If you have some extra money to spend this year, you might be thinking to yourself, “I should buy a Bugatti,” or maybe you want to buy a private jet? Or maybe both are completely out of your price range, nonetheless, you might be interested to know which costs more just in case you win the lottery and need to make a sensible purchase.
So what is the cost of owning a Private Jet and Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport for a year?
First of all, a Bugatti Veyron retails for $2,128,230 right out of the door. You can’t lease it, or rent it, you can only buy it. They make less than 100 per year and there is typically a waiting list. If you were to fork over the initial costs to buy a Bugatti, you would have to maintain it as well. Here are just a few of the yearly costs:
- Routine Service at Authorized Bugatti Dealership, about $20,000
- Reaching top speeds of 253 MHP, you’ll need new tires, $35,000 set of four. At top speeds, you’ll burn out tires in 12 minutes.
- After 4th tire change, rims must be stress tested for cracks on a track. Costs: $60,000
Include auto insurance, fuel costs (8 MPG), car detailing service, and other miscellaneous fees, and you have a grand total of $300,000/year for a Bugatti.
A midsize private jet, meantime, can cost $2,200 to $2,700 an hour – including catering, fuel, pilots and maintenance. Some jet-management companies put the expense of all the operations at $200,000 a year or less. (Of course, those per-hour trip costs don’t include the purchase price nor depreciation.)
At an average costs of $2,500 per hour, you could travel approximately 120 hours for $300,000 in a private jet and fly between NY and LA 17 times.
It seems to me your money goes much further in a private jet, while a Bugatti is a cash drain that only Billionaires can afford. Which do you think is more expensive?







I would take a private jet over bugatti any day.
In regards to gorgeous high class automobiles, the Europeans preserve the crown, as a result of such popular brands as Ferrari, Bentley, Aston Martin, and Wiesmann. Experience high quality, appreciate life.
What makes the tires cost 35k? Seems way too high… unless they are made of gold. In any event, one can probably feel safer renting out his/her private jet more than their vehicle. This will defer some of the costs from the owner.
