The First Lamborghini Centenario in the US has Arrived

Lamborghini Newport Beach had the honor of presenting the keys to the first Centenario in the U.S.

The limited edition model was created to celebrate the 100-year anniversary of founder Ferruccio Lamborghini’s birth, priced from $1.9 million before taxes. The all carbon fiber car is limited to 20 coupes and 20 convertibles worldwide and is powered by a naturally-aspirated V12 engine with 770 horsepower.

The first unit to arrive in the U.S. features a glossy carbon fiber exterior, highlighted with Blu Nethuns accents. The blue detailing can be seen on the lower part of the hypercar, as well as the roof lining, rear air intake, lower part of the rear movable wing and on the carbon extractors. The cabin features the same exclusive design cues, with black Nero Ade leather and Alcantara accented by Blu Amon stitching and embroidery. Even the center console boasts a striking blue finish.

The first delivery begins the start of U.S. customers receiving their Centenarios, with Lamborghini saying all U.S.-bound units will be delivered through the end of the year across the country.

“There’s something especially important about the Centenario, in that it represents a very personal milestone in the ongoing legacy of our founder, Ferruccio Lamborghini,” said Chief Operator Officer of Automobili Lamborghini America, Alessandro Farmeschi. “When Ferruccio Lamborghini began realizing his dream of creating the best supercars in the world, he wanted to reach a large audience through production, but he also wanted to keep the unique nature of limited-edition vehicles that clients are able to personalize to their own tastes and style. So celebrating the 100-year anniversary of Mr. Lamborghini’s birth with the Centenario, which is available in any conceivable variation through our Ad Personam program, is a fitting tribute to both his heritage and the brand’s future.”

2018 Lamborghini Aventador S Roadster Review

“Supercars just don’t excite me anymore.” These words, spoken to me over a month ago by another journalist, friend, and (so-called) enthusiast were echoing in my head for far too long, but they’ve finally been drowned out. Drowned out by the wail of a naturally aspirated 6.5-liter V12 engine mounted in the middle of the new Lamborghini Aventador S Roadster. My friend’s point is that back in the good old days, there was a crop of supercars that captured the imagination with amazing style, sounds, performance, and more. Today, it seems like everything is capable of supercar performance, with large luxury sedans outdoing some of the best and most dedicated teams of car nuts, while former pillars of automotive excellence are suddenly pumping out family-friendly SUVs. Beyond that, another league of supercars, dubbed hypercars have cropped up with hybrid gas-electric powertrains that make magical things happen quickly, but at the cost of the acoustic drama, visual flair, and engag...

Project SportWagen: Going Stage 2 with APR

    When we last left you, the humble little SportWagen was fresh from the development process with our friends at AWE Tuning, sporting a new downpipe, exhaust and intake, allowing things to breathe a bit easier.  The car sounded great, but there was no getting around the fact that our wagon was still quite, well, slow.   While we realize that nothing we do to the Golf SportWagen at this point will make it a race car, we still felt compelled to do something .  To put it bluntly, we had a fever, and the only cure was more power. Flash forward a few hours, and we found ourselves at Waterfest, staring down APR’s palatial spread and the numerous tuned vehicles surrounding it.  Earlier in the year, APR had hinted to us that their 1.8 TSI files would be quite impressive, and based on what they were able to do with the 2.0 TSI found in the new GTI and our time in their Golf R, we knew it’d be worth the wait.  So with this in mind, we lined our G...

Audi Teases A7 Details with New Video

Audi’s gearing up to unveil the latest iteration of the A7, and to get you excited they’ve released this teaser video focusing on the details. The lights, the lines, the interior are all teased here, and though on its own the video doesn’t give us a strong sense of what the whole car will look like, with all of the other details we’ve seen so far we now have a pretty good sense of what’s coming. As you might expect, the updated A7 will look broadly similar to the outgoing A7, but will differ in the details. Based on what we’ve seen, the changes look good. As was reported yesterday, we’re expecting a 3.0-liter turbocharged engine, a 4.0-liter V8 twin-turbo, a 2.9-liter twin-turbo V6, and an RS7 that could reportedly make up to 700 hp thanks to the Porsche Panamera’s hybrid drivetrain. We’ll know for sure, though, on Thursday, October 19, when the car is revealed. You can watch the livestream on our site or at audi.com at 2:00 pm.
