Most people can’t afford a Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4, but some of us want one really, really badly, so what could you do to have one all for yourself? Well, there would be one or two ways, but these include concepts like replicas, so we’ll rephrase the aforementioned question: what could you do to have an Aventador using a dignified method?
We think we may have found an answer and this lies in the image gallery above. We are talking about a 1:18 Aventador scale model released by AUTOart. The example seen here comes dressed in Giallo Orion (Pearl Yellow) and if you want to talk about attention to detail, check out the hood struts it comes with.
This LP700-4 can be yours for $219.9 (€168) and it will even make you feel important, as you can pre-order one.
There’s another advantage to buying a scale model - aside from the obvious price factor - they will probably make more than 4,000 units. Why that number all of the sudden? Because that is the limited number of units engineers in Sant’Agata Bolognese will ever produce. Sure, getting the small thing will not come with the Lamborghini’s new 700 PS 6.5-liter V12 masterpiece.
Since we mentioned the power mill that makes the wheels spin with such greatness, we may as well look at its performance. 0 to 60 mph comes in an impressive 2.9 seconds from a standstill, while the official top speed is set at 217 mph. Its transmission, a single-clutch seven-speed semi-automatic, is built by Graziano Transmissioni. Despite being single-clutch, gear-shifts are accomplished in 50 milliseconds.
Moreover, Lamborghini claims the new, electronically controlled, all-wheel drive system is developed and supplied by the Swedish company Haldex Traction, offering traction and handling capabilities based on their 4th generation technology. So here's what you should do: buy one, play with it and imagine that one day it could be the actual car.
