Automotive Faqs

Lamborghini is on a roll when it comes to bringing out the hot looking supercars that sets everyone to drooling with one glimpse. This new Lamborghini that has been spotted doesn’t seem to have a name yet(except what people have given it)but it deinitely has been getting enough attention.

It looks like an LP640 with a fighter jet-style camo paint job, complete with rivets and warnings like an arrow reading “HEAT” that points to the exhaust. There’s also a red star painted on the hood, which is intriguing because that was used to signify the Russian “Migs” way back when in Top Gun.

Lamborghini, along with many other noted automakers, have revealed one of their best supercars, the Reventon, at the Frankfurt Auto Show. The Reventon comes at a steep €1m and that doesn’t include tax. The design for this newest supercar was derived from the LP640.

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. It may only be powered by a 650bhp 6.5-litre V12, yet it’s still a road car, in name anyway. An LCD switches between a conventional dial-type display and a graphical version complete with a G-force meter.

When the 1974 exotic Countach was first released it became a popular vehicle that everyone wanted. What with the unusual styling, V-12 engine and the speed that it could travel who wouldn’t want it?

The Countach would eventually produce 420 horsepower with four-valve cylinder heads and go even faster. I once quickly accelerated from 75 mph to 150 mph in a friend’s Countach, and the car felt relaxed all the way, with great stability. The Countach’s basic body remained essentially unchanged throughout its career. Its pivoting doors opened up scissor-style, unlike conventional swing-up doors on some sports cars such as the DeLorean that made it hard to get out in tight parking spots.
