The Lamborghini Aventador S is the most ferocious bull in the line-up with 740 horsepower and various upgrades to the iconic Aventador, it means business in a very strange way. If you asked a child to draw a supercar, this is more or less what they would come up with so let's find out why...
It is impossible to make the car much lighter if you want to retain the V12 naturally aspirated formula. The LaFerrari weighs almost 1,600kg too (well, they also have the batteries). I am pretty sure Lamborghini have done plenty of focus groups and I can bet the majority of their customers want to stay naturally aspirated and a V12 for the flagship car. I remember Pagani also did a ton of focus groups before they built the Huayra. While Pagani wanted to go the turbo route, its customers told them they had to keep the V12 even if they wanted to turbocharge it. And if I am not wrong, going forward Lamborghini will most likely take the hybrid route like what the LaFerrari did which is fantastic news. You see, sometimes it is not necessarily about having the fastest car, rather a car that messes with your senses and stirs your emotion. I just can't imagine a turbocharged Lamborghini supercar ala McLaren 720S. Sure, the coming Urus will be turbocharged, but that is a SUV daily driver which is more acceptable.
Your Aventador S videos (on snow) helped me when I went to its launch in Beirut a couple of weeks ago. I did a pretty cool video with plenty of info! Thank you Shmee for inspiring and always informing us... Cheers from Lebanon!!
Fr. Duffy Fighting 69th hey man! You should definitely consider visiting Lebanon. The country is just amazing and especially in summer!! We have LOTS of touristic areas and delicious food :p
IMO I was young when the Lamborghini Countach was popular in the 80's, it was the sickest car on the planet , and though I loved the Diablo and the Murcielago I never really thought they ever came close to matching the aura and insanity of the Countach, until they released the Aventador!
I remember back when I would watch videos of supercars and thinking that the exhaust seemed a bit quiet, then I quickly disregarded that thought when I stood next to a aventador starting up
Great review!! Absolutely epic!! Once you become a Lamborghini fan, you will always be a Lamborghini fan. For me, it goes all the way back to the Countach when I was a very young kid and nothing else beats it. There are faster cars around, but it is the Lamborghini design language and the awesome sound of the naturally aspirated V12 that does it for me.
first comment from Africa! #Kenya As always, Shmee you're the man when it comes to proper car knowledge!!! Love the info, like always!!! Keep up the great work!
You're welcome!! Thanks for replying!! I've been watching since Nov 2016, but I went back all the way and made my way up to date!! Out here, the wealth exists to enjoy these cars, it's only a matter of time until the infrastructure catches up! Then maybe one day you'll be checking out Super/Hyper/Mega cars in East Africa!!. Once again, I'm a fan, and please keep up the good work mate!
Shmee150 Hi Tim, you have fans on a global scale Tim. Give it 5 years you could have your spot on Top Gear let's face it apart from Chris Harris who has a spot on the show you would be perfect due to the fact you have owned a vast range of car's but also driven well when it comes to number I have no idea but Tim get ready it's on the cards I promise not many You Tubers do what you do and do it with ease and ever so well. Best Regards, Alan B
I sat in an Aventador S in Warsaw (their demo car) and I think it was the exact same spec! The doors, the warm smell of new car and leather, so damn low, so damn aggressive, awesome car!
Eamon Yap yea I agree, the S Roadster is worth more as your not gonna take it out everyday so it’s nice to take it out on summer and convert it but the Coupe is better looking and is slightly faster in acceleration by 0.01
You are brilliant i found you back in 2010 when you were going car spotting but i started to watch your videos in the day when you uploaded the Romanian Car Collection and you're contet is amazing .You have great taste at cars and i hope you will get your dream car.#notificationsquad Cheers!!!
That looks like so much fun Shmee150.What an epic car,admittedly not to everyone's taste.I would buy one if I could afford it because that much raw power must be so addictive.I would only drive it once a week but if you saw me on the road you'd think that Lambo was stolen😂
Lamborghini bought this car a few years until it has to be replaced by some very good updates. Still wish it had a double clutch gearbox. Start putting those in lambos and they take the brand to another level. Nice vid fun car
To me, the looks of the Aventador LP700-4 are the best ever. This S looks good, but not as sharp and agressive as the LP700-4. I d like the open vents, they look amazing. If someone asks me which one I would prefer, I would go for the 'old' Aventador, get some matte black paint on it with orange brake callipers 👌 best looking car ever!
I can't believe you were up at that dealership haha. I take a trip through at least once a month to have a look round. I knew exactly which one it was straight from the thumbnail. Shmee north of the border again, nice one lol
Shmee, great video yet again!! Would you be able to review an R34 GTR? I know they're mad rare but i think we'd all enjoy you reviewing that myth of a car!
Yeah, i thought as much. Just think it would make a really interesting quick video and I'm sure all of us 20 year olds would go crazy for it! The sound of those turbos spooling >.>
@shmee150 in the video at @1:50 its actually a pentagonal design which is exceedingly rare in design language throughout modern and classics. Very interesting to look at.
I think that sound would fit better for SV, This model S is less aggressive looking but sounds more aggressive than an SV. Overall as always amazing car.
Can you try get abother test drive or another passenger drive in the koenigsegg regera in the dry like you did in this video. Btw love your videos and keep up the good work
Huracan-2.5 sec Aventador-2.9 sec I don't get the point of getting the Aventador over the Huracan when the Huracan has got better performance! *Except for the cool factor tho!
Answered your own question. The Huracan is more of the refined race model; notice how there aren't any Aventadors in the Super Trefeo racing line up (that I know of). The Aventador is meant to just be a thrilling car to drive and put a smile on your face.
Kevin Samuel V12 and the way the gearbox smashes you in the back of the head every time you shift.You buy it because it has an amazing and unique character.
Hi Tim, this car screams aggression from the looks to the engine & exhaust sound also it's a neck breaker but could you daily drive the outstanding power house of a car at 740hp and has more torque than a nuclear missile. The only one thing puts me of this car is the gearbox otherwise I'm sold. Great Vlog Tim. Regards , Alan B
Someone should do a summary of car widths. Lots of supercars are as wide as a bus and takes some of the fun out of it when you're constantly worrying about squeezing down tight roads, depending on which country you're in.
How do you get all the money to run/get these supercars? Also please may you do more car spotting videos? I'm a car enthusiast myself and have followed your channel since you had the mclaren 12c new. Loving your videos keep it up!
Great video, thanks - I love this car - it is the essence of super car exotica - there maybe others that are better technically in some aspects but who cares that is not what it's all about - which is why it baffles the hell out of me when people talk about it's lack of storage space/glove box etc..... who gives a sh*t ??? I'm sure Lamborghini decide at the design stage that anyone who does care shouldn't be allowed to buy one !!
with all the recent fuzz over the huracan perfomante (wich i really like) and the mclaren's and the porsche's, many people don't get that the aventador is the only car that hold's the myth of Lamborghini high. like the real myth that defined the miura, countach, diablo.... even if it's not the fastest, it is the most extreme. dominated by it's engine and kicks the shit out of you when you shift gears. it's supposed to not make any sence at all. to be exausting to drive and shout at you and everybody else. while the huracan is very capable, fast and has it's fans, the aventador get's what a Lambo should be like.
I love all the videos you make, but you need a 4K camera. The video quality is good, don't get me wrong, but it would be superb with a high end 4K camera. And with all those cars in the garage, I think money isn't an issue.
I have a high end 4K camera, but I am unable to deal, edit and upload 4K content daily. It simply is impossible within the current way content production is going. If internet speeds go up and there is a codec that supports smaller file sizes of 4K videos then maybe but at this moment it is simply impossible.
I like how there's still the same 10-year old Audi MMI navigation system in the car. Like they can't even invest some money into programming a new one or simply use the new Audi MMI
Just an honest fan suggestion, you have awesome content, but i believe an update on your camera gear and editing will give such a big impact on the quality of your vids.. Please let us watch these wonderful content on more pixels and with a better vid quality..
Unfortunately, there is not always the time to edit the video better. We do if we can and when Ben is around. More pixels than what I have right now is not possible. 4K videos are impossible to deal with. File sizes are too big and upload times too long. The camera gear is totally fine, many other TH-camrs use it. You might want to see me use a DSLR, but I cannot deal with the constant out of focus of the camera.
Whats the SE that you see in the rear view mirror in 11:10-11:15? I'm thinking its ending with and X when you go full throttle? Must be the same :D Cheers from Denmark :) love your vids.. Only a bit jealous of your lifestyle ;)

