So it's going to follow a similar design to the Murcielago Roadsters, then. Not bad, because those are ridiculously good looking cars. Probably going to have a pain in the ass roof though.
Edit* I take that back. Looks like it has a split design which may allow the roof to fit in the trunk.
 
Like the Diablo and Murcielago before it, it looks like it's wearing a bad toupee.
 
Aventador Roadster revealed
has a hard top that can be removed by hand in “a few seconds” and weighs just 6 kg (13 lbs). The carbon fiber roof uses the firm’s Forged Composite technology, developing a material stronger than titanium but less dense.

Because of the new roof, the car’s rear pillars had to be redesigned to provide additional strength when driving without the roof. These also provide extra ventilation to the power unit and offer more rollover protection.

Lamborghini’s engineers have installed a powered rear windscreen that can control airflow over the vehicle, as well as the level of noise coming from the engine that passengers can hear while driving with the roof down. On top of the front windscreen is a wind deflector that promises to “deliver almost complete calm” in the cabin when the roof is removed.

In addition, the engine cover now features a “spinal column” with two lines of hexagonal windows, while the scissor doors have a chamfered edge for the frameless windows, providing a tight finish into the carbon fiber roof.

It looks nice but the light blue on it looks bad.

The Murcielago R-GT/SV did a fairly good job "blending" in with the other FIA GT cars because the body design was still smooth & curvy, with just a large diffuser & spoiler placed on.

The Aventador is really a lot of angles to give it a menacing look, so it will be a very interesting car to have the standard racing modifications applied to it by Reiter. 💡 Hopefully, this new V12 holds up better to racing as well. The old 6.5 didn't do well until towards the end of its life.

Well now that GT1 is dead, there is no point into making a racing machine out if. Especially since the Gallardo GT3 is doing not too bad in the GT3 world.
 
The Aventador shouldn't suffer the usual issues affecting roofless cars as it has a Carbon Monocoque.... therefore the performance differences vs the hartop will be pretty much irrelevent.
 
To be honest, I don't give a toss about the performance differences. Who cares if you can beat a Ferrari in a drag race, you're driving a Lamborghini roadster with a screaming V12 behind you, the [hopefully] open road in front of you, and the thing practically screams "look at me!" It's one of the most juvenile cars on the market, and I love it.
 
Despite the fact that it is still a huge car, the roadster makes it look a lot smaller, somehow. I never really like roadsters but the Aventador Roadster is really growing on me.
