Lamborghini Aventador Novitec Torado, Pink Lilac

The Aventador LP 700-4 was launched at the Geneva Motor Show on 28 February 2011 with a 700 PS V12, and Novitec, which works on Lamborghinis under the Novitec Torado name, soon had a full programme for it. The body parts were carbon fibre throughout, with a clear-carbon option: a bonnet with triangular intakes, inserts for the front intakes, vents ahead of the windscreen and behind the side windows, mirror caps, a rear wing and a diffuser with optional fins. Sport springs lowered the car by about 30 mm onto three-piece forged wheels of 20 inches at the front and 21 at the rear. Exhaust stages gave between 722 and 748 hp, and for owners who wanted far more there was a twin supercharger kit, measured at 969 hp.

This example is painted a sparkling pink lilac metallic that turns towards violet in shadow, with fine violet piping traced along the panel lines, the carbon sills and the roof scoops. The roof, splitter, side blades and rear wing are carbon, and copper multi-spoke wheels sit over red calipers. Through the glass the cabin is pink and black. The car stands on a white leather base stitched in red, under a plaque that reads Novitec Torado, Aventador, Davis & Giovanni and Limited, one of 15. Davis & Giovanni builds it at 1:18.
