    (KXAN) - Green is the theme at this year's North American auto show in Detroit. Car makers from around the world are showing off their latest models. Hybrid and electric cars dominated the press preview, and even made a solid showing among luxury models.

    Luxury car makers have plenty of eye candy. One of the hottest is the new Lamborghini 560-4 Spyder which comes with a $300,000 price tag. Another must-see is the newly designed Bentley Continental GTC. This car can go from zero to 60 in just 4.5 seconds and has every accessory imaginable.

    It can be yours for $230,000. The North American International Auto Show opens to the public on Jan. 17.
