$4.7 Million Model Cars

The Lamborghini Aventador Miniature Comes with a Heavy Price Tag

— September 14, 2011 — Autos
High-end miniature model cars are certainly an alternative for car lovers to indulge in luxury and speed, and the Lamborghini Aventador miniature replica created by German model maker Robert Gülpen proves no exception.

This 1:8 version of the Lamborghini Aventador miniature is made from carbon and has gold linings and diamonds encrusted almost everywhere in its handcrafted interior and exterior, making it the world's most expensive car model. Gülpen used the original blueprints of the Italian model to create this masterpiece. After 500 hours of work and with the help of a computer modeling data, the artist developed a perfect miniature model that boasts 1/100 mm tread of solid gold, diamonds on the seats and precious gemstones.

The auction for this model is in December at New York. The hype for the Lamborghini Aventador miniature is at an all-time high, for evident reasons. High-end miniature collectors start your engines and get ready to empty your pockets, if you want to experience life on the fast lane with this mini Lamborghini.
