I snagged this from another board.  I normally don’t drool over cars, but this one deserves some serious sexy time.  Holy Crap!  Does someone have a couple of million laying around that I can borrow?

Lamborghini 4 EVER.  Ferrari can fuck off. 

Seems Countach inspired...trying to get a little more radical on current designs.

I kind of wish this was the next Batmobile.

Apparently, the Reventon is powered by a 650bhp 6.5-litre V12.  Does 0-100kmh (~60mph) in 3.4 seconds.  All of the car’s off-the-wall styling are fully functional, says Lambo, with massive air intakes required to cool the beast’s engines and brakes.  An LCD switches between a conventional dial-type display and a graphical version complete with a G-force meter.  Even if you do have a spare million euros floating around you’ll be hard pushed to get your hands on a Reventon: all 20 of the cars that will be produced have been sold to friends of Lamborghini.

Actually it was inspired by modern fighter jets like the F-22 Raptor and the F-35 Lightning II.  Other than the “stealth geometry” body, the gunmetal gray paint and the updated interface technology, it’s essentially a Murcielago LP640.

But yeah, it’s damn sexy.  I’m usually the first to ridicule those who would spend this sort of money on a car, but this one is nothing short of art.  Too bad there will only be a limited production run.  Actually, too bad I didn’t make the invite list.

Oh well… THIS is the upper limit of what I’m willing to spend on a car, anyway.

If I ever was going to get busted for Grand Theft Auto, I’d definitely make sure this was the car I was borrowing.

So, anyone up for a trip to Italy? Definitely not a one man job, LoL.

Word on the street is most of the invitees are in the US, and none of the invitees (so far) have turned Lamborghini down (as if, it’s an automatic classic with its exclusivity).

My advice would be to “borrow” it in the US.  Half of our police force is serving in Iraq as part of National Guard deployments.  What few police we have are too busy tracking down violent offenders to worry about car thieves.  Prison overcrowding, thanks in part to the Puritanical criminalization of certain substances and offenses, will ensure that if you do get caught you will not have to serve your sentence.  What little time you do spend in jail will be spent watching cable television, e-mailing your friends, working out, eating three squares a day and receiving free healthcare.

Oli, the Tesla is actually a pimp little ride.  It may not have the throaty roar of a traditional internal combustion powered vehicle, but it is a Lotus Elise with a well done Li+ conversion.  Science can be sexy.
