VEHICLE : 2000th Lamborghini Aventador Made Within Two Years

It looks like the recent economic crisis hasn’t hit the world’s most expensive carmakers. Not in a bad way, at least. Last year saw Ferrari set the best financial results in its 66-year history, and now fellow Italian supercar maker Lamborghini has announced that the Aventador’s production run has hit the 2000 unit mark within just two years.

That’s twice as fast as the old V12 Murcielago supercar, which took closer to five years to reach the same milestone. The production line in Sant’Agata is working at full speed to meet orders of both Coupe andRoadster versions of the Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4, with waiting lists stretching as long as over a year.

Only 4,000 units of the 700 PS V12 supercar will be made, 99 less than the Murcielago. If it continues on this way, it will run out sooner rather than later. Four years is an awfully short time to halt a model’s production run, especially when its predecessor took nine whole years to reach its end. Talk about first world problems, eh?
