    2012 Lamborghini Sesto Elemento...this thing is wicked looking
    Originally posted by online article
    Lamborghini has already confirmed that the Sesto Elemento will indeed be headed to the production line, albeit in a very limited run. With such a minute number being produced, anyone would be hard-pressed to get know when Lamborghini is even actively selling it, let alone be able to grab hold of one of those units. The task of purchasing an Elemento got even harder as a high-end dealership in La Jolla, just north of San Diego, confirmed that Lamborghini was already accepting orders for the car and that only three units were headed over to the United States.

    The Lamborghini Sesto Elemento will be offered at a princely sum and rumors suggest that payment will be taken Reventon-style, which means three equal payments of $300,000 or higher with the remainder being paid at the end of the deal. That kind of price tag will bring its owner a 570 HP V10 engine and a power-to-weight ratio of only 1.75 kilograms per HP. This allows the Sesto Elemento to sprint from 0 to 60 mph in a sensational 2.5 seconds, while top speed will be higher than 186 mph.

    Anyone willing and able to pay that incredible price tag better have their phone in hand and their bank account numbers handy.

    UPDATE 05/05/2011: The German magazine Auto Motor Und Sport reports that the production version Sesto Elemento will arrive in October 2011. Lamborghini will produce only 20 units of the supercar each carrying a price tag of 1.9 million euro, or about $2.8 million at the current exchange rates.
    damn.

      Ford GT hands down. I doubt a fox would ever be able to go that fast no mater how much power it made; the tricky part is staying on the ground. Aerodynamics are what it is all about when going fast.

      One of my RX-7s puts 738hp to the wheels and its top speed is limited by aerodynamic lift at the rear of the car, not by a lack of power.
      Magnus, I am your father. You need to ask your mother about a man named Calvin Klein.

        Most people I talk to have nothing but good things to say about you, but you sure come across as a condescending prick. Do you have an inferiority complex you've attempted to overcome through overachievement? Or were you fondled as a child?

        You and slow99 should date. You both have passive aggressiveness down pat.

          It's a long-running joke here.

            A 13b. Cars with RX in the name need to keep rotaries in them.

                I agree, but...how often does it break down

                Also, how much oil does it burn?

                  The engine hasn't been out of it in 7 years but I only put a few thousand miles per year on it. It still has that factory oil metering pump so I doesn't use much oil at all; half a qt in a 1000 miles maybe less.

                    That's awesome. The RX-8 burns a quart every 1000 or so, so by the time it's ready for an oil change it doesn't need one because you're constantly putting new oil in it
