Default I drove behind/beside a Reventon for 10 miles (photo)

So one of the 9 Lamborghini Reventons made it's way to St. Louis, and late last night, I had the honor of following on for about 15 miles down one of our highways.

Sorry for the crap pic, but you can sort of make out the exhaust and taillights.

In World War II, fighter planes were fitted with built-in cameras called "gun cameras" so they could get photographic records of kills. Carmakers need to give us the same option for moments like this. Seriously, Toyota and company, get on it!

Its an LP640, not a Reventon.
PS they made 20 Reventons.

+1 for it being an LP640. I like the LP640 better anyway. The Reventon's styling never did it for me

Compare the lower section of the rear of the car - you can see it's an LP640
