Only 20 Reventons will be made at a price tag of 1 million euros plus taxes (AUD$1.67M) and all of these are already sold and will be delivered in 2008. The Reventon recently picked up the “World’s Most Beautiful Automobile 2007” award in the special models category of the award “L’Automobile pi Bella del Mondo” (The Word’s most Beautiful Automobile).
