2012 Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4 Specification and price

2012 Lamborghini Aventador – Lamborghini is really good at creating sinister super sports cars, but it is equally as talented at naming them. According to the company, “Aventador” was the name of a bull that entered into battle on October 1993 at the Saragossa Arena, earning the “Trofeo de la Peña La Madroñera” for its outstanding courage.

According to Stephan Winkelmann, President and CEO of Automobili Lamborghini. “The Aventador is a jump of two generations in terms of design and technology, it’s the result of an entirely new project, but at the same time it’s a direct and consistent continuation of Lamborghini’s brand values.

Based on the production Aventador LP700-4, the Aventador J is a one-off reinterpretation of Lamborghini’s two-passenger coupe, sans roof and windshield. With generous applications of carbon fiber and some unusual styling elements, the Aventador J is “the most extreme expression of Lamborghini DNA in existence,” the company says. According to Lamborghini, the letter J is derived from FIA’s Appendix J, which defines the technical specification of racecars in various classes. It is also a subtle reference to the 1970 Lamborghini Jota, a one-off version of the classic Miura that reportedly was built to conform to the Appendix J regs.
