Lamborghini Veneno, a $4 million supercar


Recommended Posts

Of all the world's supercar makers, none stretch the idea of an ultimate sports machine quite so far as Lamborghini. For its 50th anniversary, the Italian automaker has created its most bizarre car yet: Meet the Veneno, a $4 million alien craft that will be assembled for only three buyers who've already put down their deposits ? and being sold out before it goes into production is only a hint of the Veneno's speed.

Built from the Aventador chassis, Lamborghini says the Veneno was designed to come as close as possible to a Le Mans-quality race car that's still usable on public roads. Power comes from a 740-hp version of the Aventador's 6.5-liter V-12 linked to a 7-speed automated manual transmission and permanent all-wheel-drive, good for a top speed of 220 mph and 60 mph in less than three seconds.

Named for a Spanish fighting bull that killed a toreador in 1914, the Veneno uses carbon fiber everywhere, from the tweaked Avendator chassis to the body and interior controls. Even the wheels wear a carbon fiber ring that Lamborghini claims acts like a vortex to shunt air toward the brakes for cooling.

The three copies of the monster from Sant'Agata Bolognese that Lamborghini plans to build will have red, white, or green touches to match the Italian flag; technically, there will be four copies including the test model Lamborghini plans to hold onto. With two of the buyers hailing from the United States, the Veneno will soon enter the rarefied realm of personalized exotic cars.

Is that actually a reason? :s

I cant stop thinking this design might appeal to rich men who also thought Transformers was a good movie.

Lamborghini is my fav brand, but this one is ugly as fk, man. It probably has a godly engine, but it really looks bad.

This is sexy, the Veneno is not.

Wow that is hideous - the front and back is overly over designed for the sake of over design. This seriously looks like something a 10 year old would design.

No only one the other prob europe or China. To be even considered to buy one of these you have to have purchased Lambos in the past and be on the VIP list. Beiber is not. Same with the new Ferrari. These limited editions are super hard to get even if you have the cash at hand. It is for the elite crowd only.

OT.,...When I was in dubai there was a sheik i was working with that gave ferraris to his children as gifts and he still could not be on the list for the new enzo. Not one ferrari as a gift.....a ferrari every YEAR.
