Reventón, stealth fighter jet that looks like a car.

Sometime ago, when my iTunes automatically downloaded a video podcast titled Reventón and transferred it into my iPod, I was wondering what the hell was it on the video. It was a car with solid grey paint that literally looked like a stealth fighter jet. It got me to google the name to find further information.




Apparently, it is Lamborghini’s latest supercar that redefines the word ‘supercar’. It does not look like any other super car or even concept car. Previously, I always put Bugatti Veyron Pur Sang in my wish list. Now, the US$ 1.6 million F-22 Raptor-designed monster has won my heart. The design of the car’s every single element claimed to be inspired by the jet fighter (the solid grey colour, the headlamp, the arrow-shaped brake lamp, the speedometer) adds a mysterious feeling to it. And I just love it. Lamborghini plans to build only 20 units of this vehicle which all have been booked by some lucky people in the US, Europe and Dubai. While we haven’t got the privilege to drive this car now, let’s enjoy admiring its look.
