A friend of mine has this on order... The only thing no-one appears to be able to confirm is whether the car will have a fixed open roof (a la 550 Barchetta) OR whether the car will be a proper convertible like the 360 Spider.

Beyond that, I hope they keep it just as it is! --Dan Will 575 (Willh) Member Username: Willh Post Number: 282 Registered: 3-2003 Posted on Thursday, October 09, 2003 - 3:12 am:    Dan - On the East Coast, just saw the ad. Have to hand it to Lamborghini, the Barchetta is another bold design IMO. I'm surprised the car hasn't received more press attention; I waste a lot of time reading car magazines and yet missed this.

But that's just my opinion. The Barchetta will be made. So far, I like it.

Not interested in buying the car - can't even decide whether I like the look, probably would have to see one in person. Just curious. The Lamborghini site certainly has a distinctive look and feel - not for the bandwidth impaired, though.

I assume this is a one off? Or did I miss a new model? Would be interesting to see other photos.
