By definition, all Lamborghinis look straight-up bonkers, but there can be elegance in madness. Take the Aventador for example: a classy stealth-jet with bigger wheels. There is no subtlety in the new Veneno Roadster, however: it’s straight-up gratuitous car pr0n.
Only nine of these insane cars are being made, and with a price tag of $US4.5 million a pop, it’s probably a good thing.
The original Veneno debuted at the Geneva Motor Show recently, where Lamborghini announced that only three of the hypercars would be made. Now that it’s gone topless, Lamborghini plans to triple the production run of this ludicrous car.
Looking at the Veneno Roadster in this brief run of high-resolution press pictures, you’d be forgiven for thinking that one of the red, white or green buttons on the dash (very Italian!) would deploy rocket boosters, machine guns or an invisibility cloak. If you look down the car from the perspective of the seats, it genuinely looks like two boosters are hiding in the rear.
