someone wake me up from this dream...

stop by the local car dealer - midwestern auto group - and did a bit of drooling...

the best car of the bunch… the new aventador lp700-4 (replacement car for the murcielago). msrp $379,700... special matte black paint another $17,000...
700 hp... V12... all wheel drive... 0 - 60 in 2.9 seconds... top speed 217 mph...

pictures don't do it justice...

front end is a bit high but that's because it's in the raised position for added clearance.

The satin black on the Lambo is "Nero Nemesis".... truly a stunning color.

The orange calipers are perfect on that ride.

Wow.... The Aventador has the Stealth fighter sharp angles and radar absorbing matt black paint. What an amazing car. Hmmm.... Expensive you might say, but you wont need to buy a radar detector!

Re: someone wake me up from this dream...

The sad part is almost if not all of those cars will be bought and either be driven by incompetent drivers or never driven at all

I hope I do Andrew. So I can tell him since he paid Lamborghini $17000 to lay down the Primer, I know a real good place that would finish the paint job.

What can I say, I'm old fashion and it's just tooo "Mad Max" for me.
Still, I wouldn't kick it.

Uh.... no. 1 - the owner would kill me; 2 - I love the flat black on that car as it's the perfect color compliment for the stealth fighter look embodied by that car. I'm not normally a huge fan of flat black for an entire vehicle, but this car is why flat black was invented.