shmee the type of guy that owns several super cars, but dont know how a exhaust works. lmao
Sorry shmee but i can't understand what you say because that engine sound take all my attention... amazing!
Haha, that's not a bad thing
think you need to get that new microphone ;)

I love the look of that beautiful leather interior. So glad to see it isn't the usual black. Thanks.
I actually fell in love with this car.
Thanks Shmee!

its been 7 years since the first release of this car and its design is still way ahead of 2018..unbelievably breathtaking car
I just followed this exact car about 20 miles from Glasgow to Edinburgh on the M8, what a machine, it is automotive perfection.
first comment from Africa! #Kenya As always, Shmee you're the man when it comes to proper car knowledge!!! Love the info, like always!!! Keep up the great work!
Wow, thanks for watching from Kenya!

I'm from south africa
He's right. You would be amazing! You would just be perfect. Keep up the good videos!
Such an awesome car! Like they took people's dreams and made a car out of them!
Here before the title change.
I sat in an Aventador S in Warsaw (their demo car) and I think it was the exact same spec! The doors, the warm smell of new car and leather, so damn low, so damn aggressive, awesome car!
All you've got to do is look at Tim's smile and you have your answer of how awesome it is 👌🏽👌🏽
I saw an S in Chicago and it's a nice looking car, you really have to see it in person to appreciate the new look lol.
The V12 is a monument 😍💪
The best aventador I've seen so far
Eamon Yap yea I agree, the S Roadster is worth more as your not gonna take it out everyday so it’s nice to take it out on summer and convert it but the Coupe is better looking and is slightly faster in acceleration by 0.01

love your videos keep it up! :)
amazing content everyday keep up with the good work Tim
Great video Tim. It was very informative and entertaining! 👍
Thanks for the support
Nice to watch a channel were someone really is a car lover cool 😉👍
I think this is one of your better reviews, you really captured the emotion of Lamborghnini
Great car.Schmee lives on another planet with the lifestyle he lives trying all the super cars .
That looks like so much fun Shmee150.What an epic car,admittedly not to everyone's taste.I would buy one if I could afford it because that much raw power must be so addictive.I would only drive it once a week but if you saw me on the road you'd think that Lambo was stolen😂
Lamborghini bought this car a few years until it has to be replaced by some very good updates. Still wish it had a double clutch gearbox. Start putting those in lambos and they take the brand to another level. Nice vid fun car
Loving the new front end design, very aggressive!
Woow a raging Lambo with a very very nice Aston interior look and feel....SUPERBE
Beautiful spec for an older aventador S owner.
To me, the looks of the Aventador LP700-4 are the best ever. This S looks good, but not as sharp and agressive as the LP700-4. I d like the open vents, they look amazing. If someone asks me which one I would prefer, I would go for the 'old' Aventador, get some matte black paint on it with orange brake callipers 👌 best looking car ever!
Saw your car today in Meilenwerk, Düsseldorf :D
hey Shmee great video, keep up the good work and also i was just wondering what camera you use
Sony Handycam PJ810
Really nice video, cheers!
I can't believe you were up at that dealership haha. I take a trip through at least once a month to have a look round. I knew exactly which one it was straight from the thumbnail. Shmee north of the border again, nice one lol
Lighter Exhaust ? Sounds Epic ? Gained Power ?
They STRAIGHT PIPED IT !!! xD
Shmee, great video yet again!! Would you be able to review an R34 GTR? I know they're mad rare but i think we'd all enjoy you reviewing that myth of a car!
Not really my kind of car...
Yeah, i thought as much. Just think it would make a really interesting quick video and I'm sure all of us 20 year olds would go crazy for it! The sound of those turbos spooling >.>
Love the design changes: A bit more agressive without over-styling it, well done #lamborghini #volkswagen #VW
Welcome to edinbruh
I would love it in Matte Black Aventador S is my favourite Lamborghini and it's better than the standard Aventador
SuperGT Performance not matte black. It looks like a very expensive chalk board
I love the brown leather in that classic style!
I still love the Diablo though! 😈
It's still an amazing car after 25 years!
I love your videos man keep up doing great work
Thanks for the support!
A few weeks ago I went to Lamborghini Manchester and I saw 2 aventador SVs, an aventador s, a huracan performante and a standard aventador!
@shmee150 in the video at @1:50 its actually a pentagonal design which is exceedingly rare in design language throughout modern and classics. Very interesting to look at.
Scotland is beautiful!
Shmee is the luckiest guy on this planet, he gets to drive all the coolest whips❤️
It makes very sense to drive this around daily
