Lamborghini, the renowned car maker is celebrating its 50th anniversary by creating a limited edition version of its popular model Aventador. Called the LP720-4 50 Anniversario Edition, the commemorative edition will have a production run of numbered 100 units only. The anniversary edition will be officially unveiled at the Shanghai Motor Show this Saturday.

The Car With a Tweaked Engine is Capable of a top Speed of 217 MPH
The car is capable of a top speed of 217 miles per hour and its body is aerodynamically more efficient to handle such high speed because of a special carbon fiber aero kit.

It is called ‘Giallo Maggio’ which is Italian for Yellow May. It is not yet known if all the 100 units will be released in the same color or other color combinations will be offered.
