It’s a Lamborghini Reventon

written by John Chow on December 10, 2007

Profit from binary options

A few readers have noticed the new car running in my header and wonder what it was. Even before this blog got redesigned by Nate Whitehilll, I have been using a Pagani Zonda F for the header image. The new car is the 2008 Lamborghini Reventon. Congrats to Steven Truong and Affiliate Unleashed for getting it right. For those who thought it was a Ferrari or Bugatti, shame on you.

The Lamborghini Reventon is the wildest Lamborghini ever produced. Only 20 examples will be made and all have been spoken for. The price, if you have to know, is 1 Million Euro (plus taxes). That works out to $1.4 million CAD and probably $1 Billion US with the US exchange rate going into the toilet. The above photo was taken at the Lamborghini museum. Here are some more photos and a couple of videos.

Coooool! I love this shapes of Lamborghini so modern and amazing.

It seems like this beast has a lot of smoke coming out of the backend :)

That's a really amazing car. Amazing. That should stay as your header.

dunno, it probably costs a s**tload of money. Taking this into account, I'd be REALLY (read it: way too) careful when driving this car on the street. I don't actually know how it is in America, but this car is NOT suitable for Romania. Why? Several reasons: first, most of the roads here suck, and the tyres would be destroyed in no time. Secondly, there are lots of drivers that go like crazy, with high speed, in town, on narrow streets - therefore, the risk of getting your car trashed is huge :). And trashing this precious would break anyone's heart. Oh and third: such a car would attract the attention of thieves, which are plenty in Romania. (oh well, yes, not a very good advertisement for my country, but heck it's true)

It's a great looking car from the front...but that's it. It looks terrible from all other angles unless your idea of style is riding around in a Stealth Bomber.

Wow this car if I like! :shock:

I'm sure it's lovely. But it is hideous.

It's hideous?! It's a work of art, the best looking Lambo yet.

Wow, ill take 2 of those!

sweet looking Lambo. Now if only it came in yellow it would be on my blog too.

Hi James, you can find the yellow lamborghini pictures at Lamborghini Gallardo.

I love the Lamborghini Reventon! and looks great on your blog John.

Steve

That's awful! Although I suppose if you build and sell Lambo's for a living you can afford to let them sit out in the rain and snow every once and awhile :)

Disturbing news... I work down the block form a Lamborghini / Bentley dealer (Paul Miller), and they always have a few million dollars in inventory sitting outside. They now what I believe is a Lamborghini Gallardo Spyder (soft top, bright yellow) sitting out there... Even in the snow and feezing rain! Gaaahhhhh!! Protect that thing, for the love of Jebus!

nice car I like to wish Santa give this car as Christmas gift & include me in those lucky 20 :mrgreen:

edit : Santa read above wish - he can grant my wish :oops: but he says he needs donations :twisted:

That's possibly the nicest car I've ever seen. One of these days....

Anyone else looking forward to the day John puts this up in a contest?

Gorgeous car, loved it when I first saw it on Top Gear.
I'll take two please! :smile:

Chris

nice car, but the bugatti is the best street legal production car i mean a w16 cylinder car, and fastest car cant beat that. if you can afford this i'm sure another 500k wont be nothing for a bugatti. check out my blog for slr mclaren brabus pictures.

really nice car, best lambo ever but a bugatti is was more superior, faster and looks nicer and i mean come on a w16 cylinder engine, can't beat that. check out my Auto Blog, i got nice pictures of the new convertible slr mclaren from Brabus. www.CARversation.com

Good looking :)

who's good looking? me? Oh, i thought so too...lol...

sorry, i have this disease where i have to be on top of the commentator list... i think john gave it to me...

Its the nicest Lamborghini ever produced and they are only limiting the amount they are making...shame its such a nice car :razz:

maybe that's why it's worth so much, not the car, they make so little of them and hike the prices so only the really really rich buys them. and the cycle continues... what's new?

THe alloys on it are pretty bad ass

I need to get myself one of them :D

Well, whatever car it is, it is freakin' sweet. If any of you care to get me an X-Mas gift, here you go. :grin:

What a sissy car. Give me my 75 AMC Pacer...... now that's a car.
hahahaha

Seriously.... that is a dream car... I would be hard pressed to choose that or a Bugatti Veyron.......

I just thought this car and the ferrari limited edition FXX is just cool.

I must have one. Time to get into ultra mega blogging mode :razz:

BTW...John Chow, what kind of a car do you drive...curious what a self proclaimed Dot Com Mogul drives? It's not a Toyota Camry is it? :smile:

From what I understand he drives an Acura.

Has Nate changed his last name to "Whiltehead"? :grin:

I think what's most inspiring about Lamborghini is their ability to both evolve, design on the edge, but continue to maintain a style that is easily identifiable. What an incredible machine. It looks as though it could suck the pavement right off the road.

Thanks for sharing it, John!

wow I'm speechless, great looking car

Too bad that it looks more like a stealth fighter then a real italian sports car, but maybe that's a sign that the germans are in charge now :neutral:

But then again, Lamborghini never made sleek italian design cars, only the Miura comes to mind.

thats a slick looking automobile. niiiiiiiiice!

Thats a beauty! 20 Rich kids will be showing off on the streets soon!

what the! :shock: ... 30 yrs.. of blogging still i can't afford that..worst, its obsolete..

Wait, 30 years of bloggin? Blogging has not existed for more than 10 years! maybe you thought of the technology before huh?

Thanks for the link John! :)

I follow Lambo's because I'd love to eventually buy one. :)

Someone on Ferrari Chat has #4 out of 20. I'll try to buy it from him used down the road... :grin:

Checking to see if my Gravatar will show up.

Does that badge look like a Bughatti or a Ferrari?!?! Oh my goodness.

How long until you buy one?

Does this mean we have to change our header too ? :shock:
