In the 1970, Carrera offered 1:24, 1:32 and 1:60 scales for slot cars, and the slot-free "Servo" systems which allowed cars to switch lanes, guided by the guard rails on the outside. Due to the many systems offered, and fewer customers (Generation), Neuhierl had to sell his company in 1985, and took his own life. The new owners sold rather cheap products.

An ISR 7-speed transmission is mated to this engine, enabling the car to accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in 3 seconds and reach a maximum speed of 217 mph. Other performance related features include: a push-rod suspension and a cylinder deactivation system that assists in reducing CO2 emission as well as keeping the fuel consumption very low.  
Exterior

The new Roadster features a design language that is similar to the coupe version. However, Lamborghini made a few modifications for the open-top model. These include: a redesigned rear pillar, and the bonnet now comes with a central spinal column that allows better engine cooling and provides better view of the engine. The two-piece roof of the Roadster is made of carbon fiber and features advanced technology. The exterior is available in a two-tone finish whereby; the two roof sections, rear window and the windshield pillar are draped in gloss black, while a light metallic blue coat covers the rest of the body. The Roadster is fitted with 20-inch front and 21-inch rear Dione aluminum-forged wheels.  


Interior

The interior comes with a large LCD screen for instrumentation just like in the coupe version. A separate LCD display that houses stereo control and navigation system function is also included. The seats are made of special leather known as Sabbia Nefertem. Other standard interior features include: anti-slip control, hill start assist, ESP stability control, drive select system, ABS and electronic brake distribution. The 2013 Lamborghini Aventador LP 700-4 Roadster is a supercar to watch out for in the future. The Huayra and the McLaren MP4-12C will prove to be great competitors for the new Aventador.
