Lamborghini is regarded by most to the be the crème de la crème of high luxury sports cars and with good reason. They're fast, they look good, and people take notice when one drives by.
When one thinks Lamborghini, one popular model thought of is the Diablo. This “devil” produced 492 hp and could reach 60 mph in approximately 4 seconds. When it went on sale in 1990, its base price was $240,000. Even for that kind of money, options were limited, and basic units had manual windows and only a radio.
Succeeding the Diablo was the Murciélago, which was unveiled in 2001. This two door coupe boasts amazing fuel economy of 8 mpg city and 13 mpg highway, and won the award for being the least fuel efficient car in 2008. However, with a price tag of over $300,000, the only thing that matters is how good you look in it.
The most current Lamborghini model is the Reventon. It debuted at the Frankfurt Auto Show in 2007 and is said to the be the most expensive and powerful road car thus far. Only 20 of these $1.4 million cars are said to be made and interestingly, this is the first model to have daytime running lights. There is also a G-Force meter which displays the drive forces - longitudinal and transversal accelleration.
