    Default Lamborghini Aventador J Roadster: No roof, No windshield, No Problem


    http://ca.autoblog.com/2012/03/05/la...built-for-two/

    The Aventador J adheres to a pretty simple recipe, namely dispense with everything unnecessary to going fast.

    Let's cut to the chase here: Yes, it's a real car, and yes, it's for sale. Lamborghini makes that point clear at the end of its press release, and we imagine the furor among the 1% to get that first spot in the queue will be enough to rival the 99% on iPad 3 launch day.

    The Aventador J adheres to a pretty simple recipe, namely dispense with everything unnecessary to going fast, like the climate control and nav systems. Lambo has also given the roof and windshield of the Aventador LP700-4 coupe the Sawzall treatment, fitting small wind deflectors instead. The company says it's going for a two-seat sport-bike effect, so it's done some other interesting things to lower the curb weight of the J.

    Notable here is the use of a new carbon fibre fabric called "Carbonskin" that Lamborghini claims is soft enough to be used on the seats and interior trim. Carbon fibre is used in more traditional ways throughout the rest of the car – in the bumpers, designed to increase downforce, the front air scoop, complete with winglets, and in the huge rear diffuser.

    Powered by the same 700-hp 6.5-litre 12-cylinder as the standard Aventador, the all-wheel-drive J is capable of speeds over 300 km/h, meaning the driver and passenger had better have their helmets at the ready.

    Love the styling. A couple of removable motorcycle style windscreens would be cool though....to help lower the bugs to the face effect when just out on the town or highway driving.

    The curve behind the headrest... that should hide an acrylic bubble window that you can pull over your head.

    They're certainly big, but I don't know if they are the BEST I've tasted.

    pretty sweet looking ride, but I wouldn't get one.

    I think it would look better with a traditional windshield.
