The rarest among them are the 1971 Plymouth Hemi Cuda convertibles: only 12 such cars were built. But this example is doubly unique — it is the only one made for the European market, so its speedometer is calibrated in kilometers per hour.

This muscle car was bought in France, but over time it moved back to the United States. Over half a century, the car has covered only 98,500 km. It is the combination of rarity and such modest mileage that has driven the price to a level comparable to two Bugatti Chirons.

In its day, it was one of the fastest cars in America. The seven-liter V8 Hemi produces 425 hp, with it the car reaches 100 km/h in 5.6 seconds, and the top speed reaches 240-250 km/h. The Plymouth Cuda convertible is equipped with a 4-speed manual and a limited-slip differential.
