Here’s something made especially for you, drifter boy: Tuesday at a Culver City, Calif., warehouse near the Los Angeles Auto Show, Lamborghini unveiled the Huracán LP 580-2, a rear-wheel drive version of its popular Huracán supercar. While this version looks the same as its $240,000 OG sibling, its novel two-wheel-drive configuration will allow the power sliding and drifting that are impossible with the standard all-wheel drive version.

It's made for those who truly love Lamborghini but want something a little more accessible, said company head Stephan Winkelmann. "This showcases how we are moving as Lamborghini and how we are investing in our future."
