    I would be currious to see the performance specs too, then to see it in person, which, probably means not until Pebble Beach 2009.

    "Lamborghini" sedan, what a way to stand out from the lemmings MB and BMW. ;)

    Hahaha!

    I think though he'll be sticking to murci's...I think he should be rolling around in a Reventon as a replacement for the tumbler that got blown up...

    The new car is growing on me. Still not sold on the front though.

    To me the front end looks too much like the Ferrari 430 Scuderia.

    They'd be better off building a new, more-rounded-off, LM002 with some more efficient engine like a modern turbo-diesel.

    That looks awesome, I read the thread earlier, and couldn't post since I was on a ASU computer. But I love it, I bet it would look good, I'm kind of not feeling the rear roofline, but I felt the same way about the GTR's roofline, and I still haven't seen one yet, but I think it looks good. It grew on me, so I guess this will too.

    I agree Josh, I want to see this in Verde. :D :D

    The car looks really long. Perhaps shorten the length, remove two doors and it would look much better. (Ferrari 612 proportions) Photoshop anyone?

    IMO they will sell alot initially then the A$$ will drop off and they will depreciate more than a Maser Quattroporte has. Which is hlf the cost new in a couple years.

    Doesn't mean I would not maybe want one :)

    Any interior pics?

    I think that's the whole idea of an expensive sedan ...

    lenghty proporcions translate as power (in an unconscious manner ...)

    More comments:
    I like the Italian flag in the side vent, and I like the mirrors, looks really futuristic.

    Also, how do you pronounce the name. Is it just Est-ouge, like its spelled, or more of an Italian flair? Just realized its a Q not a G, I still don't know how its pronounced.

    Agreed. I doubt I'll be able to see this in person though.

    What's more concerning:

    That Lamborghini is making a 4 door car which looks perfectly capable of hitting mach 2, OR that someone let Martin Short drive this thing indoors...


    :) In all seriousness, this is my next car. I'm gonna drive a 3 year old Honda until Lamborghini makes it, then I'm gonna go hold my breath in the corner until they let me on the list!

    To me it looks like one of those cars where the designers just go "Oh that looks wicked, put that on." "Oh yeah, I think that looks pretty raw and wild, put that on too!" "Don't forget to let the side mirrors look like a space ship!" "This car doesn't have enough of sharp edges, how about making the rear and front a lot more edgier?" "Edges are nice, we'll do 250 of them on this car" "This must look so futuristic that it's outdated in three years!"

    I would loved to have one, though. So they succeeded with what they want - a lot of attention and potential sales?

    I was hoping it will look great, but I must say I am not overwhelmed at all. It looks a bit overstyled. It has nice details, but as a whole car...
    For instance headlights look wrong shaped, and rear is somehow uncompleted. I stay with premise that it should have 2 doors. Front bumper looks great, but whole car has just too many broken shapes, to many details. I just hope serial car will have some of these flaws corected...
