The Lamborghini Reventón Roadster

reventon_roadster_02

Excess and Lamborghini go hand and hand.  Though I still prefer the classic and sophisticated lines of the Ferrari, the other Italian automaker still creates an intimidating beast of a car.  There is something primal about a Lamborghini — it is a swirling mess of super-ego and id raging on two axels. 

The V-12 supercar looks like an attack vehicle from the future. ”The 6.5 liter, 12-cylinder mill puts out 662 horsepower. The car does 0 to 62 mph in 3.4 seconds. It tops out at 205 mph,” according to Wired Magazine.  “But the most important number is 20. As in that’s precisely how many Lamborghini will build.”   

Which means you probably have to know a few people and have $1.6 million dollars to shell out for it.

Lambo Tractor

You learn something new everyday: Ferruccio Lamborghini started out building tractors and only got into the sportscar business to piss off Enzo Ferrari.  I still prefer to classic styling of the Ferrari over the Lamborghini, for whatever reason I associate the Lambo with meatheads from South Beach.That’s not always the case, of course, but generally my gut reaction.

Imagine being a farm boy from Iowa and driving the Lamborghini Toro out to the fields everyday.  Yowzas.  The concept was created by Canadian designer Jason Battersby.  [via Clusterflock]