I love this car !! =)
I live in Scotland and I'm close to it and I saw that it was getting test drive
I think that sound would fit better for SV, This model S is less aggressive looking but sounds more aggressive than an SV. Overall as always amazing car.
Can you try get abother test drive or another passenger drive in the koenigsegg regera in the dry like you did in this video.
Btw love your videos and keep up the good work
@ 16:02 the moment Shmee gets confused. Dude, clockwise is up and counterclockwise is down.
It's about 10 meter 26... Right? Love the video's Tim!
Lamborghini aventador king ranch edition.
I think this colour is very very nice!
tim, with a bit of mention, those high intakes at the rear are a modern interpretation of those on the countach
Huracan-2.5 sec
Aventador-2.9 sec
I don't get the point of getting the Aventador over the Huracan when the Huracan has got better performance! *Except for the cool factor tho!
Answered your own question. The Huracan is more of the refined race model; notice how there aren't any Aventadors in the Super Trefeo racing line up (that I know of). The Aventador is meant to just be a thrilling car to drive and put a smile on your face.
Kevin Samuel V12 and the way the gearbox smashes you in the back of the head every time you shift.You buy it because it has an amazing and unique character.
Kevin Samuel from roll the Aventador will smack a Huracan
Huracan dualclutch
Where did you get the 2.5 from? It does not even get close to that!
Sadly lambos are undervalued coz of the naturally aspirated engines!!
Haha.. I could see the torque pull, put you to the back.. great review. 🦅🦅🇺🇸
I love the Aventador and its ridiculousness
Hi Tim, this car screams aggression from the looks to the engine & exhaust sound also it's a neck breaker but could you daily drive the outstanding power house of a car at 740hp and has more torque than a nuclear missile. The only one thing puts me of this car is the gearbox otherwise I'm sold. Great Vlog Tim. Regards , Alan B
The Aventador has a cool back steering and I like the the body they changed the front
Someone should do a summary of car widths. Lots of supercars are as wide as a bus and takes some of the fun out of it when you're constantly worrying about squeezing down tight roads, depending on which country you're in.
Would be a nice car in the collection, tim!
Why don't you purchase one to add to your car collection? Don't resist the urge, you know deep down that you'd like to own your very own Aventador S.
Mwah... no urge deep down inside me. I have my 675LT Spider
THINKS, TIM AND CREW.
Now it's your turn to get one!!!!
How do you get all the money to run/get these supercars? Also please may you do more car spotting videos? I'm a car enthusiast myself and have followed your channel since you had the mclaren 12c new. Loving your videos keep it up!
I answered these questions in videos before ;) Check them out in my history of videos and you find your answers :)
Thanks! I'm only 11 but one day I would like to own a supercar of my own! Keep the good videos up!
it sounds awesome. great interior to ☺
Wow the S sounds better than previous aventador series.
WONDERFUL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
dream car
Awesome!
i love the brown leather
I'm left mixed from it
There is something incongruent with an AARP advert that plays during the Aventador S demo from Schmee 150.
Great video, thanks - I love this car - it is the essence of super car exotica - there maybe others that are better technically in some aspects but who cares that is not what it's all about - which is why it baffles the hell out of me when people talk about it's lack of storage space/glove box etc..... who gives a sh*t ??? I'm sure Lamborghini decide at the design stage that anyone who does care shouldn't be allowed to buy one !!
Shmee you are the boss man
i dont normally comment but, ill give it a shot. Good morning from Texas. Thats all i got. Also why i dont comment
with all the recent fuzz over the huracan perfomante (wich i really like) and the mclaren's and the porsche's, many people don't get that the aventador is the only car that hold's the myth of Lamborghini high. like the real myth that defined the miura, countach, diablo....
even if it's not the fastest, it is the most extreme. dominated by it's engine and kicks the shit out of you when you shift gears. it's supposed to not make any sence at all. to be exausting to drive and shout at you and everybody else. while the huracan is very capable, fast and has it's fans, the aventador get's what a Lambo should be like.
Makes perfect sense to me.
The leather is fabulous. Exactly what I'd put in my car.
Well, maybe a bit darker still.
Omg shmee boss baby just killed my bro😱😱😱
Oh That Guy cancer
This car is insane
I love all the videos you make, but you need a 4K camera. The video quality is good, don't get me wrong, but it would be superb with a high end 4K camera. And with all those cars in the garage, I think money isn't an issue.

