Lamborghini doesn’t replace its flagship V12 often, and when the Aventador finally did in 2011, it retired an engine architecture that traced back to 1963. Read on to find out how rare the Aventador really is, and what an Aventador ‘J’ sold for with no roof, no windows, and no air conditioning.

Pagani built exactly sixteen examples of the 2009 Zonda R, each one wrapping a 750-horsepower AMG-sourced V12 in a chassis made from aircraft-grade aluminum, titanium, and magnesium.

Read on to find out what that kind of extremity actually buys.
