Probably some of the most expensive Lamborghini models in existence today are the P538's, in fact this is a car that wasn't built at the Lamborghini factory but by one of the people who were there in the very early days, Mr. Giotto Bizzarrini himself.

The P538 was a purpose-built race car, and like the very successful Iso, a Chevrolet-powered car--the cylinder count and 5.3-liter (5.358, actually) displacement lent their name, with "P" for "posteriore," rear-engined.

It would get a little more complex when the first customer ordered his car to be equipped with a four litre version of the Bizzarrini designed Lamborghini V12.
