German Dealer Offers Upcoming Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4 for Sale

From the same German car dealer that listed the production version of the Lamborghini Sesto Elemento concept for sale comes our next story on future models up for grabs. This time, exotic car dealer Auto Salon Singen is advertising the sale of the upcoming successor to the Lamborghini Murcielago, which the company names Aventador LP700-4. The forthcoming Italian supercar is listed on the site at a net price of €260,420 (US$346,500) or €309,900 (US$412,300) with 19% tax. There's even a list with performance specs and standard equipment features.

Up until now, Lamborghini has only released a few official details about the Murcielago's replacement, mostly concentrated on the flagship model's newly developed 6.5-liter V12 engine that tips the scales at just 235 kg or 518 lbs, and churns out 700HP at 8,250 rpm and a maximum torque of 690 Nm (479.4 lb-ft) at 5,500 rpm.

However, a recently leaked dealer order guide provided us a few more bits of information including preliminary performance specs such as the upcoming supercar's 0 to100 km/h (62 mph) sprint time of 2.9 seconds and its top speed of 350 km/h (217 mph).
