exotic cars today

           In the wonderful world of exotic super cars, life couldn't be better. Say for example i am a very rich CEO of a major oil company and i decide i want a new car. But being the excessive poster child of today's American life, i can't just have any old car on the lot, you know. So i ride on down the the exotic car lots in the cleaner part of the city, and i purchase a new Lamborghini for around $500,000. okay, well now i have one more step on all those lower class people that cant afford such luxuries, and more importantly i have that exclusive ticket that gets me into all of those cool parties and makes me acceptable in those circles. But what I'm focusing on this week, is the fact that my new Lamborghini wont be new forever, and what will i need to buy twenty years from now (hopefully i am a young CEO), to remain in that upper crust of society.
           The new Bugatti Veyron sells for about $1,700,000, but don't let that drop your jaw because the Veyron can accelerate from zero to sixty miles per hour in 2.6 seconds! and it tops out at about 253 miles per hour. i guess that's what you get from the most expensive (available car) in the world today. Moving down the list to the seconded most expensive car in the world we have the Lamborghini Reventon. Now this car is not quite as fast as the Veyron but is by no measure a slow car, it in fact has a top speed of 240 miles per hour and a price tag of $1,600,000. One of the main reasons this car is one the top of the list is because of its rarity, there are only 20 made each year. As fascinating as these cars are they well, in not much time, be out of date and their technology will be obsolete. new ideas such as hydro cars (that can still reach speeds of over 200 miles per hour), or alternative fuel cars (that can till match to acceleration of the Veyron), will need to step into the spotlight of modern super cars.

  1. This is actually really interesting! Your details are great and I like how you elaborate and compare each car. One thing though I recommend working on is capitalizing your "I's". Also, capitalizing word that start a sentence.
