Watch how a Lamborghini Aventador is born

Tuesday, July 5th, 2011

We’re smitten with the 2012 Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4 – the Italian automaker’s latest hotness. And while it’s no secret that crafting the V12-powered supercar is no easy task, the folks at Lamborghini want to show the world just how much attention to detail and quality craftsmanship goes into the production of each Aventador.

Lamborghini evaluating either sedan or crossover… but not both

Tuesday, March 1st, 2011
