German tuning house CDC International is serious about adding flair to already wild exotics like the Audi R8, Bentley Continental GT and Lamborghini Gallardo. Wheels, body kits, high performance exhausts, engine upgrades…they do it all. Their latest and greatest product draws inspiration from Lamborghini’s Reventón, the 2007 Frankfurt Auto Show stunner that featured a fighter jet-inspired carbon fiber body atop a “base” Murcielago LP640. The production run was limited to just 20 examples costing a cool $1.5mm each and the batch sold out before show models could even unveil the damn thing. For those of you who were too poor or too slow to grab one, CDC has designed this Reventon-look body kit (front bumper, rear bumper, side skirts, and diffuser) for the Murcielago’s baby bro, the Gallardo. They appropriately refer to it as “a little Reventón”. Interested? The package will run you a cool $25K. Nothing little about that. CDC was good enough to photograph the final product for us, seen here posed against a randomly colorful recycling depot in the Town of Bad Staffelstein.

Thanks Mike!

I’m hanging a Louie out of the Stratton Mountain parking lot and nearly drove into a tree at the sight of this Lamborghini tank (uhm SUV). But the ultra rare (301 built between 1986 and 1993) LM002 does more than scare motorists. Just like the Mercedes G Wagon and Hummer H1, the machismo 4×4 was constructed with military applications in mind. And just the Mercedes G Wagon and Hummer H1, Americans took a liking to versions equipped with leather seats and modern creature comforts. We followed the Italian off-roader for a while and the V12, shared with the Countach, positively howled the entire way. Leave it to a New Yorker to pack one of these full of people and head to the ski slope. I hope everyone wiped their feet.

For some people, that means climbing aboard the city-bound train from the suburbs. Others ride the bus or subway. But this commuter prefers the smell of hand stitched hides and the scream of a 571 HP V12 on his way into the office. Can you blame him? Seen here in a red hue that Lamborghini calls Rosso Andromeda, this Murcielago appears to be one of the gen 1 examples produced between 2001 and 2006. And despite the considerable power increase that came in 2007 with LP640 and the raft of limited production models, like Versace and SuperVeloce editions, the long-in-the-tooth flagship will likely undergo a considerable redesign in 2012. Expect parent company Audi to donate more parts this time around.

For 2009, Lamborghini revised their best-selling Gallardo with, among other things, a restyled front/rear end and more power. It is still razor sharp and thoroughly exotic. bella!

It’s not often that you get to pull the cover off a Lamborghini during the winter months in NYC. But, thanks to the sunny, unusually mild weather pictured here, the owner of this gen 1 coupe was able to cruise the streets in style. We caught him checking out the similarly colored (yellow/black) Kawasaki KZ400 (1974-1984) across the street.
