According to some sources Lamborghini planning to launch Reventón Roadster:

We’ve seen a real flurry of activity from Lamborghini recently. The launch of the LP670-4 SV at Geneva was followed rapidly by the announcement of the LP650-4 Roadster. Only this week we’ve had rumour and counter rumour about the Estoque - will it be made, won’t it be made?

But this one tops the lot. We have heard, from a very reliable source inside Lamborghini, that the ultimate Lamborghini is about to be announced - The Lamborghini Reventon Roadster.

We thought the Reventon was very much a one-off cash-cow for Lamborghini. But it looks like they’ve decided the Murcielago is going out with a bang by deciding to produce a Reventon Roadster in even more limited numbers than the coupe.

The Reventon Roadster will feature the engine out of the new LP670-5 SV, making it a good deal meatier than its coupe sibling. It will probably still get the ‘Origami’ rag-top, but Lamborghini’s justification for the useless roof is that their customers would take a different car out if it was going to rain. Fair point I suppose. And this is going to be even rarer than the 20 editions of the Reventon - there are to be just nine Reventon Roadsters.

And it’s going to be more expensive (as you would probably expect). Each of the Lamborghini Reventon Roadsters will set their owners back €1,200,000 + tax (which at today’s exchange rate is about £1.1M or $1.6M). Which with the LP650-4 available at €295k makes the Reventon Roadster four times its price. Fair takes your breath away!

Oh, and our contact tells us there are already deposits on all nine cars. Didn’t Lamborghini do well to keep that quiet?!

Update 26/03/2009: We’ve now had confirmation from a second, equally reliable source at Lamborghini, that the Lamborghini Reventon Roadster is real, and that Lamborghini will be making an announcement in the next week.

Exclusive: Lamborghini Reventon Roadster on the way! | Cars UK | UK Car News

Interesting to see if this will be true or another expression of wishfull thinking.

 

I'd actually love to see a roadster version! Current Reventon buyers will be PISSED though!

 

Hated the coupe, and I'll hate the roadster even more.
Lambo's plan of building several different SE models is just getting... annoying.

 

Why make a roadster if the coupe doesn't sell?

 

All 20 Reventón coupes was sold out for the factory since presentation at Frankfurt 2007. All cars on the market now are owners selling their cars for premium over dealer price and statement about 7 cars for sale is not correct, all offers on Germany are scam, no real cars for sale, I know it from very reliable source who is long time in the business.

To my mind Lambo can sold out 9 cars easily, even for €1,200,000, even in the middle of recession.

 

If Lamborghini needs quick profit, I think it is better to go with unique limited edition cars, rahter than start making mass-production cars and dilute the brand.

But to my mind if Lamborghini will ever decide to make Reventón Roadster, they need to invest some money and make some unqiue roof construction, like on Veyron Gran Sport. That will be a little touch of real uniqueness.

 

Interesting...

 

Photoshops starting to appear.

 

I wonder if it will have a real roof or the same lp640 style.

 

That sucks so bad!!!!
