This Tuned Lamborghini Aventador That Looks Like an Exotic Transformer Is for Sale

For a brief period, it was believed its successor would ditch the naturally aspirated V12 engine altogether. That would have been a sad day for the entire automotive industry, as not only the Aventador but all its predecessors, including the Murcielago, Diablo, Countach, and Miura, used to feature a V12. And as it turns out, so does the Revuelto.

Named after a bull said to have jumped into the stands no less than eight times back in the 1880s, the Lamborghini Revuelto builds on the legacy of its forefathers, bringing the brand's flagship supercar into the electrified era. It features three electric motors that aid the naturally aspirated 6.5-liter V12, which can be revved up to 9,500 rpm, and in total, it boasts 1,001 horsepower. Two and a half seconds after setting off, it will have reached 62 mph (100 kph) and can keep going up to 217 mph (350 kph). It will also move around on electric power for around 6 miles (10 km) with the 3.8 kWh battery fully charged.

This story isn't dedicated to the Revuelto, which is sold out for the next two years, but to one special Aventador. We're talking about the copy pictured in the gallery above, which came to life in 2016. The seven-year-old supercar has clocked some 12,000 kilometers (~7,500 miles) since it rolled off the line, so it has seen a lot of action. That's obviously good news, as instead of keeping it in a climate-controlled garage with the sole purpose of flipping it for a fat profit, its owner chose to enjoy it on a rather constant basis. And since they were not satisfied with the looks, they decided to reach out to Liberty Walk.

In turn, the Japanese tuner answered the call, giving it the LB-Silhouette Works GT body kit and a few other features. Therefore, it now sports canards on the front bumper, a sizeable apron with side blades, a new vented front hood, vents on the front quarter panels, ultra-fat side skirts, big air intakes in front of the rear wheels, and a humongous diffuser. The rear wing has oversized proportions, and we can also see that it has four new tailpipes. Finished in yellow and decorated by all sorts of decals, with the occasional black trim here and there, this Aventador rides on a set of multi-spoke alloys. The 20-inch wheels were wrapped in 245/30 front and 305/30 rear tires, and they fit under the arches even when the air suspension brings the entire body extremely close to the asphalt.

If that wasn't enough yellow on the outside, this Lamborghini Aventador features even more in the cabin. The lively hue was partially applied to the seats, mixed with black leather, and it can be seen on the lower parts of the dashboard, center console, armrests, and steering wheel. This vehicle also sports double stitching in the same color, Alcantara on the pillars, headliner, and steering wheel, and despite being marketed by a Japanese tuner and living in the Land of the Rising Sun, it's a left-hand drive example. That's obviously good news for anyone living in a left-hand drive market who's willing to make an offer, hoping they will see it in their driveway soon, and for that, they'll have to pay a small fortune. Hey, this is an Aventador we're talking about, and it's a well-known fact that examples of this model never change hands for pennies – unless they were completely wrecked.

Now, our Japanese is a little rusty, but we managed to find out that in order to make it yours, you will have to fork out 32,200,000 yen – or so it seems. That is nearly $230,000 at the current exchange rates, and we think it's not bad at all, especially for a seven-year-old supercar that appears to be in great condition inside and out. And that's before factoring in the body kit, wheels, and air suspension, as to the right enthusiast, they make it look better than a stock example. We're not exactly fans of wacky body kits, but we've always had a soft spot for Liberty Walk's projects – okay, I have, and I think this Lamborghini Aventador looks very good. In fact, if its future owner turns out to be a Transformers fan, then they could always claim that their new (used) ride is quicker and more exotic than the Bumblebee Camaro. The question is, are you its future owner? And do you think this is a decent asking price for the pictured supercar (assuming Google Translate didn't trick us)?
