Lamborghini kicked off its 10-day Aventador LP700-4 Roadster media launch and dealer-education program on Monday, and it started off with a bang.

Five new Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4 Roadsters took to the south runway of one of the busiest United States airports for a photo shoot, some video and some fun.

The marque received special authorization from the Federal Aviation Administration and a go-ahead from Miami-Dade County. The Bulls exceeded the passenger-jet takeoff speed, which on a runway is 240-290 km/h. The Lambos clocked 338 km/h.

The company was quick to point out in its press release that “due to integrated planning on behalf of Miami-Dade officials and the FAA, there was no impact on flight arrivals and departures.”

Personally, we'd taxi on a plane all day if the runway festivities included watching five Aventadors play on the tarmac.

The cars also posed for a photo shoot in front of a Boeing 777.

The party began with an unveiling at Lummus Park in Miami Beach, and then the ceremonies continued with a 50-vehicle parade down Collins Avenue before heading to the airstrip.

The Aventador was revealed in Geneva in 2011. It uses 700-hp V12 for motivation, achieving a top speed of 217 mph.

Lamborghini Veneno makes its debut in Geneva
The Lamborghini Veneno supercar that will debut later today in Geneva and, along with the the McLaren P1 and the LaFerrari. The Veneno is reported to mark Lamborghini's 50th anniversary, and will be built in a production run of just three, each with a price tag of around $4.6 million and each one bearing a color of the Italian flag (green, white or red). And no, Richie Rich, you can't have one, because all three are already sold.The Veneno is based on the Aventador though it wears a completely different carbon fiber body that's even more extreme than other recent hypercars from Lamborghini, like the Reventon. It will almost certainly be powered by Lamborghini's 6.5-liter V12 producing 750 horsepower, while a seven-speed single-clutch transmission will carve up that output all the way up to the Veneno's top speed of 354 Km per hour.
