They should build it out of the same materials as the stealth fighter and make it invisible to radar. But it would probably go over budget by a few billion.

For Dave:

Although it is based on the extraordinarily successful Murci?lago LP640, the exterior design of the Revent?n is completely new. Just like the base model, the exterior is made of CFC, a composite carbon fibre material, which is as stable as it is light. The exterior components are glued and fixed to the body comprised of CFC and steel.

Although I really like the hard edge looks of the car, it is not a far departure from the LP640 IMO. Not far enough to justify the $1,200,000 separation in price.

The concept of the Reventon is actually based solely on the LP640

It all started with a customer's custom paintjob Wink

Who cares what it looks like. All I know is that the wheels are carbon fiber and are like $100,000 a piece.

Perfect timing, just as the Americans are planning to retire the stealth fighter.  Hard edges are old school stealth nowadays.  I prefer the LP640 as well.

I was thinking the same thing. The F-117 is older than most members in your sig pic. Tongue

But we will probably be seeing the F-117 Stealth in action pretty soon. Some will probably be sold to Taiwan to keep the Chinese at bay.

I haven't looked it up yet, but my guess would be that it has something to do with genitles and whatnot.

So my guess would be that Derrick is saying something along the line that Some poor Lambo designer lost their gentiles and whatnot. ??
