Mercedes-AMG GTC

For the times in life you fantasize about making a ridiculous splash there are cars that will do the trick. I'd add the Mercedes-AMG GTC to this fanciful category. Its sweeping proportions give it art deco flair. This car is made for a racetrack, where its performance credentials make it a contender zipping from 0 to 60 in 3.5 seconds. But it's also pretty grand to cruise around Los Angeles for kicks, and picking up a friend, made this a total splurge.

Price: $167,765.
