Kode 0, the exclusive Lamborghini Aventador with 'seventies' suit, back for sale

Pebble Beach always brings together the most spectacular and exclusive cars on the planet and this Kode 0 is no exception. Conceived by Ken Okuyama, a designer known for giving shape to models such as the Ferrari Enzo, the Maserati Quattroporte or the Ferrari P4 / 5 from Pininfarina, it is based on a Lamborghini Aventador, but inspiring its body in the sports cars of the 70s, and is now on sale as used in the Classic Driver portal.

This Kode 0, the last of Ken Okuyama's creations since he decided to embark on the design of his own cars, was presented last year at the Monterey show. Only five units have come to be manufactured from this spectacular retro-cut supercar and one of them, owned by Japanese Akihiro Orimoto, has already given time to go on sale.

According to the Classic Driver tab, it has only traveled 2,200 kilometers, so the Kode 0 is practically new. In short, it is a little over a year old and it seems that its current owner has not taken much out of the garage. What is not revealed in the announcement is the price, but it will not be cheap: the Kode 0 announced a price of 1.5 million dollars when it was shown in Pebble Beach, to which we had to add that of the Aventador itself.

The Kode 0, as happened with the kode57 also shown in the California event in 2016, aroused the interest of car enthusiasts with many zeros bank accounts. We're talking about Jay Leno, in this case. The presenter took him to his Jay Leno's Garage program, where they told us all their secrets.

Although the mechanical and electronic part is intact, the good of Okuyama focused on recarrozarlo. The work took him about two years and, according to the designer, his lines are inspired by the "proportions of the dream cars of the 1970s", specifically the Lancia Stratos Zero, the Lamborghini Countach or the Ferrari Moduro.

Thus, with conical and aristadas forms, the Kode 0 boasts a body completely resides and conceived in carbon fiber, so it manages to reduce its weight compared to the Aventador, stopping the scale in 1,550 kilos. In addition, Okuyama has incorporated daytime LED headlights and Novitec wheels of 20 and 21 inches, in the front and rear train respectively.

Mechanically, as we have already pointed out, it does not change with respect to the Lamborghini Aventador, thus equipping the V12 6.5-liter rear propeller with 700 hp, with 690 Nm of maximum torque that we know of the LP700-4 variant of the Italian supercar. Likewise, it has the same Aventador robotic gearbox, the seven-speed ISR and a single clutch, as well as the same suspension. Who will be the lucky one to get their services?
