    New Lamborghini

    Teaser shot of a new Lamborghini. Further info is being revealed at 21:00 on October 1st. It's almost certainly the runout SV version of the Murcielago which is due to be launched at Paris I think.


    Re: New Lamborghini

    ...aha! As much as I like to see these Lambos, I ask my self how wealthy all of these Special Edistions are....?

    Re: New Lamborghini

    Could be a Lambo SUV!

    Re: New Lamborghini

    I loooooove it. Lambo designers take an idiom or vocabulary of just a few design elements and go ALL THE WAY with them and the result is brilliant!

    Not "hollywood" low mentality, popular appeal crap; but highly intelligent design/styling which is fantastic to see.

    Not wild or excessive with a one-liner punch line that kills but can't be re-experienced except habitually.

    Instead Lambo goes as "out there" as you can get and still be something you can't take your eyes off of. Like real art: you go back to the same art object again and again and see more; you see things you hadn't seen the last time you looked.

    I'm not a big fan of "Origami" cars but Lambo takes that as a starting point and brings it to absolute perfection.

    WOW.

    From the rear profile it looks more like a Miura to me. Can't wait to see what it is.

    It would be funny if it's a 4-door sports sedan .

    Re: New Lamborghini

    Now Murcielago SV is a car I'm really excited to see . Pity they wont ditch the 4wd, but maybe thats a good thing

    Re: New Lamborghini

    Looks promising. Cant wait to see more!

    Re: New Lamborghini

    The SV is definately the most likely answer. It looks like Lambo have added some Reventon inspired bodywork cues.


    Re: New Lamborghini

    Is this the hard core version of the murci which was spotted testing a few months ago and rumoured to be RWD?

    Re: New Lamborghini

    Yes, it's the lightweight version with more power. The Superleggera variant of the Murci if you like. And it will have 4wd not 2wd. Lamborghini regard 4wd as their signature these days and Stefan Winkelman their CEO has said it is necessary to control such power safely.

    I hope it's not a sedan!

    Re: New Lamborghini

    i think its the veloce too.. the rear diffusor is in carbon, they will only do this if they want to gain weight. on the murci and the G its in plastic

    Re: New Lamborghini

    If you look at the area the pic covers I think it's safe to say it is the rear of a facelifted Murci with some Reventon styling cues. A run out model will need fresh styling to persuade buyers to sign up for this car.

    From Inside Line :

    "IL Insider: Lamborghini Concept for Paris Enters New Territory

    SANT'AGATA BOLOGNESE, Italy - The car Lamborghini will unveil at the 2008 Paris Auto Show will be something completely different, Inside Line has learned. Following the release of the teaser photo for the concept, sources in Italy today told IL: "You have no idea. There have been phone calls and e-mails from every country on Earth."

    IL sources also say the Paris car will not be at all retro in the fashion of 2006's Miura concept, nor will it be so closely influenced by the Reventón as so many people seem to think.

    So we should not expect to arrive in Paris and see just another Versace version, or a Super Veloce, or even the obvious Superleggera something or other.

    What we should expect is a four-door Lamborghini high-luxury gran turismo with the engine in front but behind the front axle, most likely sharing the architecture with the next Audi A8. "Safe to say," says our source, "that they have every resource available from the family of companies." Rumors of any tie-in with the Panamera architecture, given recent Volkswagen-Porsche developments, "are out of the question."

    We are also advised to not expect anything warm and predictable harking back to a Marzal, an Islero, an Espada, a Jarama or an Urraco. And, it can here be inferred, no super SUV.

    IL learned that the project began less than five months ago and was green-lighted independently by Lamborghini bosses before they sought Ingolstadt's approval. The goal with the new four-door is to bring the brand out to a wider luxury sporting public. The showcar has been constructed completely in Italy, purportedly in the Sant'Agata studios with the assistance of some Audi design workers.

    So, it seems that the big story in Paris is bound to be the advent of the luxury exotic sedans: Lamborghini's four-door is joined by Porsche's Panamera, and we eagerly await the definitive iteration of the Aston Martin Rapide.

    "Lamborghini is at a point where it can set off in new and plausible directions with the entire brand image," says our source. "In a sense, it needs to be able to tell customers what they ought to like about the brand. The experts are at Lamborghini." In this vein, IL also learned that no advance focus groups were convened to get approval of likely heavy-hitter customers.

    In addition, we learned that this new super sedan is meant to do comparatively significant volumes and carry a range of engines which includes the current V10 in the Gallardo and probably the V12 from the Murciélago. While getting down to a V6 is improbable, a new-generation V8 is likely for a base model. "

    It's OK when you have 2-3 models with 2/3 variations.

    It is NOT OK with Porsche's case. 4 model ranges and the 911 has 40 variants.

    Re: New Lamborghini

    one thing i know for sure, it will look better than the Panamera :P
