Lamborghin, Lamborghin new Reventon supercar, Expensive Sport Car
Lamborghini revealed its new Reventon supercar at the Frankfurt auto show in 2007 and a week later in the U.S. at the Los Angeles Auto Show. By that time, most of the planned production units were already spoken for. Based on the Murcielago sports car, the Reventon is said to be inspired by the F-22 Raptor fighter jet.Recent reports indicate the car will cost nearly $1.6 million -- significantly above the Murcielago $300,000 MSRP. In fact, anyone who wants the car has been asked to put down a deposit of nearly that amount.The engine hood made of glass laminate with open ventilation slits offering a glimpse at the large 6.5-liter V12 engine. The Reventon delivers 650 horsepower and 487 pound-feet of torque. Lamborghini will only build 20 Reventons, with all being spoken for. Eleven of the 20 cars will be U.S.-bound.

Koenigsegg CCX, Expensive Sport Car


Koeningseeg CCX
$ 695,000
When Koenigsegg first hit the scene in 2001, critics and enthusiasts were amazed by what was possible -- from a Swedish car. That qualification was always thrown in as if geographically devaluing the accomplishment, like “best Cuban skier” or “skinniest Wisconsinite.” There’s none of that with the CCX. It’s simply amazing in its own right. Just a tad behind the SSC Ultimate Aero and Bugatti Veyron in performance, and with a top speed of around 245 mph, the CCX pulls away from both with arguably better styling inside and out. You get what you pay for: Supremacy that happens to be Swedis.
