With crowds flocking to see the fearsome sports car's sleek lines, The ultra-rare Lamborghini Centenario made its North American debut in Los Angeles on Saturday.

 

According to report, only 40 examples of the car - 20 coupes and 20 convertibles will be made, all of which have now been sold for a cool $1.9million each.

 

The vehicle, which goes from 0-62mph in 2.8 seconds and hits top speeds of 217mph, made its American debut at the Petersen Automotive Museum in Los Angeles Saturday morning, Robb Report said.

 

 

As its name implies, the Centenario was commissioned in recognition of the first centenary of the birth of the company's founder, Ferruccio Lamborghini, who was born on April 28, 1916.

 

The Centenario the most powerful engine ever built by the company - a 776 horsepower, naturally aspirated V-12 monster and its carbon-fiber body makes it lightweight and aerodynamic.

 

It weighs just 3,351lbs, giving it a weight-to-horsepower ratio of 4.34lbs per horsepower. Its interior is custom-designed for each buyer, and features lightweight carbon-fiber seats.

 

 

The car keeps the traditional Lamborghini sleekness, but with a sharp edge thanks to a series of aerodynamic ridges and fins.

 

The vehicle was exhibited as part of a 'Lamborghini Cruise-in' event in which other Lamborghini owners were encouraged to bring along their own cars for a public display.

 

The car made its world debut in March at the 2016 Geneva Auto Show in Switzerland.
