Celebrating a milestone brings out the best of the raging bull, encouraging designers in Sant'Agata to get even wilder and edgier. Earlier this year, the appropriately wild and edgy Centenario was launched to celebrate what would have been Ferruccio Lamborghini's 100th birthday. Now, it's getting a drop top cousin.

Although it's a convertible, the Centenario Roadster won't ever be confused with your hairdresser's MX5. Power comes from a V12, pumping out 770 hp (566 kW) for a 2.9 second sprint to 100 km/h (62 mph). Top speed is 350 km/h (217 mph), undoubtedly helped by the car's 1,570 kg (3,461 lb) kerb weight. 

Lamborghinis are known for being imposing to drive, both at the limit and around town. Perhaps with this in mind, engineers have fitted the Centenario with rear-wheel steering. At low speed, it turns in the opposite direction to the front wheels for a tighter turning circle, at high speed they turn in the same direction for a feeling of greater stability. The way the system operates changes depending on which drive mode is selected.
