Cars you absolutely need in Vegas

Las Vegas has always been known for its skyscrapers and of course gambling. But the other less known part of Las Vegas was for its cars. Cars found in Las Vegas are not just exotic but these are some really rare masterpieces of mechanical prowess. 

Every car you see in Las Vegas is undoubtedly a special one and if you are in Las Vegas, get one for yourself. Because you will need one when going on shopping, fine dining, and of course driving around the exotic down with your exotic car. And it is not just all about luxury vehicles or the fastest supercars and hypercars in the automotive industry. 

Cars you find on the streets of Las Vegas are mostly of the rare kind which you usually do not see in your daily drives. That does not mean a Ferrari or a Rolls-Royce is much more common on everyday roads.

The takeaway is that there are some cars in the automotive industry that are built as one-off models or as a special edition for some reason or a person. These are the kind along with some classics and rare performance cars that you can find in Las Vegas. 

That is because the place by itself has been established for being very expensive, exotic, glamorous, and ostentatious. And it is very rare to see common cars like the 2021 Honda Civic in Las Vegas. 

The main reason is the fact that you of course will not be a person living in Las Vegas who drives a 2021 Toyota Corolla. That simply does not go well with your status quo and the place where you live. 

Find the list of exotics acceptable in Vegas:

Aston Martin DB11 Coupe

Aston Martin is not just any car manufacturer in the industry. They are among one of the most legendary car manufacturers and have a long history in racing too. Now they make some really exotic cars in the automotive industry which showcases pure British Elegance and has undoubtedly become a desirable brand among true car enthusiasts. Of all the exotic cars in Aston Martin’s stable, the Aston Martin DB11 which replaced the popular DB9 is the best Aston Martin has to offer with their finest engineering. 

Ok, it is not all British Engineering at the heart of the matter, the powertrain of the DB11 is sourced from Mercedes-AMG but still, it is the ultimate British Grand Tourer you want. When Aston Martin introduced the DB11 in 2017 replacing the DB9, it became an instant success. The 2021 Aston Martin DB11 Coupe is not for everyone as it offers a very different blend compared to traditional Grand Tourers like the Continental GT. 

The DB11 is pure British Elegance and also boasts its finest engineering which makes it really unique from its rivals. It also has the power and driving dynamics which makes you want to drive longer and longer in the countryside. The main advantage of the DB11 Coupe over all these cars is that it is the only car that has the perfect balance between driving dynamics and ride quality making it a great Grand Tourer. This is undoubtedly one glamorous car that will garner a lot of attention on the roads of Las Vegas. 

One thing which differentiates the DB11 and makes it unique among the Ferraris and Lamborghinis is the fact that it is all about design. The design is just so exquisite and looks like moving craftsmanship which is what you want in Las Vegas.

McLaren 720s Coupe

McLaren Automotive took the automotive world by an absolute storm when they launched the 720s back in March 2017. The 720s is one of the most ultimate supercars that are road legal even today in the automotive industry. The McLaren 720s was a force to reckon with and it truly gave Ferrari and Lamborghini a run for their money. 

And yes, just like Ferrari, McLaren has a long heritage in racing and is undoubtedly a legendary automaker. McLaren is a significant team in Formula 1 and has won many constructors and driver championships throughout their racing history. McLaren used all the knowledge gained from Formula 1 and implemented them in their road cars in the best way possible. The 720s is the epitome of the British marque’s engineering prowess and one of the best supercars on sale today. 

The rivals particularly have also taken the game to a whole another level, and these are some huge names in the automotive industry with a vast amount of experience and expertise in building a supercar. We are of course talking about the likes of rivals like the Ferrari 812 Superfast, Aston Martin DBS Superleggera, and the Lamborghini Aventador SVJ. 

The McLaren is the ultimate supercar that one would ever want and will go down in history as one of the best gasoline supercars that were ever made in the automotive industry. The 720s has got the looks, performance, driving dynamics, brakes, and a surprisingly decent fuel economy. 

All these make it one of the best choices in the segment if performance and looks are your top priority because yes, the 720s really looks like it is from a totally different planet. When you drive the 720s around Las Vegas, no one wants to mess with you. They would rather be settled by just seeing your rear spoiler than trying to make a move.

McLaren 570s Coupe

The McLaren 570s Coupe is a performance sports coupe and it is a special one as it draws many notes from the McLaren Formula 1 car which by itself is a lot exotic. The structure of the 2020 McLaren 570s Coupe is hugely made of Carbon Fibre making the car both lighter and rigid. 

The inspiration from a Formula 1 car means that the interior design will also have a huge impact and yes it does in many ways. Everything in the interior from the driver-focussed center console to the low seating position, the 2020 McLaren 570s Coupe is designed to be both sporty and comfy but, it is undoubtedly focused a lot on sportiness rather than comfort. 

The McLaren is the most unique car as it not only offers more customization options but also is a true sports car with a Carbon Fibre structure and reduced weight which only true sports car enthusiasts will appreciate. 

And driving a car that is inspired by a Formula 1 car is enough to brag a lot about. To take it out on the roads of Las Vegas sends a massive statement to every one of who you really are.

