Lamborghini Aventador J Roadster revealed officially

Lamborghini Aventador J Roadster After the leak of the Lamborghini Aventador J over the weekend, tonight we get the official reveal of Lamborghini’s stripped-out Aventador Roadster When we ran leaked photos of the Lamborghini Aventador J Roadster at the weekend we said it threatened to steal a bit of Ferrari’s limelight at the Geneva Motor Show – and it will. The Aventador J  Roadster is Aventador to the max, with all fripperies – including the windscreen and roof sacrificed in the pursuit of low weight and extreme performance. Lamborghini say the Aventador J is a four-wheeled sport-bike, and they’re not wrong.

McQueen's Indian Chief, Vincent Black Shadows and rare bikes galore at the Las Vegas Motorcycle Auctions

After two days of CES electronic overload, we snuck off to Ballys down the strip and had a preview peek at the Bonhams motorcycle auction. No one was guarding the door so we just opened it up and walked right in like we owned the place. Kablam – what a sight: there were hundreds of classic bikes lined up in rows and grouped together, more or less.

First Sight: Mercedes-AMG GT

“If I was to buy any sports car that wasn't a Mercedes, it'd be a Porsche 911,” says Mercedes' head of design, Gorden Wagener. “But when you see the two cars together, we think ours has the edge.” He's talking about the new Mercedes-AMG GT, a front-mid engined, two-seater sports car that's unashamedly aimed at higher-end 911s, and we've come to see it at Mercedes' Sindelfingen studio.  The GT replaces the larger SLS, and is seen by Wagener as the best example yet of his 'sensual purity' design philosophy: “The SLS is very much [he gestures] line, line with a surface in between. With the GT we started with the surface and worked to refine and reduce the number of lines.” Elements of the SLS's platform have been carried over, so the GT measures the same 1,939mm wide.
