But wait, you say: the original Exelero used a twin turbo V12 yanked from the Maybach 57S, and it only made 700 horsepower. What gives?
Here comes the bad news, boys and girls: the Exelero that Lamborghini Geneva will build you is based on the Dodge Viper, not anything that started life as a Maybach sedan. In fact, the company has yet to release pictures of a completed car, which doesn’t bode well for either build quality or public interest. No matter how you slice it, $670,000 is an awful lot of money to pay for a re-bodied Viper, especially when you can’t see one up close and personal. On second thought, maybe that Knight XV isn’t so ugly after all.
