Lamborghini officially unveiled the Aventador J at the 2012 Geneva Motor Show. The roofless and windowless concept car uses the same V12 engine as the standard Aventador, producing 700hp for a top speed of 186mph managed through a lightweight seven-speed automated transmission. The car does not have air conditioning or radio to save further weight for a total of 3,472 pounds (1,575kg).
The car presented at the Geneva show was the only unit to be produced, and was sold for $2.8 million. The car was specially made for a close relation.
The J label was thought to have come from Appendix J in the FIA manual that describes the technical specifications of race cars. However, during an interview with designer Filippo Perini, it was revealed that the ‘J’ actually stands for Jota, in reference to a 1970s one off Lamborghini Miura Jota, which also conformed to the FIA’s Appendix J regulations.
