I think the Viper does, but that's just me. I realize it's a totally different animal. Also, I think Viper ACR > *.lambo on a track.

Not that the Reventon isn't unique and awesome, and I were given the choice of either for free, it'd be the Italian/German Axis toy there. But I don't think it's as burly as the Viper. The name sounds like a cosmetic product as well.

LOL!!!!!

you bring viper against this? hahaha

I absolutely love the Reventon. Yes of course it's obscenely overpriced. And it's far slower than it should be for the money. But that car is just beautiful.

The suspension is most likely still blocked from shipment, that's why the gap is so ridiculous in some pics.

I'd hit it.

As far as I know this car is only available with Lambo's e-gear semi-automatic, paddle-shifted transmission. Is that not automatic enough? It's actually too automatic for my taste . . .

They should've had this car in TDK, or maybe they didn't want it to get crashed like the Murcielago.

Just don't work on the brakes. Being able to stop might be important in this vehicle.

Well yeah. This thing is called 'Reventon', which sounds like it should have Hayden Panettiere doing commercials for it, showing how good it is for your skin or something.

The other thing is called 'VIPER', and gets it's juice from an 8.3L all-American box of power :)

The question was "Is it the ulimate, modern day man's car?" .. and for a man's car, I think the Viper is a more masculine beast.
