    Fantastic design. Glad to see Lambo doing some exploring.

    Now if you could just take out Batman and put in me with Heidi Klum we'll be all set!

    The lines are perfect 'stealthish' though not pedestrian-friendly. It must be an outstanding car, but a black point goes for not increasing the performance.

    This is what the interior reminds me of:

    lol

    Looks mean and I would surely buy this one over the Veyron. This one actually looks like a million bucks.

    What is special about this? Nothing in particular. No stunning power figures. No record-breaking capabilities. Nothing new in terms of technological advances. It's a barely worked-over LP640 with a trick interior.

    The Bugatti may not be the most beautiful thing in the world, but in terms of automotive historical markers it proves its worth. The Reventon does not.

    But that's exactly the point. Forget about the perfomance (which I'm sure it'll be adequate anyway), this car scares people to death. Which is just what Lamborghini should do. This thing is thrilling, the feel it gives cannot be translated into words. The Veyron on the other hand is just some numbers. And you should see the new "Pur Sang" version...

    QFTMFT - I like this kitted up LP640 ok, it just doesn't command a million+ IMO...

    I'm not saying it's not a great car. I'm not saying it doesn't look fantastically pissed off. But, that's NOT worth $1M.

    And who pays $1M for "adequate" performance?

    Well there's something else. Next to this a Veyron is common.

    Perhaps it's a tad overpriced, altough at this price point who cares, but if I had the money I'd buy one.

    By the way adequate as in 211mph and 0-62mph in 3"4 seconds.

    What you are paying for, is exclusivity, IMO this is a beautiful machine, but it doesn't worth 1 million (in perfonmence and looking), but if there are only 20 units, there always be someone willing to pay them.
    Life is too short to stay, race!

    Gora Euskadi! Visca Catalunya!

    Spectacular... not at all what i expected. Clearly based on the Murcielago, but it is absolutely stunning. This is exactly why i love Lamborghini. Hats off to everyone involved.

    If anyone went to the motorshow and has a brochure for it (sometimes they do concept brochure/press releases), please PM me . I'm in love, this equals the Zonda F at the top of my favourite cars list.

    a modern take on Countach?...

    Don't particularly like the look, though I am sure even if it costs twice as much there will be people buying it....

    BTW, are those actually pic(1st and 2nd sets) or rendering? The car looks so out of this world that I can't quite tell....

    I think they are renders.
