Yoenis Cespedes’ latest spring training ride: A $300K Lamborghini (pic)
Yoenis Cespedes has been using the first few days of New York Mets spring training as his own personal auto show. For his latest showstopping arrival, the slugger rolled into the Tradition Field parking lot in Port St. Lucie, Fla., on Wednesday in a $300,000 Lamborghini Aventador (and that’s the price tag before customization).

As noted in a tweet by MLB.com’s Anthony DiComo, the sweet and pricey ride has been tailored exclusively for Cespedes.

Cespedes’ morning unveiling of his latest luxury ride has started to attract quite the attention as people are now congregating in the parking lot to wait for his daily arrival.
On Sunday, Cespedes showed up at the facility in a custom Ford F-250 truck with monster truck-sized wheels. And while the pickup truck and the Lambo are awe-inspiring automobiles, Cespedes’ choice of vehicle on Tuesday may be difficult to top:
A custom red and gray Avorza Polaris Slingshot.
