Car Information
The color of the all-new, $600,000 Lamborghini Revuelto that I recently drove through the Shawangunk Valley in upstate New York is called Verde Scandalo. That sordid moniker is fitting to the car’s hue, which, slathered on the chunkily flattened two-seat trapezoid, is as lurid and attention-grabbing in the region’s shabby Catskills bungalow towns as a rolling two-ton wedge of phosphorescent gouda. Scandalous also describes the car’s sound. The bombast issuing from Lamborghini Revuelto’s 6.5-liter V-12 engine literally stuns everything that it passes—turkeys teaching their poults to scratch for grubs, construction workers expressing steaming ribbons of asphalt, picnicking hipsters escaped from Mohonk—like a chartreuse freeze ray issuing from a comic book villain’s gun.
