Lamborghini Reventon time capsule retains factory tires
Initially, the Lamborghini Reventon Roadster was delivered to its buyer in Singapore. Most of the time the supercar was in storage, so its mileage is only 47 km. The car is currently located in Miami, Florida.
The roadster still has its original tires and drive belt from 2009. Computer diagnostics showed that for 95% of the engine’s operating time, its speed did not exceed 1,400 rpm.
Before the auction, the Lamborghini Reventon Roadster received a new battery. Specialists also completely flushed the fuel system. At the same time, additional work may be required for further operation of the car.
Rare Lamborghini Reventon Roadster valued at over $3 million
Lamborghini presented the Reventon Roadster in 2009, two years after the debut of the coupe of the same name. The initial price of the open version was approximately $2.1 million, and total production was limited to 15 cars.
The Lamborghini Reventon was based on the Murcielago. The roadster is equipped with a naturally aspirated 6.5-liter V12 producing 661 hp, paired with a six-speed e-gear automated manual transmission.
The design of the Lamborghini Reventon was influenced by fighter jets, in particular the F-22. The supercar received a body with sharp edges and angular surfaces. Similar styling solutions later appeared on the Lamborghini Aventador, presented in 2011.
