Throughout the history of the automotive realm, few cars have evoked the raw emotion and sheer adrenaline of the human mind quite like the Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4. Capable of captivating people from all generations of life with its devilish blend of performance and jaw-dropping design, this raging bull has charged into the hearts of drivers and onlookers alike. To call the Aventador LP700-4s design iconic, would almost feel like an understatement. The razor-sharp edges, scissor doors, and low-slung stance exude an aura of both sophistication and ferocity. Each curve and contour serve a purpose beyond aesthetics, with aerodynamics harnessed to keep this untamed beast firmly planted on the pavement while achieving blistering fast speeds.
Furthering its already aesthetically pleasing presence, this LP700-4 has been through the hands of world-renowned Alex Vega, known as 'The Guy' in the custom Lambo world and owner of The Auto Firm and creator of Avorza in Miami, Florida. Formerly owned by two-time MLB All-Star and two-time MLB Home Run Derby champ, Yoenis Céspedes, he would commission Alex Vega to completely transform his beloved Aventador. Having completed cars for numerous A-list celebrities and sports athletes from around the world, like Floyd 'Money' Mayweather and the fastest man on the planet, Usain Bolt, the outcome would be this show-stopping one-of-one Lambo. With a customization price tag totaling well over $100,000, this Aventador was draped inside and out with a one-off Satin Black and “Metallic Blue Edition” color scheme that gives it a truly sinister look. Fitted with custom Avorza AV3 forged wheels that incorporate the same colors as the body, they complete the car’s mesmerizing stance. When the sun goes down, simply flip a switch and the custom LED blue lights under the car and in the engine casing will light up the night.
Stepping inside the LP700-4’s cockpit is like entering a luxury-filled, futuristic realm reserved for a lucky few, as it has been given the same one-off custom Avorza treatment by Alex Vega. The seats match the overall Satin Black and “Metallic Blue Edition” theme and offer a comfortable ride. Vega also added a custom stereo system for the cabin and built a custom amp and case that is placed in the front hood and displays Yoenis Céspedes' name.
The driving experience of this 2013 bull can be described as nothing short of exhilarating. With a mid-mounted DOHC 48-valve V-12 monster that produces a thrilling 691 horsepower, it’s not a car for the faint of heart; it demands respect, extracting a commitment from its driver that borders on obsession. For those willing to embrace the challenge, the reward is an adrenaline high that resonates long after the engine and custom Avorza exhaust are silenced. Capable of a 2.9-second 0 to 60 time and a top speed of 217 miles per hour, it is in a league of its own among almost all supercars. According to the clean CARFAX® report, this car has seen previous service at Lamborghini Houston and is said to perform very well when driven.
The Lamborghini Aventador was, and always will be, an untamed beast that leaves an indelible mark on the automotive world and one that transports the driver and passenger into a realm of sensory overload. Enhanced customization by one of the top shops in the country for one of the biggest names in Major League Baseball at the time, this 2013 Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4 is an enduring testament to the allure of raw power and beauty in its purest form.
