Lamborghini Murciélago LP640 Roadster

You may not know this, but when you hear the word "supercar" your subconscious automatically registers a picture of a Lamborghini. In fact, it's a Murciélago. With the roof off. And an angry V12 screaming behind your head.

Break it down, and the Lamborghini Murciélago LP640 Roadster checks off all the proper supercar boxes:

Lamborghini – International symbol for sexy.
Murciélago – Spanish for "bat" as in "Just look at this thing, it's bat$#!+ crazy!"
LP – longitudinale postieriore, lengthwise in the rear is where the engine sits.
640 – the number of horses the 6.5-liter V12 unleashes on the unsuspecting tarmac.
Roadster – Your invitation to all the sights, sounds, smells and sensations of covering the open road, fast.

The Murciélago was the first model to bridge classic Lamborghini hardware (engine and transmission) with modern technology from parent company Audi (all-wheel drive and electronics). That means it's loaded with traditional supercar charm like jet-fighter styling, upward-swinging scissor doors and undeniably Italian driving position, but blessed with more contemporary accoutrements than its predecessors.

The LP640 serves up additional muscle and refinement on top of the original Murciélago. The larger, more powerful engine launches you to 60 mph in as little as 3.4 seconds without even shifting out of first gear, sends you to triple-digit speeds before you hit third, and delivers you to a top speed of just over 200 mph, if you dare.

However, the LP640 Roadster is one of those rare cars that don't need to be moving at all to be enjoyed. It's a sight to behold, with its distinctive wedge profile and full ensemble of spoilers, diffusers, vents and scoops, including the air intakes that magically rise up from the rear shoulders at high speeds for additional cooling capacity.

But take a slow cruise down a busy boulevard, and you'll feel like a superstar as cameras fly out of bystanders' pockets to capture the rarity of the sighting. With the roof off – and trust us, you'll want the roof off – entertain yourself with the sounds of not just the engine, but also the jealous admiration of the throng of onlookers you will attract.
