3 Reventon Roadsters are going to Singapore
Thumbs up for Singapore 
Roadster revolution
THREE units of the limited edition Lamborghini Reventón Roadster - priced at 1.1 million euros (S$2.3 million) each before tax - are headed here in January. Only 15 units of this exquisite convertible are available worldwide.
According to Lamborghini Singapore boss Melvin Goh, these three buyers had 'missed out' on the Reventón Coupe previously, so they made sure they put in their orders early for the Roadster.
The Reventón Coupe was unveiled two years before the Roadster and it was also a limited edition series, with only 20 units built.
As a collector's item, the Reventón Roadster is certainly extreme, even by Lamborghini standards. The mid-engined open-top sports car is based on the Murcielago but with aviation-inspired design reflected by the carbon fibre bodywork in matt grey paintwork.
Powered by a 6.5-litre V12 engine with 670 hp, it has to be the ultimate convertible. Zero to 100 kmh takes place in the blink of an eye - or 3.4 seconds to be exact - and with a top speed of 330 kmh, it also has to be the ultimate hairdryer.
Inside, the all-wheel-drive roadster has aircraft-style displays. The traditional analogue instrumentation has been replaced with transreflective and transmissive LCDs.

If tax was 100% in singapore they might be paying 4.6M singapore dollars not US dollars, however i think tax in singapore is more like 200% or more, what confuses me is that i thought all reventons were made in LHD, one cannot register a LHD car in Singapore so i really don't know whats the point.
