New Tonino Lamborghini Tauri 88: More Than Just Expensive, Offers Genuine Computing Power

Things named Lamborghini should be powerful, that must be a rule somewhere. Luxury mobile phones are a weird business. They will often feature hilariously outdated technology, or will simply be regular phones with expensive shit glued to them.

Conspicuous consumption is usually the only reason to buy them, but here’s one of only a handful that we can actually get behind. It was made by Tonino Lamborghini, the design company started by Ferruccio Lamborghini’s son, and is sold by the car company Ferruccio started.

In addition to actually being attractive, the phone boasts a 2.3GHz quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 801 processor, 3GB of RAM, 64GB of internal storage which is expandable, and a 5-inch display with 1920x1080 resolution. The back camera packs 20MP and the 3,200 mAh battery is good for 35 hours of continuous use. It will set you back $6,000, which actually isn’t much considering what some of these things go for. But only 1,947 will be made, so better hurry up and grab one. The dashboard you see in these photos is a Riva Aquarama once owned by Ferruccio Lamborghini and powered by 2 Lambo V12 engines.
