Back around say 2010, when autoevolution was a blossoming new website, one of the most talked-about stories was a replica of the Lamborghini Reventon built by some scammers.
We don't know what makes the Reventon so special. To us, it's just one of those rare supercars that cost millions yet aren't relevant anymore. But people are obsessing over it to this day, especially in places like India, China or Russia.
It could be that it's the last really cool Lamborghini that could be "accurately" copied. New stamping techniques have made even the "cheaper" Huracan V10 model a mixture of complex lines and curves that are impossible to understand. But the Reventon is a wedge with two big air intakes at the front.
People are so unashamed to copy the famous Lambo design that singer Chris Brown has a body kit inspired by the Reventon on his old Gallardo, which he asked WCC to pimp out. But at least he started out with a V10 supercar, not a crappy old Japanese coupe with a V6.
We are talking about a stretched limousine built in the Ukraine, somewhere around the capital of Kiev, to be more precise. The abomination started out in 2015 as a Mitsubishi Eclipse and has been changed into a Reventon. Or at least that's what the people who made it and are charging €200 per ride think it is.
They didn't skimp out on any of the details, as the Reventon replica comes complete with a fake engine deck, large central exhaust and diffuser tail. But the 6-meter long profile doesn't quite cut it as a Sant'Agata Bolognese masterpiece.
No amount of blinking lights and rock background music is going to make us love something like this. But as far as the build is concerned, it's not that bad. Clearly, this isn't the first time these Ukrainians have chopped a car into a limo, as the Lamborghini-themed interior is spectacular. Imagine you, your friends, a few slim blondes and all the vodka in Kiev - suddenly, the fake body isn't an issue anymore.
Access into the low-slung "supercar" is made via two Mercedes SLS-like gullwing doors. But the driver has it even better because his doors have scissor action, just like a real Lamborghini should.
