You don't often see cars on display at boat shows. But in this case there's a solid reason for a Lamborghini Aventador LP 720-4 50th Anniversario Roadster -- one of just 100 built -- to be showcased at the 2014 Miami International Boat Show.
Gino Gargiulo's Aventador comes with a 48-foot MTI offshore racing boat, customised to match its wealthy owner's car. The customisation includes matching the Aventador's signature headlight and tail-light designs, plus replicating features from the interior, including the steering wheel.
And while the boat's twin 993kW Mercury engines might outgun the car's 529kW 6.5-litre V12, it seems that's not enough watergoing power for the owner, who has ordered a couple of 1213kW engines to replace the Mercury pair.
MTI (Marine Technology Inc) is one of the world's leading race boat manufacturers, and their product starts at eye-watering prices in standard spec. Neither the boatmaker nor the owner have revealed any information about what the Aventaboat customisation cost, but you can expect it wasn't cheap.
