BY THE BEARD OF ZEUS this is a damn fine car. Seriously, I have never, ever seen a car (a supercar, nonetheless) so aggressive, so jet-like, so bluntly brutal…and yet so civilized and extremely high-class. It’s so great that if I ever owned one, I’d probably invade a small country just so I could build a giant racetrack to give my Reventon a run for its money. A small country with plenty of oil, that is. And as dictator, I’d make absolute sure that my new country would have very close relations with Canada, one because I love Canada, and two because we have the second largest amount of oil reserves waiting to be fully exploited.

However, I might have to make some deals, commit some extortion, maybe even whack a few guys to raise enough finances to possess such a machine that is a mix between Transformers and Equilibrium (and encompassing ALL the coolness of both fine flicks). Or I could just befriend some incredibly-rich sheik in Dubai, borrow his Reventon, and race against his Bugatti Veyron through the crowded highways of the UAE. Highly ironic, considering that I don’t advocate the rampant consumption of oil for environmental/conservation reasons. But hey, it’s my fantasy and I can dream whatever the hell I want. Like going down to the States and playing around with an AK-47 at a shooting range.

Enough about my rant, I know that you’re more interested in the Lamborghini Reventon than my personal thoughts. So here’s the post about this fantastic driving machine over at Motor Authority, complete with a sick video and total eye-candy pics.
