Lamborghini has announced the Centenario – an exclusive model to celebrate founderFerruccio Lamborghini's birth.

The Lamborghini Centenario will be produced in extremely limited numbers. Just 20 coupes and 20 roadsters will be manufactured and already all 40 vehicles have been sold. The price? A simple 1.75-million Euros including tax. That's R29-million!

The Centenario's naturally-aspirated V12 engine pushes out 566kW and it'll smash 0-100 kph in just 2.8 seconds thanks to all-wheel drive. What's even more terrifying is it will go from 0-300 km/h in 23.5 seconds and the top speed is claimed to be more than 350kph. The car weighs 1 520kg thanks to amonocoque and body in full carbon fiber. In terms ofaerodynamic design, there's an extending rear wing which provides more downforce at high speeds. Also new isrear-wheel steering which provides increased agility and stability. When you step inside the cabin, you'll see a newtouchscreen that provides connected infotainment, including internet browsing and Apple CarPlay.
