Lamborghini Aventador J speedster leaked ahead of Geneva unveiling
 
Lamborghini Aventador J speedster leaked ahead of Geneva unveiling



Back in January we heard rumors that Lamborghini would bring two new vehicles to the Geneva Motor Show. Once the Lamborghini MLC SUV was ruled out, that left the Aventador Roadster and a surprise for which guesses have ranged from the Gallardo replacement to the production Sesto Elemento to something else.

That something else appears to be the car shown above. Reportedly dubbed Avendador J, it's a minimalist speedster variant of Lamborghini's flagship supercar, and it got an early reveal this weekend at Czech website AutoForum. The car loses its roof entirely, has a tiny windscreen, and reportedly dumps all unnecessary amenities like air conditioning and an audio system. Any additional weight-saving measures Lamborghini has put into effect will be revealed tomorrow, when the car debuts at the Volkswagen Group's preview gala.

There's much speculation online as to whether the Aventador J will be produced an any number. In truth, it doesn't even matter. If Lamborghini builds any, it will sell all of them, immediately, at whatever price it asks.

Now, Lamborghini also released a video teasing the car's Geneva unveiling, which ends with the hashtag #Unica on the screen. That translates to "only" in English, which could suggest that the Aventor J is, in fact, a one-off.

Has anything at all not leaked out this year before the Geneva show. Its getting a bit ridiculous . I do like the look of the Lambo and the fact that its rumored to be a one off has got my attention

damn, lambo's been getting better and better

I have a feeling this will be a limited run. Something like the Reventon but maybe even lower numbers like the Sesto Elemento. They can charge whatever they want and their customers will pay.

What does the J stand for ??????????????? Its driving me nuts. I have looked and looked and nobody anywhere can explain the J. I personally think its a stupid letter to have in the name of a car unless it comes after another letter like the Jag XJ

Lamborghini Aventador J Geneva star conceived, built in six weeks
 
Lamborghini Aventador J Geneva star conceived, built in six weeks



This year's Geneva Motor Show served up a scintillating buffet of vehicles, but the Lamborghini Aventador J may very well have been our favorite. With no roof, no windshield and all of the insane running gear of the standard Aventador, the roadster is the embodiment of exotic. But according to Top Gear, the car went from design sketch to reality in record time. Designer Filippo Perini told TG he first sketched up the Aventador J in mid-January after CEO Stephan Winkelmann asked his crew to to come up with something special for Geneva.

Despite the apparent similarities between the Aventador and the new Aventador J, the two models share only a handful of body components, including the front hood, fenders, headlights and rear fenders. Everything else is bespoke just for the concept.

If you like what you see as much as we do and want to take one home, too bad. The world's only Aventador J is already sold to an unnamed collector for the lofty sum of $2.74 million at current conversion rates.
