:::Lamborghini Reventón:::




My friends it's been a very, very long time!
This is a new car released by Lamborghini sometime between now and my last update I believe.




This car has the same motor as the Lamborghini LP640. 650 horses and 6.5L of displacement.

This car costs 1 million Euros not including any taxes. Only 20 cars are being produced and even less will actually hit the pavement. The dashboard is made out of a solid piece of aluminum with carbon fibre to reduce glare! Just like the corvette the Reventon has a G-Force meter! The dashboard has 3 LCD screens that have all the gauges and other info. A very elegant interior.





The exterior is a lot more angular than the LP640 that it was based on. The rims have carbon fibre fins to suck the air to the brakes. It also has glass fins over the motor so you can see it.




All in all another amazing car by Lamborghini!

:::Back 2 Cars:::














It's been a long time since I've last updated about cars, so here is one for all of you Mercedes-Benz and McLaren Fans.

This is the Roadster version of the Mercedes SLR McLaren (A Mercedes with a McLaren Motor in it).In case you didn't know this the McLaren F1 used to be the fastest production car in the world; and it is one of my favorite cars. The body of the SLR is made of carbon fibre because of it's strength, torsional stiffness, safety, and lightness. The supercharged V-8 engine, with 626 hp, can reach a top speed of 332 km/h (the same as the coupe version). That sure would blow your hair around if you had the top down!! McLaren and Mercedes have taken materials used in aciation and space industries and put it into their cars: so cars like this SLR are very advanced in material and performance. 0-100 km/h in 3.8 seconds... oh yah!! These specs are unheard of for any convertable.
