It's been reported that Lamborghini's latest toy for the rich, the Revuelto, which succeeds the mighty Aventador, taking the brand into the electrified era, starts north of the $600,000 mark in the United States. Therefore, this Sian needs to be eye-watering expensive to make it look like a bargain.
More about the Benjamins in a few moments, as first, we will remind you that the Sian FKP 37, whose name is a tribute to Ferdinand Karl Piech and the year he was born, was one of the multiple high-end exotics that were based on the same construction as the Aventador. The list also includes the Centenario, Veneno, Essenza SCV12, and Countach LPI 800-4, as well as the multiple derivatives of the Aventador.

Shown to the world a little over four years ago, the Lamborghini Sian FKP 37 entered production in 2020. By the time it left the assembly line at the Sant'Agata Bolognese factory two years later, 63 Coupes and 19 Roadsters were made. The exterior design was the work of Mitja Borkert, who was also responsible for the Terzo Millenio concept, different versions of the Huracan and Aventador, and multiple Porsches during his stay at the Zuffenhausen marque.

Despite retaining the heart and soul of its more mainstream sibling, the Aventador, which is a naturally aspirated 6.5-liter V12, the Sian FKP 37 brought a 48-volt electric motor to the party. Instead of a usual lithium-ion battery pack, it uses a supercapacitor that is three times punchier than a normal battery of the same size. Recharging is done automatically every time the driver steps on the brakes. The modern-day coach-built supercar was and still is a force to be reckoned with at the racetrack, as it was born to feast on apexes.

The total power available at a hard push of the fun pedal is 808 horsepower (819 ps/602 kW). The peak output is available at 8,500 rpm and enables the nought to sixty-two miles an hour (0 to 100 kph) in just under 2.9 seconds. The spec sheet reveals a maximum speed in excess of 217 mph (350 kph) in the Roadster variant. You might be tempted to think that the Sian FKP 37 Coupe is equally fast to its open-top sibling. However, it is one-tenth quicker and has a higher top speed of 221 mph (355 kph).

Due to the insane amount of power available on tap, the gorgeous look inside and out, proper dynamics, advanced aero, and very limited build number, Lamborghini's Sian FKP 37 is eye-watering expensive these days, regardless if we’re talking about the Coupe or the Roadster. Some examples tend to fetch more than barely driven copies of the Bugatti Chiron, and the pictured one certainly falls in this category.

Wearing a nice shade of gray on the outside and featuring several exposed carbon fiber elements and an orange touch, this Sian FKP 37 Roadster has a black and orange cockpit. Its name is visible on both sides of the central console, and the steering wheel, dashboard, headrests, and other components have the Lamborghini logo on them. It sports a mix of Alcantara and fine leather upholstery, and to further emphasize its exotic nature, there are various naked carbon fiber bits and pieces on the inside, too.

With 93 miles (150 km) under its belt, this true work of art is priced accordingly, as you will have to pay no less than €5,709,620 for it. That is the asking price on Hollmann, and it equals $5,990,360 at the current exchange rates. We don't need to tell you that for that kind of money, you could buy almost every vehicle that was ever made. Or you could simply limit your choice to a few lesser models that are not as rare as this Sian FKP 37, and you will still have enough money for a very nice home in some of the most beautiful parts of the Western world.

The vendor does not say anything else about it in the listing accessible here other than reminding readers about the power and fuel consumption and going through some of the equipment. And you may not have noticed, but the ad doesn't say when this rare Italian beast was made. Nonetheless, it is clear that we are dealing with an almost new copy that probably still retains some of that new car smell despite being a few years old.

It is obvious that the owner kept it in a climate-controlled garage under wraps, waiting to make a lot of money off of it, and that day has finally come. If it ends up selling for the asking price, then its owner will have made a cool profit of a couple of million dollars. It is estimated that the Roadster variant of the Sian FKP 37 had a starting price of around $3 million when it was new. It kind of beats investing in anything else, doesn't it?
