I've never had a problem with the Aventador shift, you just have to learn how to drive it smoothly.

Seems they're not struggling at all.

That hasn’t been any bar to interest, though - Lamborghini says the first two years of production is already spoken for.

I don't think anything you mentioned there will even slightly deter a potential buyer who would be in the market for one.

Maybe but I’m in the market for one and it deters me, maybe the flippers aren’t bothered, who knows..

Difficult for people not in the market for one to comment on their frame of mind.

I think with the excitement of a new flagship Lambo it’s difficult to gauge, most (including myself) haven’t seen it in the flesh and there’s also many haters that will just hate anyway, we’ll see I guess..

I think all this talk of the car being "sold out" is marketing garbage. My dealer told me the same and said the order books are closed but said "if you are quick" we can get you one. A friend was told exactly the same by Craig at Pangbourne - can get him one for 2025.

It's the same with every new launch. SF90 were sold out too. Until they weren't. You'll wait two years maybe but will get one.

"two years" has become a standard salesman's opening line

long enough to imply strong residuals and justify charging over list price for used cars
not too long so as to turn people away

second line is don't share this, but i might be able to do you a favour and get you into a car next summer...

Same, 2 years for an STO! Oh hang on! We have a slot available..

I can also get a Revulto delivery for july from my local dealer (europe)

The configurator is live now as well.

I really like the car. The interior looks like a good step up too imo.

Looks so bloody long - speedtail vibes!

This is a classic and was also recently used on me.....and it worked hahaha!!

[TP321]

Give it a year and see what you can pick up one used for - i am sure they will be plenty around in this climate of 10% APR car finance.

July 2024?

I deal with HR Owen London and they told me there's not many Revuelto coming to the UK. Could be dealer talk.

They told me the same...".. books are 3x covered and everyone has left £40k on the off-chance they get a cancellation slot".

On a non-limited run car, it seems improbable that's the case, albeit not implausible...

It’s nothing but dealer bullst as others and I have said there are cars available!

I’ve got a feeling, that the price will ensure that there’s going to be reasonable availability…
Anyone got any info on what it’s going to be?

Thanks..

The reason I commented was that C&D has it priced around $890k! I suspect that’s probably wrong?

I spoke to someone at that dealership who told me 2026 / 2027.

I was told the same. The owners who received an invite for the preview will be getting the early cars and we all know they're going to be selling them for huge profits.

I was also told that if you want a roadster or a SV variant you'll need to own the coupe first. This is not a dealer thing but instead it's coming directly from the factory.
