Number 20 of only 20 produced, this 2008 Lamborghini Reventón is among the most exclusive, radical automobiles the company has ever built, the boldest of statements coming as it does from the folks who brought you the Miura, the Countach and the Diablo. Named in the Lamborghini tradition after the fighting bull that killed famed bullfighter Felix Guzman in 1943, the Reventón was Lamborghini’s answer to such designer one-offs as the Pininfarina Ferrari P4/5 and Maserati GS Zagato.
Not wanting to wait for an outside design house to steal its thunder, the company decided to issue its own special, in the process producing the first car to be totally designed by the Centro Stile Lamborghini in Sant' Agata, as well as the first Lamborghini modeled entirely digitally. No clay models were built; just five months after the initial sketches were completed in March 2007, the Reventón was unveiled at the 2007 Frankfurt Auto Show in September. Based on the extraordinarily successful Murciélago LP640, the Reventón departs with all-new exclusive composite carbon-fiber body panels, inspired by the F-22 Raptor fighter jet, over its carbon-fiber and steel main structure.
A prominent central peak and large forward-facing air intakes dominate the car’s visage, the latter ensuring optimal airflow to the front carbon-fiber brake discs and black 6-piston calipers. In the classic Lamborghini fashion established by the legendary Countach and a feature of every 12-cylinder Lambo since, the doors open upward. Another pair of large air intakes dominate the Reventón’s side sills, the driver side feeding air to the engine oil cooler and the passenger side channeling air beneath the floor to the voluminous rear diffuser. A longer tail and a larger speed-activated rear spoiler add to the Reventón’s aerodynamic edge over the Murciélago.
Like the F-22, there is not a single flat plane in the entire shape, but a series of angles that emphasize the car’s high-speed mission. In addition to its swoopy body, the Reventón’s machined billet aluminum fuel-filler cap, exhaust outlet, bi-xenon/LED headlights, LED tail lights and gloss-black wheels with carbon-fiber blades all contribute to the Reventón’s extreme exclusivity. The Reventón’s interior is every bit as unique, showing off Nero Perseus leather and Olive Verde Alcantara upholstery covering carbon-fiber seats, and a new instrument cluster made of carbon-covered billet aluminum and sheltering three aircraft-style Thin Film Transistor screens in place of analog readouts.
These can be configured to show all driver information in two different layouts, one patterned after contemporary aircraft design and another using round analog-style readouts for those who prefer more conventional instrumentation. Distinctive arrow design patterns are punched into the Alcantara inserts in the seats, carpets and headliner, a motif repeated in the tail-light design. White thread decorates the black leather upholstery and is used for the Reventón logos stitched into the door panels and the Lamborghini insignias decorating the headrests.
Other interior surfaces are trimmed in highly polished carbon fiber as standard fitment, namely the dash inserts, steering wheel lower rim, console plate and passenger grab handle. Bold styling always leads the way in designing the latest raging bull, but no Lamborghini is complete without a brilliantly engineered drivetrain and chassis, and the Reventón lives up to its unique status in both categories. Visible beneath the Reventón’s arrow-motif back glass, its 6.5L V-12 engine comes straight from the Murciélago, but a dash of tuning has raised output by 10 ponies to 641 HP.
Mated to the paddle-shifted E-Gear 6-speed transmission, the Reventón’s V-12 accelerates the car to 60 MPH in 3.4 seconds on the way to its 211 MPH top speed. Driven just 168 miles and in pristine as-completed condition, this last of the 20 exclusive Reventóns built is offered with all accompanying factory ancillaries as a complete package that includes the owner’s manual packet and serialized knapsack, Reventón supplement book, battery tender and fitted car cover. A milestone in Lamborghini’s rich history of advanced design, the Reventón promises to fulfill its destiny as a true automotive classic.
