Aventador Roadster

[Lambo FirstBlood]

Anyone know anything? Speculation or rumour?

Surely, we can't have another daft roof like like the Murcie. Electric fabric roof, I would have thought

Answers on a postcard.

Hopefully it will be another daft roof, don't want Lamborghini to lose all insanity

[ZOLLAR]

I'm sure there was a 'shopped picture of one recently, it looked very nice

I've heard that it will have a removable, stowable 'hard' carbon fibre panel.

What with the delays of the coupe deliveries, mine's not due now until Q4 2012,pushed back from Q2, I'm thinking about shifting my deposit to a roadster.

What do you think?

Deposit both, sell the coupe for a profit once the roadster is ready?

Sounds like a plan

I heard a while back that it would be a carbonfibre roof panel so that sounds right

There's a reason they removed the window frames...

Any idea when the roadsters out?

Go for the roadster, just for the hell of it! If you've got the means, enjoy yourself in the wildest and most sensational car you can get your hands on.

If the roadster does have a removable hard top panel, hopefully Lambo will have the wit to find a way of allowing it to be transported in the car. I know the Koenigsegg isn't to everyone's tastes but I honestly think it's got the simplest and most logical means of removing the roof - presumably because it was designed from the start to be both coupe and roadster. Contrast this with the likes of the Zonda, Veyron Grand Sport and even Murcielago roadster - vehicles made topless after being designed primarily as hard top coupes, and with roof arrangements that aren't quite sensible. For instance, with the Veyron, you've got a removable panel that can't be stowed in the car!

i heard it is to have two removable roof panels a la stag, that'll fit in the boot

On a slightly different tack folks, I have been reading this month’s "Car" magazine and Georg Kacher the well respected German car journo has said that Lamborghini are struggling with the fit and finish on the Aventador. I have not heard this before; does anyone know anything about this?
