Kinda Find’a the Day: Aventador and Matching Boat

It’s hard to imagine anything more unnecessary and hilarious than a bright green Lamborghini Aventador SV, but I guess it’s not that hard if you’re rich.

Maritime machinery, as ever, has come to the rescue, with an even more unnecessary, even more hilarious, and even more green solution designed specifically for one Floridian, who is now, kindly, giving you the opportunity to own this truly special pair, with the help of James Edition.

Scientists and philosophers have long argued about whether a notion could be calcified and turned into a solid chunk of reality, and we now know that yes, avarice and excess can, indeed, be plucked from the ether and made real.

Coming in at a healthy $2.2 million, this 740 hp Lamborghini and this 1,500 hp (on race gas, but why would ever sully this thing with pump gas?) custom-made MTI 52’ Super Veloce, and its trailer ($100,000 value) can now be yours.

The Aventador has only 700 miles on the clock, while the boat has an unknown number of miles. What is known about the boat is how much it cost to paint ($80,000) and how much it cost to install a sound system ($20,000). So, really, buying the pair is just saving you all kinds of money and trouble.

The boat does look remarkably like the Lamborghini it’s doing an impression of, with a Reventon-like spoiler at the back, sharp-edged taillights under it, and sharp creases all the way to the front. It’s also flippin’ enormous at a staggering 52 feet long, dwarfing the Aventador.

Best of all, though, you can see the pair in action on TV, as they were featured on a recent episode of “The Secret Lives of the Super Rich,” if you’re interested in such a show.

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...

PZM 73rd Rally Poland Kicks Off

The WRC is in Poland and after only one stage there are three Volkswagens in the top five. Today’s special stage at the Mikolajki Arena is the first stage, but the rally doesn’t begin in earnest until Friday. Today’s super special stage was less than two minutes long, and less than a second separates the top five drivers. Hyundai Motorsport’s Thierry Neuville tops the charts today, followed closely by Volkswagen’s Andreas Mikkelsen. Sebastien Ogier and Jari-Matti Latvala are in fourth and fifth, respectively. Expect Ogier to climb the rankings, though. Not only did he win the rally last year, he has won every year since 2013. And with rain expected on Friday, Ogier’s chances are even better. “If it’s a bit wet then I hope I can make some good times,” said Ogier earlier today. “The best would be some good rain during the night so it’s a damp surface and then not too bad weather during the day so specators can enjoy the show without being too wet.” If it is dry, though, speed is on ...
