Off the line: Fun cars and social responsibility Autoweek op-ed stands the test of time

Lamborghini Aventador LP720-4 50 Anniversario heading for Shanghai

So, even though the Veneno was the Lamborghini 50th Anniversary car at this year’s Geneva Motor Show, it looks like Lamborghini is having a second ’50th Anniversary’ special up their sleeves – the Lamborghini Aventador LP720-4 50 Anniversario. According to Carscoops, the Lamborghini Aventador LP720-4 50 Anniversario will debut this weekend at the Shanghai Motor Show as a limited run of just 100 cars to add an extra celebratory veneer to Lambo’s 50th year as a supercar maker. The LP720-4 50 Anniversario comes in an eye-catching bright yellow - Giallo Maggio – with a black aerodynamic package to contrast that includes a new front apron, diffuser and skirts.
