Shooting The World's Most Expensive Production Car
One can only consider the Veneno an extremely fascinating machine.
Twelve humans have walked on the moon, yet only three humans will own a
Lamborghini Veneno coupe.
The Italian automaker claims that its latest handcrafted $4 million supercar is "extremely exclusive," but we would venture to call that a gross understatement. Consider that
Bugatti is making 450 Veyrons,
Ferrari crafted 399 Enzos and

959 supercars - you don't see any of those "extremely exclusive" cars on even a monthly basis. Now ponder the news that

After grasping the productions numbers (or the lack thereof), we consider ourselves rather lucky to have secured the only existing Veneno on the planet for a recent photo shoot in California's Mojave Desert (of course we asked to drive it, but no media has ever been allowed to drive it above walking speeds). After its arrival at the
Geneva Motor Show earlier this year, the coupe made its North American debut at the recent
Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance. The day after the show, it traveled by enclosed truck to our secret photo location before being wrapped up securely and shipped by air back to Sant'Agata Bolognese, Italy.
