This year marks Ferrucio Lamborghini’s 100th birthday and the marque carrying his name is coming out with a special car to commemorate it. That would be the Lamborghini Centenario, a limited-edition supercar that combines loud, aggressive styling with advanced technologies.
A modified version of the Aventador, the new car steps it up in the styling, with bodywork that’s just outright arresting and unapologetic. I mean, look at that body with its indescribable amount of intakes, vents, and ducts. Seriously, the darn thing screams “supercar” from every imaginable angle, making for a great way to let people know your bank account is killing it without having to utter a single word.
Similar to the Aventador, the Lamborghini Centenario is built around a carbon monocoque chassis, with a naturally-aspirated V12 engine powering it from the back. Lambo is calling it the most powerful engine they’ve ever produced, putting out a full 760 horsepower, which is enough to send the car shooting from 0 to 60 in 2.8 seconds, apart from reaching top speeds of 217 mph. A permanent four-wheel steering system should help aid precision maneuvering during those high speeds, with carbon-ceramic brakes and magneto rheological dampers allowing you to tame the beast a bit for a more amiable drive.
Features include scissor doors (of course), a rear aero wing that extends at high speeds to increase the downforce, aluminum wheels with hidden ducts that pull heat from the brakes, and Pirelli PZero tires. The bespoke interior comes with leather-upholstered carbon fiber sport seats, a 10.1-inch touchscreen for the infotainment system, Apple CarPlay, and road-and-track telemetry for recording your driving performance.
Only 40 Lamborghini Centenarios will be made, 20 coupes and 20 roadsters. And, no, you can’t buy one because every single one is already spoken for at a price of €1.75 million.
