Get your hands on the first used Reventon on the market!
Sometimes when a dream comes true, it loses all its magic. Closing the eyes and thinking about the various showpieces and angles of a Lamborghini Reventon seemed to have more glamour than actually sitting in it and driving it.
The Lamborghini Reventon is one of the most desirable supercars of nowadays but in the end it is still just a vehicle. It even has four wheels and other such traditional boring elements. We have heard that it is awesome and almost unrealistic to drive, but it is still a so-called poster-car. Just like the Countach was. Only the latter was a pain to drive and handle and hopelessly impractical.
Volkswagen sues Lamborghini O.C. for theft of $12 million

Lambo doing well despite closing down its biggest dealership
After the chaps at Audi took over Lamborghini, the tables turned for the good. The cash register at Lamborghini had started to ring more frequently, the quality of their cars were much better and there was a certain German feel to the supercars that couldn’t be explained.
Many cribbed that the cars that rolled out of the Lamborghini facility lacked that pizzazz that Italian cars were famous for, but Audi and Lamborghini never complained as they laughed their way to the bank.
