A special 50th anniversary edition of Lamborghini's Aventador LP-720-4 (named after a famous Spanish fighting bull) was unveiled at the 2013 Shanghai Auto Show. Offering more than a trim package, the already powerful V12 was boosted to 710 bhp giving it a 0-60 time of 2.9 seconds. The front end sported a larger splitter and wider mesh openings and in the rear, a larger diffuser and meshed opening also for greater stability,handling,top end speed and engine cooling. The interior features semi-aniline leather (this model is in Nero Ade (black) with white accents. Overall 200 units were built - 100 coupes and 100 roadsters. With a pricetag that exceeded $800,000, it fell under the category of "If you have to ask, you can't afford it".

AA did a nice job on their Aventadors.  This is a very nice special edition, though Lambo has released quite a few (SV, SVJ, Ultimae).

I went with the Welly version, which arrived with a frunk that wouldn't completely shut.  The seller told me to keep it & sent me another.

Great pics guys. That "thing"  was way ahead of its time.... looks "2023"  to me.  Gavin, I can't believe that's a Welly. (Nice! 😎 )

Thanks @chris.  Welly did a very good job.  Just wish they'd release more 1:18s.

Very tricky one to photograph in white, Rich. You did well.
