Pictured above is truly something we should expect when some famed celebrity fashion designer like Christian Audigier does a Lamborghini. Edo Competition joined hands with Christian Audigier to create this stunning, limited edition Murcielago called the edo LP 710 Audigier. You can clearly see Audigier’s work in the matte black exterior and the interiors, with a pirate theme and the sparkling skull. The car has been rebuilt with new aerodynamics, wheels, tires and a new exhaust. Based on the Lamborghini MurciĆ©lago LP 640, the LP 710 features a stainless steel high performance exhaust system and 19-inch light alloy wheels.

Straight from the house of DiMora Motorcar, the Natalia SLS2 touts a variable cylinder and aluminum DiMora Volcano V16 engine with 120 hpThere are over 50 computer systems that monitor every aspect of the sedan.

Earlier, Lambo president Stephan Winkelmann cited:




Although the details are scanty but, the news around the hot tub is that the Zonda R from Pagani will be power-driven by a 7.3L V12 throwing out 750hp and 523 lb/ft of torque. The official renderings have been made public. We can certainly expect it to be technologically advanced like the $2 million DiMora Natalia SLS 2. The track ready car will be produced in a limited run of just ten cars. It is being reported that the first Zonda R could be seen at the next year’s Geneva Motor show in March. The luxury roadster does resemble the current C12.
