Supercar snapped up

All 20 models of Lamborghini’s Centenario roadster have been sold out, ahead of its debut at the Monterey Car Week, says Automotive News. The NZ$3.16 million limited-edition supercar was built to commemorate founder Ferruccio Lamborghini’s 100th birthday. Another limited-edition $2.75 million coupe was also unveiled at the Geneva auto show, earlier this year, and those 20 models have since been sold. The Centenario roadster weighs 1.651kg, with a body made from carbon fibre. The all-wheel-drive model has a 6.5-litre, 574kW V12 engine and can reach 0-100 kph in 2.9 seconds, with a top speed of almost 350kph. Lamborghini said in a statement that the car features a rear-wheel-drive steering system, which enables better and more agile turns at low speeds. At high speeds, the rear tires turn in the same direction as the steering angle, leading to “a virtual increase of the wheelbase.”
