This car shown here is a 2017 Lamborghini Centenario Roadster (HLA06698), and it’s 1 of just 20 total roadster examples built for the entire world. This unique example is finished in a color known as ‘Giallo Orion’ and is reportedly the only Centenario example to feature a silver finish on the wheel blades. Inside the cockpit of this Centenario Roadster is a beautiful Nero Ade Alcantara/leather interior with Nero stitching, and some other unique elements include the Bumpers, mirrors and a-pillars all also painted in the same exterior color ‘Giallo Orion’, making for an extremely unique specification overall. The Lamborghini Centenario is a limited production model that was constructed using the Lamborghini Aventador SV as the base. The Centenario, which means centenary in both Spanish and Italian, was built to celebrate the founder of Automobili Lamborghini in 1963, Ferruccio Lamborghini’s 100th birthday (April 1916-February 1993), and was shown fittingly during the 2016 Geneva Motor Show, exactly 100 years after he was born. The Centenario model was styled by the world famous Italian automobile designer, Filippo Perini, as well as Portuguese automobile designer, Nelson Simões. The Centenario was the first ever Lamborghini to feature 3 exhaust tips, an all new infotainment system consisting of a new 10.1-inch portrait screen, and rear-wheel steering. Interestingly, it’s believed that the Centenario is equipped with the world’s largest rear diffuser of any production car ever built, and that’s complimented by a myriad of other aerodynamic bits such as a twin-deck splitter at the front, and more. The Centenario retains the SV’s carbon fiber monocoque chassis along with the aluminium front and rear subframes.
