Lamborghini Reventon Roadster for Sale at $2 Million

Filed under: Wheels

The Lamborghini Reventon Roadster, a convertible version of the famed Italian marque's most coveted creation, has seen its price increase just a few weeks after it was unveiled at the Frankfurt Auto Show. Lamborghini announced that fewer than 20 and perhaps as little as 10 examples of the topless supercar (see video above) would be built, priced at €1.1 million or about $1.5 million. As with the original Reventon, however, it is thought that the limited edition Roadsters were quickly snapped up, and at least one early purchaser is already looking to turn a profit: a Reventon Roadster has now been listed for sale in Berlin via global online luxury marketplace JamesList for €1.45 million or $2.1 million. The car's 6.5 liter V12 engine pumps out 670 hp and can do 0 - 100 kph (62 mph) in just 3.4 seconds with a top speed of 205 mph.

2009 Frankfurt Auto Show: Lamborghini Reventon Roadster

Filed under: Wheels

How do you top the Lamborghini Reventon? The million-euro supercar – itself based on the already-extreme Murcielago – made its debut at the Frankfurt show two years ago, and almost immediately sold out its entire production run. This year Lamborghini returned with an even more enticing proposition: the Reventon Roadster.

The ultimate convertible Raging Bull upgrades on the Reventon coupe's fighter jet-inspired styling with an open-air body style, coupled to the same blueprinted 661hp 6.5-liter V12. Lamborghini will only make fewer than 20 examples, each carrying a $1.6 million price tag, so chances are these photos are the closest you'll ever get to seeing one.

Looks like it'll be an all-out supercar showdown next week at the Frankfurt Motor Show. In addition to the McLaren MP4-12C and the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG – not to mention the Ferrari 458 Italia – Lamborghini will reportedly be showing off the roadster version of its million-plus dollar Reventón.

Sporting the same stealth fighter-inspired angular bodywork as the standard Reventón that was unveiled two years ago at the same auto show, the new topless Lambo will reportedly make use of its all-wheel drive system to help the run to 60 in just 3.4 seconds. Top speed is expected to be well over 200 miles per hour, as you'd expect from an Italian supercar with a mid-mounted 650-horsepower V12 powerplant.

Stay tuned for live shots and official details as the festivities in Frankfurt draw ever closer, but in the meantime, be sure to check out our gallery of images below. Thanks to everyone for the tips!

Lamborghini Reventon Spyder to Debut in Frankfurt?

Filed under: Wheels

Rumors that Lamborghini will come out with a roadster version of its ultra-rare, €1 million carbon fiber Reventon supercar have been bruited about for a while. Now some more concrete reports have surfaced indicating a Reventon Spyder (rendering above) could be unveiled at the Frankfurt Motor Show in September. Limited to only 20 examples, the Reventon quickly sold out following its original announcement. It's said that the Reventon Spyder, based on the Murciélago LP670-4 SuperVeloce with a 670 hp V12 engine, will be even more exclusive, with a production run limited to only 9 examples. The price? A cool $1.6 million.

The Lamborghini Reventon In Flight

by Rigel Celeste (RSS feed) —

Filed under: Wheels, Wings

Talk about bizarre, Lamborghini recently enlisted the help of the Italian military (don't they have anything better to do?) to fly one of their rare and uber-expensive Lamborghini Reventon cars over the town of Turin and land it on the roof of the Lingotto building, where they were having a conference titled "Lamborghini and speed, a project in record time." And record money too I bet.

The only explanation Lamborghini gave to curious onlookers was "all 20 units (of the Reventon) have been sold worldwide." I guess that since they were each priced at over $1.5 million that is a big deal, but who came up with this idea?