Lamborghini Huracan Evo

The Lamborghini Huracan came as a replacement to the popular Lamborghini Gallardo which sold over 14,000 units since 2003. The original Huracan which made its international debut at the 2014 Geneva Auto Show already had tremendous pressure on its shoulders to fill the shoes of the Lamborghini Gallardo. 

That added with the tough competition from its rivals like the Audi R8 and the Ferrari 488 gave Lamborghini problems to produce worthy competitors and thus came the Huracan, named after a Spanish Fighting Bull, Hurricane. The original Lamborghini Huracan though capable was not up to Lamborghini standards and lacked behind in terms of performance and ride when compared to its rivals like the Ferrari 488 and the Audi R8. 

With the 2019 model year, Lamborghini came with the Huracan Performante level performance and the price that is reasonable in the form of Lamborghini Huracan Evo. The Huracan Evo comes with the Huracan Performante’s 5.2-liter naturally aspirated V10 engine producing 631 bhp and 600 Nm of torque. 

These power figures are 30 bhp higher than the original Huracan and the changes are huge out on real-world driving. The Huracan Evo now also has seven times more downforce and 6 times better aerodynamic efficiency than the previous model all helping to enhance the driving experience like never before. 

And let us not even start with the exoticness of a Lamborghini. When you are driving a Lamborghini, you are of course driving it to gain lots of attention and heads. That is because you want everyone to know that you are driving something that is really glamorous and exotic.

Lamborghini Urus

After an agonizing wait from 2012 since the first concept was shown to the world, the Lamborghini Urus is finally launched in 2019. And if you think that the Lamborghini Urus is the company’s first SUV, you are very much mistaken as this Lamborghini Urus is the second SUV from the luxury sports car manufacturer. Forget the term SUV, Lamborghini in fact calls this Urus as SSUV which abbreviates to Super Sports Utility Vehicle. 

And if there’s one someone in the world who can do an SSUV, it is obviously Lamborghini and it’s definitely a super sports SUV. The Lamborghini Urus is the less expensive Lamborghini ever built that you can get which can seat five passengers and offer a decent boot space. But still, the Lamborghini Urus stays true to its brand name by offering super sports car-like performance in an SUV. 

It is obvious that Lamborghini will have a petrol engine under its hood and what we have here is a Twin-Turbo V8 with a couple of turbochargers producing an output of a whopping 650 bhp and 850 Nm of torque. The Lamborghini is easily more powerful than both its competitors like the Bentley Bentayga W12 and the Mercedes-AMG G 63. 

But even though being the entry model in the Lamborghini stable, the Urus however feels the most intimidating and the one that turns a lot of heads. This makes it the exotic Lamborghini to ever drive on the roads of Las Vegas making it our favorite.

Mercedes-AMG GT

The Mercedes-AMG GT was Mercedes’s answer to the goliath Porsche 911 which ruled the segment for a very long time. And we still believe that the 911 has even more long successful years to go on before getting defeated. One such car that may defeat the Porsche 911 will be the Mercedes-AMG GT. 

But what we have now is just the start of that and it will take years for Mercedes-AMG to attain the perfection and success of the 911 over all these years. The Mercedes-AMG GT is a very important car in that addition as it paves the way for the next decade of AMG GT models. And the AMG GT is undoubtedly a monstrous machine with lots of power and character which makes it so unique. 

Also, like Porsche, Mercedes-AMG has also now registered itself deep in motorsports thanks to the immense success they are having in Formula 1. These make the brand equally legendary and successful to Porsche because after all, customers want to get a car which means success and Mercedes-AMG is still on the rise. And do not get surprised to see a Mercedes-Benz in the list of exotic and glamorous cars. 

For starters, the GT is from Mercedes-AMG and not Mercedes-Benz. Automotive enthusiasts know that the word AMG means a force to reckon with. The AMG GT is also a great head turner for both of its looks and that growling exhaust sound which is simply harmony. So you will definitely regret driving this monster around the streets of Las Vegas.

Rolls-Royce Dawn

If it is about glamour and exoticness, then one simply can not rule out a Rolls-Royce. If you are not able to relate Rolls-Royce to those two words, you are sadly not an auto enthusiast or even a human on planet Earth. The Rolls-Royce Dawn was always a popular car in the segment thanks to its opulent nature and sexy design. 

Everyone would want one just by looking at it, that is how cool this car looks on the road. The Rolls-Royce Dawn is the one and only best choice in the segment if luxury is your highest concern. This is because like every other Rolls-Royce, the Dawn stays true to the Rolls-Royce nature of being hugely luxurious and comfortable. 

And if bespoke if what you want with your car makes it special and unique for yourself, there is no other car manufacturer in the world that can do it better than Rolls-Royce. Also, Rolls-Royce as expected from a British manufacturer is Bespoke. The one important aspect that makes the Rolls-Royce exotic is the fact that you simply can not get your hold on one even when you have lots of money. 

You have to earn the right to own one and drive one. So that is a manufacturer who wants its brand name always on the top even when selecting its customers. So it is pretty sure that the amount they put into making their cars is even more vigorous and extensive. I guess that sounds a lot exotic and glamorous than any other to drive on the roads of Las Vegas.
