Good to see capitalism is still thriving in a communist country.
I'll have the Aston Martin thank you.

The Reventon's front end looks like A** and I'm not to fond of the Matte black either.

The Reventon is deffinately a crazy looking car. You can deffinately see the F1-11 cues in it.

It's funny, the colour in the photo does it no justice to what it's like in the flesh. Personally I reckon the colour suits it perfectly, almost stealth fighter looking, which I think it was loosely styled on.

OMFG the wheels on that Lamborghini Reventon are pure sex. I wish my car could pull it off but no, it doesn't have stealth fighter design cues :(

Dammit!!!!

Great stuff, just awesome! Just a couple of things, First of all, the first pic, the colours should be the other way around (Ferrari should be yellow, and the Aston Should be black). and in that second last pic, they aren't Murcielagos, they're Diablos. All the same, brilliant stuff, you are truly lucky, Especially that Reventon, one of only 20 ever made.

Very nice and the austin yellow looks horn. Stealth Lambo is also very cool.

in the 1st post, 3 from the top i think the white one is a mercielago and then in the last post there is a lime green one which i think is one as well. still the pick for me. i wouldn't knock back a gallardo but merci's just have that bit better styling.

saw an aston and a few gallardo's myself yesterday.... at the clipsal. geez they're an awesome sounding car at full noise.

If anyone want's to know the firing order for the Reventon's 6.5L V12, it's on the engine plaque!

Great looking car though...

Awesome display of cars, except for that Reventon. Absolutely hideous.

PS. Is it just me, or does the front on photo of the Reventon make it look like its sitting at an angle? Look at the roofline and the bottom of th windscreen.....looks like a right to left slant? Was the parking area flat?

The Reventon is just pure evil, has to be the most sinister car ever made. Awesome.
