Hmmm, it looks a bit too fussy to me and doesn't appear to wear the SV stamp which I love on the Murci, it won't live with the cheaper and faster Mac. LT

The UK Recommended Retail Price is £315078 so £55668 more than the "Standard" Aventador LP700-4. We are are at the Geneve Show from this Thursday to Sunday with Automobili Lamborghini, so first opportunity to see and present to customers who have already ordered and visitors to the Lamorghini Stand.

So £350k will be about right with a few options.

Hate the wheels on the geneva car. Quite like the rest. I'd have that beam on the front wing in carbon or black, definitely not in body colour...

I think I prefer the DMC wing over the lambo one so far.

All in all, really like the car but a manual 670 SV would be my preference!

They are the option wheel, diones are the standard on SV, I also think they look rubbish, way to fussy.

I can't help thinking the guy doing the voice over sounds a bit wet. Should have got Brian Blessed involved.

Does anyone know how many SV s are going to be produced? Is it going to be a small number like the Murci SV..

Back from Geneva yesterday night.

So the SV...in the flesh? It's awesome - the pictures on the internet do it no justice at all. I'm not sure if the front has been "fine tuned" - it looks brutal and in keeping with the SV moniker.

It's difficult to say exactly how the show cars Rossa Bia will look outside of the show stand - but I suspect it will look pretty spectacular - particularly if you pay attention to speccing the car with the appropriate complimentary items (i.e. the Wheel centres can be had either Black or Red, for example). I suspect there will also be some Ad Personum (or Ad Nausium!) options which will make this a very special car.

I have heard both rumours that this will be limited - and equally that it won't be! Im guessing on 600 Coupes - whether or not they can build that many remains to be seen. Not forgetting the recently seen spy shots of the alleged SV roadster - which I think will be fantastic - but will be the first SV with a roof......and have no idea when the SV roadster will be released.

All in all - it's a hit!

According to Maurizio Reggiani, head of R&D,
"The Aventador SV won't be a limited edition automobile with special number plate.
It will be treated like a new third-model. Perhaps this is a lesson learned from the past Super Veloce. The original production plan of the last SV, the LP 670-4 Murcielago, was scheduled for 350 cars. However only 186 were produced."

Agreed - I was on the stand today, and it is very impressive in the flesh. Never thought I'd buy an Adventador but could definitely be tempted.

I quite like it simply because of the tyre on the back

Pirelli PZERO Corsa 355/25 ZR21

355/25.

That's a proper mans tyre width. It's on a 13 inch width wheel music

I finally received a phone call from Lamborghini HQ USA after sending them an email asking how many SVs were going to be produced. The answer I have been told is - "there is no official number" i.e it will be a regular production car. Not sure how this will affect the price knowing thousands could be produced rather than keeping it special with limited numbers.

Saw this yesterday - that's pretty quick! I'm looking at the steering, and I'm guessing that the car in the video has dynamic steering? frown

Every Journo HATES this steering on any form of VW (sorry) Audi/Lambo product, so why do they insists on having it as an option? why can't they just remove it if it is such a bad thing?
