Lamborghini Aventador Look Like Hot

Lamborghini is really good at creating sinister super sports cars, but it is equally as talented at naming them. According to the company, "Aventador" was the name of a bull that entered into battle on October 1993 at the Saragossa Arena, earning the "Trofeo de la Pena La Madroñera" for its outstanding courage. Having the courage to go up against a new world of super sports cars will be the name of the game for the new Lamborghini flagship. Today’s world is extremely high-tech and many new players have entered the arena.




"Aventador" was, according to the best detective work we can muster, a bull whose career peaked in 1993 in the town of Saragozza, Spain, when he and the torero had a particularly spirited encounter prior to ol' Aventador's inevitable skewering.
This particular beastie belonged to the breeding stables of the sons of Don Celestino Cuadri Vides and, for unknown reasons surely banal, he bore the number 32 singed on his hide. And now he gets the strongest Lamborghini ever built named after him. And about damned time! The British were getting tired of mispronouncing "Murcièlago" over the past ten years and now they have a new proper name to mutilate.



The doors open upward of course
Truly impressive proportions come from an overall length of 4,78 meters (188.19 in.) matched with an impressive width of 2,26 meters (88.98 in.) including the exterior mirrors, and further accentuated by an extremely low height of just 1.136 mm (44.72 in.). It goes without saying that both doors of the carbon-fiber monocoque open upward - a feature that was first introduced in the now legendary Countach and then used for subsequent V12 models such as Diablo and Murciélago. However, the Aventador also evokes its immediate predecessor the Murciélago - electronically managed air intakes open depending on the outdoor temperature and the need for cooling air,ensuring maximum aerodynamic efficiency. And for those whishing to flaunt the heart of their Lamborghini, the optional transparent engine bonnet exhibits the twelve-cylinder engine like a technical work of art in a display case.







The price of the Lamborghini Aventador and market delivery

UK: GBP 201.900,00 (suggested retail price taxes excluded)
Europe: € 255.000 (suggested retail price taxes excluded)
USA: 379.700 USD (suggested retail price - GGT included)
China: RMB 6.270.000,00 (suggested retail price taxes included)
Japan: YEN 39.690.000,00 (suggested retail price taxes included)




The first customers will take delivery of the new Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4 in late summer 2011.

Pagani Huayra 2014

Pagani Huayra Roadster is a new car from Pagani is ready to be launched later in the year 2014 with the title of Da Vinci. This car has the features and specifications of views, so that consumers will be loyal to await the arrival of this car later. Some limitations also have the car, using the name Da Vinci means that this car will turn into moniker when it was released later. Not only does it refer to the Quechua wind but Also another vehicle,a prototype Designed by Argentinian Heriberto Pronello for Ford in 1969




The powerful 700 horsepower bi-turbo engine will have the same sequential sever speed gearbox and will be fitted on the same chassis made of carbon fiber and titanium. The gull-wing doors will be replaced by a pair of some more “Made on Earth” doors and the detachable’s roof extra weight might affect the performance a bit

Like with the coupe version, the Huayra roadster will be powered by the same AMG sourced 6 liter V12 Bi-Turbo engine that delivers a total of 700 HP and 737 lbs-ft of torque. The only problem with this engine setup is that it will suffer due to the added weight of the convertible roof. The coupe sprints from 0 to 60 mph in less than 3 seconds, so the roadster version will probably come in a bit higher than that. The coupe’s top speed of 220 mph will also suffer.







Prices
he Pagani Huayra coupe is priced at about $1.4 million, so the roadster version should come in at about $1.5 million. Of course, we’ll have to wait until 2014 to get the official numbers.

Koenigsegg Agera R

At the 2011 Geneva Motor Show Koenigsegg is presenting the brand new Koenigsegg Agera R - Quicker than lightning! The Agera R on the Koenigsegg show stand - production car # 83 - is inspired by the legendary Speed Racer theme, as specified by the owner of the car. Speed Racers main colour is white - so is snow. Equipped with special Michelin tires and a custom made Thule Roof Box - Speed Racer is ready to attack the ski resorts.
In 2000 Koenigsegg presented a pre-production version of the Koenigsegg Agera. Since then the pre-production car and several test mules have continued the Agera development program. The Agera pre-production car has been driven by several influential motoring journals, resulting in raving reviews and awards, such as for example becoming the "Top Gear Hypercar of the Year". Please see attached quotes from these test-drives.





 Just how fast is this exotic two-door hyper-machine? Well, suffice it to say that the Agera R is hot on the Bugatti Veyron Super Sport’s tail clocking in at a blisteringly fast 0-168 mph in just 14.53 seconds. Although not yet completely verified, this performance proves that it won’t be long before Koenigsegg overtakes Bugatti and claim for itself the title of being the world’s fastest supercar.

The Agera R may be the epitome of performance, but style and luxury are not lost either. Standard equipment includes a detachable and storable hardtop roof, power windows, satnav system, MP3/USB compatibility, climate control, tire pressure monitoring system, and even a complete car cover. One of the coolest tech pieces about the new Agera is that you have to access a special “Top Speed” mode in the infotainment system to unlock its true potential. I still think the separate top speed key in the Bugatti is cooler, but this is a close second. If the owner so chooses, a set of fitted luggage, special leather interior options, and a myriad of exterior colors are available. The Geneva car was fitted with a distinctive and distracting Ski box on the roof. It’s sort of an oxymoron to take your Agera R to the ski resort, but the car is even available with winter tires.

Pagani Zonda Cinque Roadster | 2010

The Pagani roadcar model range would not be complete without a Roadster version of the Zonda Cinque. As the name implies it is created in the Modenese Atelier in a limited production run of merely five exclusive pieces like its coupé sister.
The Cinque experience is enhanced with the roof stored in the front bonnet, when the storm of air being fed to the 678hp Mercedes AMG V12 engine through the massive intake just inches over the passengers' ears, accompanies the exhaust note of the bespoke Pagani Zonda Cinque Inconel and Titanium exhaust system.





  With the wind ruffling their hair, drivers enter into perfect symbiosis with the Mercedes-Benz AMG 12V engine with its astounding 678 HP and 780 Nm torque, as they ride on the wings of a delightful melody arising from the enormous air inlet and the inconel and titanium exhaust system, exclusively designed at the Pagani atelier.

Prince Waleed's Million Dollar Car : Diamond Studded Mercedes Benz SL600

Invented and patented by Daniel Swarovski in 1892, the precision-cut crystal glasses made through the energy-intensive grinding process have been applied into many ranges of products including crystal sculptures and miniatures, jewelry and couture, home décor and chandeliers. In order to create a crystal that allows light to refract in a rainbow spectrum, SWAROVSKI AG of Wattens, Austria – the company founded in 1895 by Armand Kosman and Franz Weis – coats some of its crystals with special metallic chemical coatings.
One of the most popular coatings is Aurora Borealis or “AB” which gives the surface a rainbow oil slick appearance. Other coatings include Crystal Transmission, Volcano, Aurum, and Dorado. A new copyrighted cut, released in 2004, Xilion is able to optimize the brilliance of Roses (crystal components with flat backs) and Chatons (diamond cut).
To decorate the gullwing (upward-opening doors) roadster, the artisans have shaped each Swarovsky crystal into a diamond and then glued it onto the exterior and interior of the car. It took 3 months to complete each “bling-bling” Mercedez-Benz worth JP¥ 40,000,000 (approximately USD 442,311.52).
