So they took the 640, flattened out all the swoopy bits, and stole design cues from the F117 Stealth Fighter. Better perform like hell - the looks are just okay.

Oh good! An Italian Vector.

How long until we see an Orange County Choppers version?

All kidding aside, I cant quite agree with the gaping-hole grilles on either side of the front...

I think I'm gonna have a nightmare tonight involving this car and a parking lot full of doomed cattle.

For some reason it makes me think "heavily modified Ford Focus".

@Triborough: It's the headlights.

I sure hope it transforms into an autobot. It's already got the name for it.

You're all farking nuts. It's pure sinister evil. I'll take one in black please.

I just noticed the pyramid shaped tach and speedo. How very KITT.

Ahhhhh……Must be cool to be rich and dumb. Paris Hilton ordered one in baby pink.

Y'know, I love the old-school Marcello Gandini/Bertone look, but Lambo really needs to either go whole hog down that road or find another one. These endless half-assed rehashes of the Countach are getting kind of stale.

They need something as different from the Countach (and as completely wild) as the Countach was from the Miura.

I feel like I just took a shot of Ipecac. The interior is nice though.

Be interesting to see what the wind tunnel numbers look like with all those flat, planar surfaces.
@jacflash:
Gotta agree - It's getting a little long in the tooth.

Curves are the Devil's Tool!

Honestly, this seems appropriately Lambo...questionable taste that you feel kinda dirty for liking...but can't stop liking.

Also: matte green is the new black.

For half that price I'll make up a Fiero based kit car for anybody???? Come on you can be the proud owner of #21.

This is the kind of design only Lamborghini gets away with: The bastard lovechild of Batman's tumbler and a Murcielago.

I don't get the name though... I thought all Lambo's were named after famous bulls...

Reventon sounds like a boarding school...

Am I the only one surprised to find that this thing is going to put power to the ground through some sort of auto or sequential manual type of gearbox?

so the VW/Audi guys come up with the $1 million plus Veyron and now this thing?
mind you I love Lambos but how is this THAT much better than the 640??still its pretty evil looking

heres a photo of it:

@Racingindrag:

from the Pop Mech article "We shouldn't be surprised that Lamborghini's new ultra-elite supercar shares its name with a bull-this one famous for the 1943 death of legendary matador Felix Guzman in Mexico. "

This should be the answer for the QOTD: "What would the Predator drive?"

I really want to know what it does different than the LP640 that someone would pay 1 million euros for it. At least for the Veyron for your million you get something that's radically different from anything else on the road, and with the capabilities and technological prowess to make the money at least kind of worth it.

i know - it must be impervious to radar! that's why it's worth a million euros- it's the first supercar that you can actually use without getting caught!

Oh! It's got those zig-zaggy lines just like a stealthy F-117, F-35 or B2-bomber! You know, to help foil enemy radar! ...LOL

The "Crushed Paper" look returns.

@AGrogan: A clutch can be such a bitch to deal with when you've got a fabulous pair of heels on...

Anyways, this is still the coolest looking Lamborghini in about 15 years, which deserves some props.

Jesus Christ, hell on 4 wheels.

Bet you its invisible to police radar and all speed traps, AMEN

In a few days, someone will upload an origami Lamborghini Reventon and it will look EXACTLY like the real thing.

Lamborghini Reventon - Inspired by Origami.

I love it. It's what supercars should look like.

Forget what the predator would drive... I know that-without a doubt-Frank Ghery would roll in this.

@superbmtsub:
Atleast its not the Alar...

I was hoping this would be Veyron based instead of a just a pimped Murcielago, but I'm sure there are people out there paying huge money for Lambos pimped by aftermarket companies; at least this is authentic (and looks pretty decent).

@goatrope: Lambo and Vector were owned by the same company for a while in the '90s.

That is the sexiest "Oh Shit" handle of any car. Ever.

Just when I thought the LP640 was one of the top hypercars of all time, this explosive piece drops. The camo poo green just sets it perfectly somehow.

They are taking the p*ss surely. The Murcielago was already looking dated and now they give it shoulder pads and a Missile Command dashboard. Its shocking. I was expecting a cross between a Zonda and the Caparo.

its a devilized murcielago!!!
really looks mean.. it`s like the darth vadder of cars!!!!

get me one in black.. and an ejector seat..just in case...

at least it's doing what a supercar is supposed to and making you a.) fall in love with it and want 3 of them or b.) a little sick to the stomach, in that 2 a.m. Jack in the Box sort of frustrated at the bad burger but still satisfied a little, but running to the bathroom angry sort of way.

I keep expecting the tail lights to blink or something.

Wonder if general Patton would drive it?

@JackIrish:

I could easily see Patton making this by taking a Panzer engine, some spare F117A panels and turning 4 rear rotors from some Blackhawks into wheels with melted down Hummer treads for the tires, to go along with his personally-created uniforms.

G-meter eh? The Sentra SE-R Spec V i had a while back had one too. Cept the one in the Lambo prolly costs more than the entire Sentra.

A million Euros tho? I dont even see any diamonds encrusted into the shifter knob or jewels in the dashboard

Filed under: Frankfurt Auto Show, Sports/GTs, Euro, Supercars, LamborghiniClick image for high-res galleryThe Volkswagen Group threw a major shindig in Frankfurt earlier tonight at which it showed off all the new wares its introducing to the public at the Frankfurt show beginning tomorrow.

@danio3834: my motorbike had a G meter called Judy. Every time I pulled high g's on a corner she would smack me in the back of the head or the kidneys. It worked for perceived excessive speed too.

This is the bastard child of KITT and Batmans's Tumbler....

isn't the looks more like Gallardo?
the front seems to look like that, but anyways, the greenish metallic look surely adds to the evilness, no doubt it will be a "must have" for the rich and dumbs.

Wow, a gauge to track G forces? Why that's positively unprecedented and must have cost half the price of that car!

@danio3834:

There are three approaches to making something super-dee-dooper expensive:

1. Encrust it with jewels and precious metals. See that fifty thousand dollar MP3 player a couple years back made out of some POS which would probably cost 50 bucks or less now.

2. Pack it full of cutting-edge technology, and engineer the fuck out of it.

3. Establish a brand name that people will pay a lot of money for...whether or not there's anything to it, even if it's only for the sake of spending a lot of money so as to differentiate themselves from those who cannot.

It seems this car is a little of #2 and a little of #3.

This looks like some bizarre 80's version of what 2007 was supposed to look like.

@sardonicbastard:

I'm waiting for Time Cop cars.

in all seriousness, what do people do with cars like this? they don't really track them, do they? do most cars this pricey end up being cruised up and down to show off in front of other rich people, or do a significant number live fulfilling lives being flogged on twisty roads like they should be?

@optic:
I'll take two. One for my place in Dubai and one for my place in Monaco. They both must be yellow. And HAMANN, if you are listening, when will body kits be available for this vehicle?

I keep thinking it says Reggaeton or Reventaron. Reventaron means burst in Spanish. I'm certain we'll see this wrecked alongside the Audi R8 in the streets of Moscow very soon. [englishrussia.com]

Unless you are building a car to homologate for competition, anything with a production run of just 20 is bound to be a coach-job. Cause $20 million Euros doesn't buy all that much of a development program.

This doesn't seem terrible, but it's just a buzz item. I would like to see some innovative design language from Lambo... maybe this is a stopgap for their next project.
