porsche 993 Carerra 4

Driven
-Ford F250 Super Duty Turbo Diesel
 
I retired from my own Import auto repair shop a few years ago It was located in Santa Barbara CA .... your guess is probably not high enough 😉 lets just say that it had gotten to the point that an original 427 AC Cobra did not even warrant a second glance.... 🙂
 
driven: slightly hopped up C6 vette drop-top

ridden: cobra replica with a 500+ hp engine (by far the fastest ive reached and zoomed past 100 mph)
 
I'd imagine that a Greyhound bus is pretty expensive. Obviously I've never driven one!

I did get to ride in a tank once.
 
Driven, new 1970 454 Corvette in 1970, and a couple of new 350ci, 350hp Vettes in the same year.
My 98 BMW 740i now, high dollar car when new, and by far the nicest cruiser I have ever driven.
 
Ridden: A 300K motorhome (can't remember the details of it ATM)

Driven: Probably a fully loaded Silverado 3500 or fully loaded F350
 
As far as small road cars go:

Ridden: '01 Viper GTS with roots supercharger, headers, cam, etc..
Driven: '07 Silverado LTZ

big stuff:

Ridden: M2 Bradley Fighting Vehicle
Driven: 2008 Gillig Low Floor bus (40')
 
ridden: lotus esprite, C5 vette, FL60 (freightliner) w/ 30 some foot motor home box and 40ish foot gold rush trailer, a drag racing rig.
drove: brand new gmc sierra 1500 loaded with everything, 100 foot Broward motor yacht. 2700 horse power! (worth around 3.5 mil)

Winnar... I would imagine 100ft yacht is worth a little more than 3.5mil
 
Most expensive in terms of original sticker price, or value when you drove / rode in it?? Is inflation taken into account?

Driven: Based on original MSRP, probably my 1994 BMW 840. Based on value at the time would probably be either an Excalibur (unsure of value), or a brand new C5 Z06.

Ridden in - probably my neighbor's old Porsche 928S.
 
ridden: don't know the name but it was a GM car that had a Grill on it that was identical to Rolls and Rolls sued because of it..
and a couple of Mercedes.
edit:

here's the story


Drove: nothing special.
 
Driven: 2008 International Truck with brand new 53 foot trailer (forgot make).

Ridden: 2003 SL 600 Diesel Benz in Europe
