Lamborghini Sesto Elemento
One of the most appealing features for some luxury car buyers is exclusivity. Not just anyone can afford to buy them, so those who can are clearly a breed apart. Only 20 units of the Lamborghini Sesto Elemento are going to be built, but there are other factors bringing its exclusivity to another level entirely.
Apart from costing a prohibitively expensive $2.9 million , it also fails to meet the safety specifications required to legally operate it in the United States. Therefore, a full 300 million people are barred from ever experiencing the car’s panther-like speed.
”Sesto elemento” is Italian for “sixth element,” which those familiar with the periodic table will recognize as carbon. The vehicle’s chassis is composed almost entirely from carbon fiber. It can reach 62 miles per hour in 2.5 seconds, and the tailpipes are made from the glass and ceramic composite Pyrosic, which can withstand temperatures of over 1,600 degrees Fahrenheit.

This car has so much future tech in it that it really is an engineering masterpiece and marvel. 20 very lucky people who will almost never drive the car which is the biggest shame in all of this.
