2011 Lamborghini Sesto Elemento

We’ve really got something special for you today. When the first of today’s cars debuted at the Paris Motor show last year, even the most jaded car geeks’ jaws dropped. And because Forza Motorsport 4 is all about bringing you a variety of experiences that get people jazzed about cars, whether it’s racing, tuning, or painting them, it seemed like the perfect car to bring into the game—particularly because, at this point in time, unless you’re part of Lamborghini’s top management the closest you can probably get to drive the incredible Lamborghini Sesto Elemento is in Forza.

Faceted like a cut diamond, there’s no mistaking the Sesto Elemento for anything else on the road—even other Lamborghinis. Sesto elemento is Italian for “sixth element;” if you don’t have a periodic table nearby, that’s carbon, a not-so-subtle hint that the body is composed entirely of the woven stuff. Regardless of what it’s made out of, the Sesto Elemento is primal and aggressive, studded with blinding red accents and show-stopping open rear bodywork from which the taillights and transaxle dangle precariously. Under the six red hexagons serving as outlets for engine heat resides the same 5.2-liter V10 found normally in the Gallardo, but considering that the Sesto Elemento is more than half a ton lighter than the Gallardo, performance is in another dimension entirely. Lamborghini claims the carbon-covered monster will teleport to 60 mph in less than 2.5 seconds, and that seems reasonable, if you can consider such wild acceleration reasonable at all. For truly elemental performance, look no further than this ultimate Lamborghini.
