2008 Lambhorghini Reventon

Drive-line

 

[Don Vito Corleone]

That thing looks just ridiculous IMO. I am at a loss to understand what would possess someone to pay the astromical price of this car when you could get a Ferrari 430, 599, and 612 for this kind of cash.

 

[evident]

ugh, it looks ugly..... their other cars are much nicer!

 

[Xyclone]

WTF? Why does it have the Lamborghini badge on it?

 

[JackBurton]

Very Batmobile like. I think I'll buy the Veyron instead.

 

[mooncancook]

the front end looks like a cartoon rabbit or something...

 

[Yetiman]

Maybe it's just me, but I think it's just about the coolest looking car I have seen in a long time (aside from the wheels which I don't care for)... But then I am a huge fan of the Mucielago.

glad you are the only one who's different.

Haha, I don't even know why I click on threads regarding new cars. Every one deteriorates into a circle jerk of idiots exclaiming how ugly said car is, often a car the individual will never see, much less drive, and often with the first post.

Edit: I forgot to qualify that statement with the one exception ... That being your standard Mazda/Subaru/etc. econobox with objectively generic/bland styling that this forum seems to love.

 

[sisq0kidd]

I like the car a lot. This is Lambhorghini, that's what it's suppose to look like!

 

[foghorn67]

was that the name of the boat in the movie "The Island"?
random foghorn question...

 

[dug777]

I can't believe the usual suspects haven't popped in to exclaim how much better it would be with a LS1 in it

no, it'd probably be better off with an LS7

Dammit, that's going to drive me crazy until someone answers it. My disc of that one is too scratched to play. It's gotta be on the internet somewhere.

EDIT: Ok I cheated and looked it up to save myself a headache.

"Tom Lincoln's boat named the Renovatio in the film is the real-life 118 WallyPower luxury super-yacht."

yep renovatio.

The Island also featured cadillac's supercar concept (not sure what it was called)

 

[GoatMonkey]

I don't think they called it anything other than a Cadillac. He said something along the lines of "this is the car I designed for Cadillac".

EDIT: One more thing relating to The Island. Michael Bay is a moron...

"Scarlett Johansson offered to go nude during the sex scene between her character and Ewan McGregor's. Director Michael Bay decided against it, thus Scarlett is shown wearing a bra during the scene"

 

[essasin]

Finally Lambos have gone back to their roots of being outrangeous, out of the ordinary, and completly over the top. I would if I could. This kind of car will defintetly get a love or hate responce.

i looked up the cadillac car (the cien)... 750hp 7.5L v12!! damn they should have made that thing :Q

This design is nothing more than a stealth dressed Countach.

Personally I think it looks like a Cadillac CTS humped a Ferrari FXX and tried to use stealths angled design to hide it's crossbred love-child.

It's very angular. They could have at least tried to increase the polygon count on it. I wonder if their 3D renderer is GPU limited.
