A new rumour says that Lamborghini is preparing a Reventon Roadster as a final farewell to the Murciélago. The limited-production Reventon was technically based on the Murciélago LP640. A Reventon Roadster would most probably use a rag-top for its roof and be even more exclusive than the coupe. Apparently just 9 cars will be built.
Power will come from the 6.5-litre V12 engine which makes 670hp (493kW) and 660Nm (487 lb-ft) of torque. Lamborghini is introducing new models at a much higher frequency than it ever has before. Only weeks ago it unveiled the Murciélago LP 670-4 SuperVeloce (SV), the fastest Lamborghini ever made. Before that we saw the Estoque four-door concept car being unveiled.

German tuner Wheelsandmore is now offering a tuning package for the Audi R8 4.2 liter V8 that provides more than a few added extras to this raging supercar.
For a mere 1,700 euros, a chip tuning kit offers 30 hp more on the 4.2 liter V8, which will take your total horsepower rating to a nice, round 450. That seems like fair value for your money, yes. But if you want more than that you may have to weigh the considerations of waiting for the R8 V10 version, which will come with a 5.2 liter FSI with 525 hp and will be priced at 142,400 euros, versus the 4.2 V8 FSI which costs 109,100.

For the first time we have a video showing the new S-Class Coupe in action during harsh winter testing. The big two-door was caught on camera about 100km from the icy town of Arjeplog in Sweden. Much of what could be disguised is left out in the open and all that is left under the covers are the bonnet, the front lower grille and parts of the rear end. Presumably these are the areas where most changes were made.
The S-Class Coupe is the new name given to the successor of the old CL-Class which was essentially an S-Class with two doors. Mercedes-Benz seems to be reducing the number of model names the public has to remember when it comes to its range of cars.

Tim Cooper came up with a hideous set of pumps inspired by the Lamborghini Gallardo. Now, a French designer at Subaru in Japan has come up with sneakers that pull their inspiration from the Lamborghini Reventon. They’re a little blunt at the front, but otherwise — and as one might expect — they’re sleek, angular, olive drab, and boast a healthy dose of carbon fiber trim.

Industrial design enthusiast Iulian Bumbu of Romania turned up this design study of what a future Lamborghini might look like. The concept is called Lamborghini Insecta and it is inspired substantially by the world of insects. Structurally the concept is made of carbon-fiber. It is 4.3 metres long, 1 metre high and 2 metres wide. The two-seater study also has a wheelbase of 2.65 metres. Bumbu says the same powertrain found in the Gallardo applies to his concept car.
