  2. Looks really disjointed and out of proportion, which is amazing because the standard gallardo has nearly perfect proportions...

    Zagato has produced some visually appealing designs and not so appealing designs through the years but beauty is very subjective. Zagato's are rare thus they appeal more to collectors, in my opinion, than to your everyday car enthusiast. I like it at certain angles and then do not like it at other angles.

    ask yourself.......is this 'better' than the original design?
    is it more appealing?
    does it improve the 'brand'?
    certainly someone liked it or it wouldn't have seen the light of day

    if no,then there's your answer

    We are talking about 500.000 US dollars for a rebodied LP570-4 SL. This is insane... Tha same thing Lamborghini did with the Reventon. Ok, here is Zagato....but not Zagato as we know it. This car is ugly, looks like a Spyker...

    This is absurd....

    Children shoes always look out of proportion when compared to normal shoes. It's the same with this car, it looks like a shoe for babies compared to the normal Gallardo.

    I have yet to gaze upon any zatagto to be any sort of improvement to any car.


    Each to his own, I know.


    But it's always easy to spot the unhandy work on any coach work. They always find was to make good designs look goofy and forced.

    I think it would look better in a dark color.

    Zagato IMO are rarely attractive but almost always 'interesting'. This fits that description to me.

    It looks like a mash up of other designs. Take the rear of a McLaren 12c, roof of a Koneggseg and front end from a catfish and you have this car.



    Hey! I want my mouth back!

    It's vulgar, and I am not opposed to that.

    But I would not buy one.

    Zagato peaked with the Fiat Otto Vu and a one off Ferrari 250GT. It's been 50 years.

    I think it's a really interesting design. Most Zagato designs are :)

    BTW: .... why isn't this thread over at the Lamborghini section?

    I see Spyker with Lambo overtones. The colossal Eagle F1 beak and Howmet TX rear plate add interest to a fairly generic supercar shape. Zag remains king of hit or miss design efforts, this one is a mild k, imho.
