Monster speedster
The Lamborghini Aventador LP 570-4 Superveloce Roadster is special and it’s not just the name. At 1,575 kg, it is 50 kg lighter than the coupe. The 6.5-litre V12 engine brings power-to-weight ratio to a stunning 476 PS per tonne. Top speed is 350 kmph and 0 to 100 kmph flashes past in 2.9 seconds. The four-wheel drive car with adaptive pushrod suspension and a dynamic steering system should also corner rather well. The top? Carbon fibre, under 6 kg and it fits into the luggage compartment.
Rush your order in, only 500 will be made.
