The $354,000 Lamborghini almost defines the term "exotic car." Wide, brawny and colorful, it's powered by a 6.5-liter V-12 that makes 632 bhp at a siren-like 8000 rpm. And it sends all that power to all four wheels.
Easy to forget, then, that under all that Bird of Paradise glamour is a very tough, fast and well-developed sports car. On our 2-lane Central Coast roads it was magnificent — a go-kart with huge wide tires, superb suspension and 632 screaming horsepower. Wide, yes, but it's a car that gets smaller and nimbler the faster you go.
