Another Lamborghini that's impossible to afford? Sure... introducing the Lamborghini Aventador, the newest in top performance sports cars. Guaranteed to be a Youtube Highway Street Racing sensation in Russia or Dubai, the Aventador LP 700-4 is the official replacement for the Murcielago, which I happened to love. Traditional with Lamborghini, quality is top notch, the this new beast is built on a very nice carbon fiber monocoque chassis with aluminum front and rear frames. The best of the body is built with carbon fiber. Not only does carbon fiber reduce weight, but it's also extremely strong, and it's perfect for a car of this caliber.
Power comes in at a hefty 700 horsepower at 8250 rpm that spins a 7 speed ISR transmission (independent shifting rods) featuring a dry double plate clutch. With 700 horsepower to start, I can only imagine that a turbo Aventador is going to produce. My estimate is around 1000rwhp with 5-7 PSI. At this boost level it will be extremely reliable, and downright scary fast.
The car is estimated to hit 67 miles per hour in only 2.9 seconds, which is a bit faster than the 2011 Nissan GT-R.
Incredibly, with this car makes 8% more power than the Murcielago, yet has an incredible 20% less emissions and better fuel economy. At 3,472 lbs, it has the power to wait ratio of 4.96 lbs per horsepower, and 217mph top speed. My idea of a good time.

Check out the interior in the above picture - stunning. Lamborghini has really created a work of art, and you can tell the level of detail that went into sculpting the interior with the best materials available. Beautiful touch screens help you keep your eyes off the road - just what you need in a 700 horsepower beast like this.

The body shape is very Lamborghini and features many sharp lines. Not as smooth as the car it replaces, but a work of art that you can't stop staring at. I don't care for the stock wheels, but if I had $379,700 to throw on a car, the wheels would be the last of my worries.
