An exclusive new 220mph supercar named after a legendary and lethal fighting bull is to roar into life with a £3million price tag.
But only three of the new Lamborghini Venenos - described as a 'street legal racing car' - will be built and sold; and they already have buyers.
The three cars sold to customers compose a trilogy in green, white and red accents, each of one featuring a single color of the Italian national flag, thus representing a unique piece: ‘The trilogy of three unique vehicles will be produced in the course of the year 2013 and handed over to their future owners.’
A fourth car called 'number 0' and created as a test vehicle for the other three is the only one being shown at Geneva and will also be the only Veneno displaying all three colours of the Italian flag. Lamborghini said: 'Its future has not been determined yet, but it will allow Lamborghini to continue its activity of testing and innovation, both on the road and on the race track.'
The two-seater Veneno is powered by a massive 6.5 litre 12 cylinder petrol engine developing 750 horse-power – equivalent to seven Ford Fiestas – linked to a seven speed manual gear-box with five different driving modes and permanent all-wheel drive, which Lamborghini says delivers ‘a thrilling combination of absolute high-revving frenzy and phenomenal pulling power’.
It is expected to accelerate from rest to 60mph in under 3 seconds.
Lamborghini described the ‘extremely exclusive’ Veneno as ‘a racing prototype and road-going super sports car’ based on the Lamborghini Aventador.
It was unveiled on the eve of the Geneva Motor show in Switzerland at a special evening event hosted by the parent Volkswagen Group at which Britain’s Bentley also showcased its new Flying Spur.
A spokesman for Lamborghini said: 'Fully in keeping with the tradition of the brand, the name of the Veneno originates from a legendary fighting bull.
'Veneno is the name of one of the strongest and most aggressive fighting bulls ever. He is also famous to be one of the fastest bulls in the history of bullfight. His name became popular in 1914, when he gored do death José Sánchez RodrÃÂÂguez during the bullfight in the arena Sanlúcar de Barrameda's.'

I don't think they are.
The middle one is the CEO of Lamborghini and the other two are heads of Audi and Volkswagen Group.
I'm pretty sure they didn't buy it on staff discount themselves. :P

:wow: they can buy it if they want it
-
It's a shit car until Top Gear says otherwise. :D
-
That's damn sexy.
-
I like Lamborghini more
-
You can't even compare those two cars.. the Lambo is way cooler :)
-
Yeh Lambo looks way better than the Bugatti but the Bugatti is still faster. :D
-
the wheels are shitty the rest is fucking awesome
-
Buggati Veyron 16,4 cost around 15 milion dollar =)
-
Huh just 4.5mil, too lazy to get up and buy it :neutral:
-
Hah.. it looks like it really belongs on the race track (or clamped down in a high security showroom xD), but crazy car.
My personal favourite is the Lamborghini Aventador... absolutely awesome.
The most expensive Veyron that can be bought is around $2.4 mill, but it costs them around $7.6 - $8.0 million to make (apparently.. it seems to vary).
At least Lamborghini and Bugatti are all owned by the same people. :P
-
the wheels are shitty the rest is f**king awesome
Made for performance.
-
Please...
veyron
Straight line - Bugatti Veyron wins
Track - I doubt the Veyron can keep up with Veneno. It's a complete track car which as also legal for road use.
I'm a Lamborghini guy.. And yes, the best Lamborghini till date in my opinion is the Aventador. That just kicked some today's supercars in the butt.

Nice video
Yo Duel buy me one of these cars :D
-
LaFerrari is way better than any Lamborghini in perfomance, even in a straight line.
-
Nice car, I wouldn't buy it if I could, though. Give me an olde fashioned Japanese straight-six turbo any day.

Ahh... this was unveiled alongside the Veneno in Geneva last month.
It's pretty cool, I think, but same as with the new Lambo both to me seem like "crazy" designs. :lol:
I am still a fan of the Italia, Berlinetta, 599...
-
Damn, nice car i wish i have it in future. :roll:
-
nice car but way too expansive for me to buy but as it is said that all three cars of this lamborghini are sold, so if i would have money i could not buy it .

I wouldn't want this car or any car like it even if I could afford it, they are useless.. No room, 2 seats, no boot(?) I mean whats the point, it can't really be used to anything you'd do on a daily basis, not to mention it drinks fuel, complete waste of money. :poke:
