Last Lamborghini Aventador Coupe

Friends, the end of an automotive era is upon us. Or rather, it'salmostupon us. The car you see here is the final Lamborghini Aventador coupe to come fromSant'Agata Bolognese, though technically, it hasn't been built just yet. That didn't stop interested parties from bidding this Aventador LP 780-4 Ultimae well beyond the seven-figure mark. When the hammer dropped, this special Lambo sold for $1,603,125.

That hefty price doesn't simply include the car, however.Lamborghinihas entered the world of non-fungible tokens – NFTs – by partnering with artists Krista Kim and Steve Aoki, as well as the INVNT GROUP. They created a one-of-one NFT that features a digital version of the real-life car, placed into a digital world resembling Mars. Yes, we're talking about the planet, but it's a digital world where the sky isn't remotely the limit because hey,there is no sky.

Kim and Aoki didn't merely create the NFT for this specialAventador. They worked with Lamborghini's Ad Personam customization program on the exterior finish and interior trim of the actual car, taking a minimalist approach to make it as unique as the NFT. The paint is a mix of Blue Nethuns and Nero Noctis that fades from a lighter shade on the front to pure black at the rear.

More Lamborghini NFTs:

Inside is awash with black surfaces and orange trim, though the orange also has a gradient effect similar to the exterior. It's inspired by "the Mars Metaverse Sunset" which presumably is part of the NFT. We saypresumablybecause the only person seeing it is the Lambo's owner and associated parties. However, the video below does offer a sample of the digital project.

In addition to the car and the NFT, the buyer of thisAventador Utimaeis awarded all kinds of VIP treatment from Lamborghini. That includes exclusive previews of future limited-edition Lamborghini models, an exclusive invite to activities with the local Lambo dealership, a private tour of the Lamborghini Museum, and a meet/greet with the NFT artists.

As for the car, it will be built later this year and should be in the buyer's hands by September.

Interesting NFTs
Red Cactus
I created this piece with Cinema 4D and Octane Render. I had an idea of creating a cactus / aloe type plant only using a few shapes and colors. I was really excited how it turned out. The contrast and color palette reminds me of a space-like desert.

Traffic
Traffic explores a crossroads between the metaverse & reality through organized chaos. The complexity of this aural / visual landscape demanded over 200 hours of design time between Slimesunday & 3LAU. Every detail of this piece was built from scratch, from the reflective puddled pavement to the stabbing synthesis of the song. We think we'll be spending a lot more time in the metaverse in the future, don't you?

Fidenza is by far my most versatile algorithm to date.

Block Chain Dungeon
Once upon a time... a little boy named Leo loved to paint, draw and experiment. He also loved to play with blocks and chains, which drew him again and again into the rooms of his friends Michel and Angelo. Often they also met in virtual rooms of Cryptovoxels, Decentraland, Somnium Space or Sandbox to create new inventions, read books about new technologies, or just swing the brushes. But on this day something gigantic happened. A good friend of Leo came to visit and brought his girlfriend Mona, who wanted a piece of Leo's art on her skin. This was the birth of the NFT's, as Leo developed Non Fungible Tattoos in the Block Chain Dungeon of Michel and Angelo. From that day on people from all over the world came to get NFT's from Leo or one of his students, like "Skeenee the rat", who controls the NFT machine with his laptop. A new age began.
