RE: Lamborghini Aventador goes topless

Just love the outlandish looks of that thing and can imagine the sound of the v12 on a tunnel run

[Repent]

Anyone with a coupé is going to be at the very least, considerably miffed...

[bobberz]

I'd much rather have this than the coupe. Should be glorious any time you drive through a tunnel! Glad they went with a hard "targa" configuration this time. Every time I see a Murcielago roadster with the top on, it is blatantly obvious it was an afterthought! Never seems to fit quite right and ruins the lines of one of the best looking modern Lambos. Weren't you limited in top speed with the top up, too? Not that anybody needs to go 210MPH or whatever the Murci did...

[Leggy]

Saw a hard top parked outside the Monte Carlo Casino this Summer. Looked fab. Outrageous styling that only Lamborghini can get away with!

[r1ch]

That thing is jaw dropping, amazing.

MEH.

I'm sure it sounds wonderful but what would you do with such a thing.

[Jaged]

Oh Yesss!

[SpeckledJim]

Lovely car. Crap photography. Not a single one gives a proper idea of what it actually actually looks like.

Worship it, sleep with it parked next to the bed, take photographs of it, lick it (given that it looks gorgeous and will sound gorgeous, surely it must taste DIVINE?), and if the weather forecast permits... drive it.

Some people aren't voting "10", they are to have their memberships terminated (with extreme prejudice)

[MrGeoff]

Wow, utterly stunning!

[Auxois]

Can't see why any enthusiast would choose this over the McLaren, well, except for the exhaust note perhaps.


Seems to be a car for posers and/or new-rich Russians.


Great engine though, shame about it being 4WD.

answered it here yourself - Vtwelfe!!!
Mc Laren made the mistake of giving the new supercar the same engine as the midrange - I don't care how fast it goes its all about feeling at this end of the market (objective people wold by an an evo/m3 type thingy)

[zebede]

Standard wheels look better than the ones pictured, anyone else agree?

[tino2479]

would break your heart having to attach a UK standard numberplate to that wonderful nose.

[Wadeski]

that's....really something. wow.

I'm sorry, but I'm afraid this isn't the website for you .

[LaurasOtherHalf]

Can't help thinking it would be a simply wonderful way to spend a few weeks touring southern France & northern Italy in one.

But then I also can't help thinking there'll be virtually no luggage space in the damn thing.

I tell you what I'd spend at least 5 minutes doing.... then I'd spend a couple of hours cleaning it - that stuff really eats into the paintwork...

Brilliant riposte to Ferrari who don't yet make an F12 spider nor made a 599 spider either.

Ferrari did the SA Aperta which is essentially a 599 GTO Spider but given it had such a limited run I take your point.

You could try driving it?