If internet speeds go up and there is a codec that supports smaller file sizes of 4K videos then maybe but at this moment it is simply impossible.
Can't wait for the aventador svj, it will be the last v12 without hybrid power.
I like how there's still the same 10-year old Audi MMI navigation system in the car. Like they can't even invest some money into programming a new one or simply use the new Audi MMI
I LOVE Lamborghini's. You magnificent machine!
Shmee should definitely buy one of these
But I am not going to buy one ;)
8m55s - giggling like a little girl! The Lambo got you!
In strata mode, it sounds like an old Lamborghini, which I kinda like.
Just an honest fan suggestion, you have awesome content, but i believe an update on your camera gear and editing will give such a big impact on the quality of your vids.. Please let us watch these wonderful content on more pixels and with a better vid quality..

Yes, that is the Lamborghiniest Lamborghini of all Lamborghinis.
Buy one !
Lamborghini EdinBRUH
The Lamborghiniest Lamborghini is the Murcielago LP670-4 SuperVeloce
Diego Villavicencio Nah the contauch with the wing
Buy one
Shmee150:; nice as always Tim, question Tim, I know you viewed the BMW 8 series concept but are you going to review the BMW Z4 concept any time soon?
Let's hope it is at the IAA in Frankfurt
Whats the SE that you see in the rear view mirror in 11:10-11:15? I'm thinking its ending with and X when you go full throttle? Must be the same :D
