Nobody buys the Aventador because it is faster than the F8 or the 720S. Because it is not. It is in some aspects a bit of a dinosaur. People buy it because it is the only supercar with a V12 still left. All the other V12s are in GTs or hypercars. Lamborghini have that market locked the f**** down. So why in the world would they want to go V8 and fight the cars which people who buy bulls find boring because of their engines?

Yes but I believe the money went was going to charity? I might be wrong though.

I believe the white car was sold for charity. This often means that people are willing to pay even more than normal. Also there is a rumor going around that the owner bought the car back which can explain the crazy money it sold for. But I also think the estimate is way low. If I were to buy any Veneno Roadster it would be this one for sure. The spec is beyond evil. Makes an angry car stand out even more if you ask me!

What I don't get is that Lamborghini say they do not want their cars to share the spotlight with the competitors. But that will happen at the Quail in USA and at FOS in the UK anyway? What they are doing is giving their competitors all of the spotlight from the worlds automotive media in what is one of the biggest events of the calender. Everyone is going to be in Geneva to report. And everyone in Lambo's segment is going to be there to unveil cars. Last year over 600k people came to GIMS. I doubt there were 600k people at The Quail or at FOS the same year ... I really think Lamborghini is losing a lot of publicity here.

For sure this is the reasoning. But I personally fail to see why they change their strategy if they've been selling cars in record pace for the last few years. Why change the formula if it works? Plus it's very sad for me personally as I go to the show mostly to see new Lamborghinis ... They seem to forget their fans a bit imo.

The Hypercar thing is being unveiled at Goodwood Festival of Speed

Hello guys! I just got alarming news from a friend of mine. My friend told me that he had spoken to the brand manager of Lamborghini in Sweden and that he was told that Lamborghini is not going to be at GIMS 2020. Does anyone have any info about this? I really hope this is not the case as Lamborghini is one of the best cars at the show and have always been ...

Can you guys please try to post your SVJ's in the SVJ thread? I get very excited when I see this thread is active, but nothing about the actual car the thread is about :P?

So what is it that Lamborghini will unveil at the show? Anyone have any idea?

This thread is a good idea. I hope you guys will drop info and teasers of what we can expect at this great event. I heard Bugatti is showing some one-off. Any idea if Lambo is unveiling something new?

Also: The guy who took the pictures said it had no sound and was driving 100 km/h so he thinks it could be a hybrid ...

Came across these two pictures on the www. What do you guys think it is? I doubt they are doing a re-styling of the EVO similar to the one they did on the Gallardo LP560-4 already. But who knows? Personally I am leaning more towards it being the RWD version?

Hey people! I got this link from a friend. Anyone have any info? https://www.thesupercarblog.com/rumor-lamborghini-to-reveal-new-supercar-on-june-4/

At Geneva Motor Show 2018, Lamborghini showed us a Rosso Efesto Aventador S with carbon roof and engine cover. Sort of like on the SVJ 63. That was a display of what Ad Personam could do. How is that not possible on the SVJ? I mean if you were to do that and ad carbon on the side you would have the exterior of the SVJ 63 and nobody would be able to tell the difference. In my opinion the 63 is one hell of a bad last version of the Aventador. It is not that special. Just some extra carbon which you can add via Ad Personam and a few stickers which you can add no problem. Lambo failed on that one if you ask me.

I heard talk awhile back about the V12 being a lot smaller. I think it was 4 liters? It had something to do with China and their taxation on big displacement engines. But here it states they will keep the 6,5 liter V12 which tbh also makes sense since they launched that engine with the Aventador. A lot of R&D money gone if they replace it with a new engine only one model in its life? The V12 from the Miura stayed alive until 2010 ...
