Reventón

The Lamborghini Reventón ( Spanish pronunciation: [reβenˈton] ) is a mid-engine sports car that debuted at the 2007 Frankfurt Motor Show . It is the most expensive Lamborghini road car to date, costing one million euros (~ US$ 1.5 million, or ~ £ 840,000). [ 1 ] Its top recorded speed was recorded in Dubai, UAE at 356 kilometres per hour (221.2 mph). The official press release stated that only 20 vehicles would be sold to the public, [ 2 ] with one additional car (marked as 0/20) produced for the Lamborghini Museum. [ 3 ] Although early rumors indicated the total number would actually be 100, [ 2 ] [ 4 ] [ 5 ] each Reventón is clearly stamped with its number in the sequence of 20 between the driver's and passenger's seats.

Maserati MC-12

Due to the MC12’s considerable success, immediately followed up with numerous victories in the FIA’s GT1 class, a second batch of 25 cars was built in 2005. Designed for high level road use, the MC12 exceeded 330 kmh at full throttle, sprinting from 0 to 100 kmh in just 3.8 seconds. The MC12 benefited from the Ferrari-Maserati Group’s most advanced technologies and competition experience.
