New Lambo

http://www.autoblog.com/2007/09/11/frankfurt-motor-show-the-lamborghini-reventon-revealed/

Looks good. Definitely for the person who ISN'T worried about bang for the buck performance.

Not much of a fan.

Recipe:
- 1 Murcielago
- Add a little F-22 Raptor
- A pinch of Caddy's Art and Science
- An extra dash of over stylized

What you get...

Probably look best in black. Some aspects are nice but overall not enough to outweigh the ugly.

And the RCS is 50% less than the LP640 too!

that image reminds me of a face in transformers...
not sure which one, but one of them...

Looks uber fugly to me. :yuck:

only 20 being built and they are all sold already.

Wonder how long it will take before the first story comes out of someone wrecking theirs...lol

I sorta like it. Black would be best.

I think its pretty cool and I see alot of F22 in there. I like the CTS/ Camaro rear lines..

Kinda like waiting for the wings to hinge out of the doors and flames to shoot out of the back.

I love it...But...

The gauge cluster/dash design is not what it was cracked up to be. I was expecting some super-high tech HUD-type stuff, and they come out with an LCD instrument cluster? What? This stuff was way overhyped. I saw a dude do that in a Toyota a few years ago.

Same drivetrain as the murcielago? WTF? You'd think they could add some FI for that price, atleast. They should have bumped up the power to atleast 800hp, hell, its got AWD...

BUT:

It looks so damn cool. I don't think any amount of horsepower could bring the performance up to match the looks...

High performance cars have always followed fighter aircraft design. I've been waiting for someone to let the F-22 rub off on them.

I don't know if it's worth the price as it's not that much better than the LP640. I do like the style but is the carbon fiber body kit worth double the Murcielago?? But I guess that's not an issue for those whom can buy it to add to the Enzo and Veyron.

It does look like a Decepticon though and maybe that's worth it. Will look good on posters and calendars for years to come.

As for the car, my initial reaction was "Murcielago with decreased polygon count" but after checking out the gallery, it looks pretty nice. Very limited run and only for the uber-rich. Who knows, maybe we'll catch some dumb celebutante driving it into a tree some day...

It's got 660 HP, which is 80 HP more than the standard Murcielago and 20 more than the Murcielago LP640.

I just love the name... "Reventon" in spanish is like all this words put together: "a huge crazy party, bursting out, someone breaking something". I guess if you put this all together you get the experience of driving that thing???

I would like to see black as well...

Or it is just the name of a bull that killed a matador back in the day.

I've always thought Lambos looked so cool. This one is no exception.

Yeah its design is way, way over the top. But it shouldn't make any apologies for it. If I'm spending that much coin on an exotic, I'd sure as heck want it to stand out. :D

All the overhyped bling junkies won't agree, but that car in flat black would be just badass.

batmobile

I sorta like it. Black would be best.

Unfotunately, you won't see it in black.


Reventón will be offered in only one, exclusive color: an opaque green-grey, also called Reventón. It’s a metallic paint with an unusual matte finish in contrast to the high shine finish common to most vehicles. The matching wheels have carbon rims screwed to aluminum spokes.

yes... it is named after the bull.... but that's what Reventon means in spanish, all of the things I said... don't worry is a latin thing. :p

Guess my first stop will be at the paint shop to spray on some gloss clearcoat. Why would anyone want a flat finish on a car?

that is one awesome car..
