Base MSRP $354,000

With a pricetag that can approach the half-million mark, once further customized or specially fitted, the Murcielago is a true exotic, offered in rare enough numbers to make spotting one a rare treat, even in moneyed areas. Meanwhile, Murcielago Roadsters are still among the hottest exotics to be seen cruising Rodeo Drive or Miami's South Beach. Those with a racing bug will likely gravitate to the lighter, faster LP670-4 SuperVeloce that's new this year, offering some improved numbers that might make a difference at the track--and give some added bragging rights beyond Murcielago ownership itself. All this said, the Murcielago offers a remarkably civil driving experience, but visibility is very difficult because of its low driving position and bodywork that favors fashion and high-speed aerodynamics over day-to-day functionality. What matters ultimately to most buyers won't have anything to do with practicality--rather the Murcielago's exclusivity, and the fact that it's one of the world's fastest sports cars.
