It takes a lot of guts to paint your car the color of dark chocolate. But when the car in question is a super car that looks like the wing of a fighter jet, you can get away with pretty much anything. So there is nothing wrong with this Matte Brown Lamborghini Aventador, but it may not be everybody’s cup of tea.
The Matte Brown Lamborghini Aventador, which we suspect is a wrap, certainly looks pretty unique. In fact it could very well be the only car of its kind in this color anywhere in the world right now. And the fact that it’s a Roadster means that it boasts, in effect, a two-tone finish, as the roof and pillars are exposed carbon fiber and the wheels are gloss black.
So what do you think of this color for the Aventador? It makes the car look a bit sad, doesn’t it?
