The Aventador SVJ is a piece of art. You really need to see this car live, touch it, look at it, sit in it. Unbelievable. It drives like crap though (gearbox is ancient tech), even if the engine is a masterpiece. (Straight line) performance is pretty bad for such a car in my opinion, only at speeds above 220/230 kph, it really drives away (slowly) from my Performante. What a shame. With the right gearbox, this car would have been a monster.
My son said if he had a lot of money, he would put a SVJ in his living room, just as a piece of art.
The next Aventador gen could finally put McLaren under pressure but knowing Lamborghini (and especially the VW Group behind it), I am pretty sure that performance will be great this time but the price will be also much higher, so no real alternative to the bang for the buck approach of McLaren.
