Supposed to be ultra exclusive and highly collectable no
less than seven of the twenty Lamborghini Reventón
jet-fighter inspired supercars to be built and delievred
last year are currently listed for sale on a luxury
goods website. JamesList.com has the seven
machines which all came in a military-style grey colour
scheme and featured unique aggressive styling listed on
its website which sells luxurious products such as cars,
boats, planes, watches and helicopters, hinting that even
affluent car collectors are being hit by the current
global financial crisis.
However while
the 20-off Reventón (plus an extra one built especially for
the Lamborghini museum collection) was sold by Lamborghini
last year for 1 million euros plus taxes, all the owners are
seeking to make a profit on the Murciélago LP640-based
6.5-litre V12-engined supercar which takes its sharp and
angular styling cues straight from the F-22 Raptor jet
fighter, with prices listed on JamesList.com ranging
from 1.25 to 1.58 million euro.
With maximum power of 650 bhp and 660 Nm of torque, a top
speed of over 340 km/h and a 0-100 km/h acceleration time of
just 3.4 seconds, the Reventón features the Murciélago's
traditional permanent four wheel drive and 6-speed paddle
shift 'e.gear' transmission also has an
aeronautical-inspired TFT liquid crystal driver's instrument
display and a unique 'g-force' meter.
The Reventón was
announced at the Frankfurt IAA in the autumn of 2007, with
the 20th and final example being delivered to a British
buyer late last year. One example is now being offered for
sale of JamesList.com by Alain Class Motors of the
United Arab Emirates for 1,580,000 euro, without disclosed
mileage. Two Reventóns are loacted in the United States, one
in Houston (Texas) which has 88.51 km (51 miles) showing on
the clock is and is listed P.O.A. while the other is in
Florida, and without mileage recorded is priced at 1,530,000
euro.
The majority of
these supercars, four, though are located for sale in
Germany. The cheapest is listed at 1,250,000 euros (no
disclosed mileage) coming from a Frankfurt seller which
appears to be an example that was originally destined for a
Japanese customer, then there is one priced at 1,344,537
euro (no disclosed mileage), another at 1,348,000 euros (10
km/6.21 miles) and finally an example at 1,349,000 euro (no
disclosed mileage).
