$1.4mil Lamborghini Reventón

Jeff V. · Post by **Jeff V.** » Tue Sep 11, 2007 1:22 pm

Lamborghini has decided to do a car based on the LP640, yet priced significantly higher. This car is up in Veyron territory. Sadly, I'm not impressed. It's cool, but hardly $1,400,000 cool. It's an LP640 with a body kit and a fancy fighter jet inspired dashboard.

Maybe once they start actually producing it they'll decide to strap on a couple of turbo's or something

They're only building 20. I doubt there will be any turbos.

Well, it looks like pure sex on wheels. Its got the Bugatti beat on styling, but doesn't sounds like it will have the performance to match the $1.4 mil. price tag.

This is the one that FTV went to the meeting for, I do believe.

I think the car looks great, but the price is double what it should be. The Veyron is a much better value.

For $1.4mil you can have the greatest car ever made. Possibly the greatest car that ever will be made

Or you can have a stock performance LP640 with a body kit and an LCD dash. But you'll have the exclusivity of being 1 of only 20 owners.

Hmm. Tough choice

I'll build an LCD dash and install a TD05 kit for anybody for just 1/10th of the cost. Hell, I might even do it for 1/20th of the cost. Any takers?

How much for just the LCD dash?

It has to be skinnable. Like Winamp.

for 1.4 million I'd buy 70,000 blowjobs a lot sooner than I'd spend money on that car.

Why would I when I can pick up a ford GT for 300k and spend the next 700 thousand on slicks for the rest of my life, and the next 400,000 on a six car garage.

I suppose if I was a billionaire and just had filled up every charity with more money than they know what to do with, I might consider blowing a million five on this piece of crap.

No offense to all you fanatics, but there's just no fun in a car you can't tune.

Since when are Ford GT's 300K? You can probably find them for 100 - 125K all day long right now.

70,000 blowjobs?

In a row?

Yeah, I was about to say. I think my uncle got his for around $120k

That would kill you I'm pretty sure

At $20 each, mind you. Most blowjobs aren't worth even close to that, as women normally have no idea how to do it right.

$20...I think he's looking to get them from male dancers in Thailand at that rate

The point of buying this car isn't for the performance or anything, it's for being a unique piece of art. I don't think you buy 1.4mil cars to "tune" them, much like people buy old classics and other pieces of history. It's not because they are super fast or handle really well, it's because they are unique pices of useable art.

making 20 of these means they are designing it for the collector market, not the ultra-highend consumer market.

If they've already sold all 20 (and they probably have), then kudos to them. There is obviously a market for cars like these.
