Forget how much it costs, but this one's expensive: https://www.delta7bikes.com/arantix-mountain-bike.htm
And there's also that weird looking bike with no suspension, but a bunch of curved tubes that flex and act as suspension. Really bad description, but I can't remember what it's called.

I know it is expensive but I wish I could get it. That Cannondale Flash Ultimate is a full on XC Race bike that is used by Cannondale Factory Racing. The bike also weighs an astonishing 16 lbs.
It also has the DT Swiss Carbon Wheels with come out to almost half the cost of the bike at approximately $4000.

Honda RN01.
But you knew I would say that . . . and it was never a consumer product.

Hm, a lot of these bikes are expensive, but if I somehow got one, I'd sell and buy something else. How about an expensive bike I'd keep?

Kind of what happens with jewel encrusted cell phones - between obsolescence and actual use, diminishing returns quickly show up.

^^ Heavier than it should be for an all-carbon fiber frame. Runs a Nexus hub as a transmission. They put the weight at 55 lbs. - - of course they went ridiculous with Double-Wide rims and 3.0 Gazz tires. Interesting concept nonetheless. More info here:
