There are tons of upsides, though, as sedans are generally much more comfortable to live with than coupes.

Unless you’ve been living under a rock, I’m sure you’ll be aware that multi-million-dollar cars require eye-watering amounts of money just for simple maintenance and servicing, especially if it’s a Bugatti. Over the years, we’ve had many Bugatti owners tell us how insanely expensive it is to own a hypercar. While a 27-year-old recently claimed that his $4 million Bugatti Chiron Pur Sport Carbon goes a mere 62 miles on a full tank of fuel, renowned entrepreneur and influencer Manny Khoshbin has given a detailed account of the ownership cost of his Veyron in the past. He claimed that all fluids have to be changed each year, and that costs a whopping $25,000.

The owner of a $1.7 million Bugatti Veyron was shocked when the official service center quoted him $12,000 to replace a faulty door mirror switch. The clever owner took it to a supercar specialist who swapped it with an identical part from a Volkswagen van, which cost just $1.

Leather has been a staple for luxury vehicles for nearly a century. BMW has offered leather since at least the 1930s and probably before. In the early days, leather upholstery was a substantial upcharge from run-of-the-mill cloth, as much as almost 10 percent of the vehicle’s MSRP. That’s some serious cash for something that some people pay no attention to and others are downright opposed to.

BMW is all about customization, and recent patent filings from the German Patent and Trademark Office point to their continued focus. In a patent published on August 8th, 2024, BMW has patented an invention to allow drivers configurable exterior mirrors. The patent’s description starts by essentially describing an exterior mirror as we know it today. Lights inside the mirror allow an integrated turn signal element to illuminate as needed. It goes on to explain that “the disadvantage is that there is no individualization [of the] light signature emitted by the lamp.” We’re not sure how high that ranks on the scale of automotive first world problems, but it can’t be far off from “this car’s Wi-Fi is too slow” and “these heated seats are too warm.”
