Nothing says "What recession?" like a $221,000 Italian two-seater with a briefcase-size trunk and a soft top that's best left permanently retracted. Look past the price tag and appreciate the new Gallardo LP 560-4 for its sheer beauty. Its expertly angled body is a credit to the auto-design artisans in Sant'Agata Bolognese, and features include a brand-new rear end, LED lighting, and refined air diffusers that clamp the 3,417-pound machine to the roadway. The car even comes with a pedestrian-detection system—though a top speed of 201 mph means foot travelers are better off simply staying inside. Ian Daly
