Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4


The new 691-horsepower Aventador will replace today's Lamborghini Murceialago. This car's V12 engine is not only more powerful but also smaller and lighter than the Murcielago's. The Aventador weighs 200 pounds less and has a lower center of gravity.

It's expected to cost about $380,000.
