The 2016 [Lamborghini Aventador](https://fridayswatchlist.com/search?make=Lamborghini&model=Aventador) LP700-4 Roadster just sold for $416,000, which is strong money given its low mileage and impressive options list.
This Aventador is a serious piece of machinery. With only 10,000 miles on the clock, it’s a low-mileage collector's dream. The 6.5-liter V12 engine paired with a seven-speed ISR automated manual transmission delivers that signature Lamborghini thrill. This particular car is finished in the eye-catching Arancio Argos with Nero Ade leather and orange Q-Citura stitching, which makes it not just a fast car but a visually stunning one. The $77,000 in options, including $30,000 in carbon fiber accents and those striking 20" and 21" Dione forged wheels, elevate it even further. For buyers in the luxury sports car market, this kind of spec is what they crave.
When we look at the selling price of $416,000, it’s worth noting that the fair value estimate was $428,900, putting this sale about 3% below fair value. That’s a reasonable outcome in today’s market, especially considering the 72 bids that drove up interest. The competitive bidding indicates there’s a healthy demand for cars like this one, even if it ultimately sold for slightly less than what might be expected.
The community had some strong opinions on this sale. One buyer commented, "I should have paid more. Definitely a 500k retail car. Bought extremely well." That reflects the sentiment that this Aventador has a lot going for it and could command even higher prices in the right setting.
For buyers hunting a similar car, keep an eye on the options list. Cars with extensive custom features, especially in the luxury segment, tend to hold their value better. This Aventador’s options added significant allure and justify why it fetched such a strong price. Always check for the condition and the mileage, but don’t overlook the impact of a well-chosen spec.
