  • tastypastry, on 10/10/2007, -1/+61I want to see this car in a game because I'll probably never even see one in real life.
  • mrgeekguy, on 10/10/2007, -4/+49Who will crash it first- Paris, Britteny, or Lindsey?
  • extratired, on 10/10/2007, -2/+40because they can't. the € sign isn't on the keyboard outside of europe.
  • Duncan3, on 10/10/2007, -4/+40Too bad American roads are such crap that you couldn't drive it here. One pothole and it's toast - no ground clearance.
  • KillerLettuce, on 10/10/2007, -0/+36At least they were being considerate and added an "OH *****" handle on the center console. http://jalopnik.com/photogallery/lamboreventonpress/2556204
  • 5antaCruzK1D, on 10/10/2007, -3/+37I really thought it would take a while for Lamborghini to make something more perfect than the LP640 and I guess I was wrong. G-forces gauge, i love it.
  • iepurilah, on 10/10/2007, -9/+42So far it looks good, but we'll have to see if it will be good enough to challenge the Veyron, which, so far, is the perfect super car.
  • cybermort, on 10/10/2007, -9/+40possibly the most beautiful car i've seen
  • joaob, on 10/10/2007, -2/+30Bugatti is not even on Lamborghini's radar prestige wise...this car was created for one reason.

    Enzo.
  • diggB, on 10/10/2007, -1/+29Be killer if they let the Top Gear guys have at it ...
  • Stormwave0, on 10/10/2007, -3/+28It certainly won't beat the Veyron in terms of speed or usability (not that you would ever drive one anyway). But this Lambo certainly looks better than the Veyron.
  • manfrin, on 10/10/2007, -2/+25Yes, because every single American road is the same.
  • Sneakernets, on 10/10/2007, -1/+22Needs more NOS and spoilers for you?
  • adt41287, on 10/10/2007, -0/+19oh the irony
  • inactive, on 10/10/2007, -10/+29Why does everyone always struggle so much to type €?
  • skinrock, on 10/10/2007, -0/+18Even if you won enough from the lottery, they probably wouldn't even consider you as a buyer.
  • ItsMyWii, on 10/10/2007, -2/+19Lamborghini gets sexier every time.
  • DannySpace, on 10/10/2007, -1/+16Ooooh, I know... Neither, it will be Eddie Griffin!
  • SerifTheRobot, on 10/10/2007, -2/+17So Skunkworks declassified their stealth Murcielago?
  • shiftt, on 10/10/2007, -2/+17hey at least you're not lying to yourself
  • coolian, on 10/10/2007, -1/+15Yes.
  • tippmann1, on 10/10/2007, -0/+13this always confused me, if you can create a stealth bomber that has a radar footprint of less than a bumblebee why can't you apply that same concept to a sports car and beat the speed gun?

    plus it would be totally bad-ass
  • Sneakernets, on 10/10/2007, -4/+16For obvious reasons.
  • dvsbastard, on 10/10/2007, -0/+11Also needs stickers... Lots of stickers! That is 100BHP missing right there...
  • Mushroonaut, on 07/11/2008, -1/+10That is one mother ***** mean machine dude!
  • KillerLettuce, on 10/10/2007, -4/+13You've obviously never driven on roads in Europe
  • rootstyle, on 10/10/2007, -0/+9Not to detract from your accurate Apple quip, but its almost likely they took a loss on each of these cars produced. These flagship super cars are rarely for profit, but instead to show strength against the other big names.
  • techfish, on 10/10/2007, -0/+8Yes.
  • djpants428, on 10/10/2007, -3/+11alt + 0128 in windows, shift + option + 2 in OS X
    €
  • techlinks, on 10/10/2007, -1/+8€ Whoa it works!
  • xero69, on 10/10/2007, -1/+8(Borat voice)
    Does this come with the pussy magnet?
  • eatupmartha, on 10/10/2007, -1/+8I don't know, to me they'll never be able to top the Countach. Maybe it depends on when you are born.
  • rootstyle, on 10/10/2007, -0/+7You actually responded seriously to a comment that began with 'BALLIN'?
  • inactive, on 10/10/2007, -0/+6none of them, im willing to put money most if not all of these went to sheik's.
  • Tenoq, on 10/10/2007, -0/+6Unlikely. Majority will probably be sold in Europe, not Florida & LA.
  • afwjam, on 10/10/2007, -1/+6guess you don't like suede and carbon fiber? Looks great to me.
  • Jugalator, on 10/10/2007, -0/+5Yeah, as obvious as $ isn't there on European ones. No wait... ;)
  • sulf, on 10/10/2007, -0/+5You entirely miss the point.
  • tastypastry, on 10/10/2007, -2/+7Third - Spend all remaining money on maintaining vehicle.
  • RubberBinder, on 10/10/2007, -0/+5and Jay Leno
  • PowerMax, on 10/10/2007, -0/+5Nice find. Didn't even notice the first time around.
  • moofer, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4Is it a "Type R"?
  • rootstyle, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4Don't worry, you can throw your own Type-R sticker on there, maybe a fart can exhaust too. That'll make it REeeeALLy fast. I guess you know better than the Lambo engineers, you know they just couldn't plurge on a pair of turbos for it.

    Out of sarcasm land:
    Real high performance (i.e. not plain ol' sports cars) are almost never turbo charged. The Veyron is an exception, but not designed for the purists (Lambo, Ferrari crowd) and instead as an engineering experiment at Volkswagen AG. Porsche is the common exception mind you, but of course sticks to their smaller 3.6L engines for lower weight.
  • LuCiFer6, on 10/10/2007, -2/+6ummmm it looks like every other Lambo they make now.
  • Zippo, on 11/02/2007, -0/+4This is great and all... but how many cup holders does it have?
  • holygram, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4As in you have an extra 200k laying around?
  • inactive, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4I've always thought Koenigsegg's cars are better looking than McLaren F1s.

  • moofer, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4I love how that .jpg is titled "Stealt-bomber" and it's really the F117 Stealth Fighter. Not even close to being the same plane.
  • jdblueaudis4, on 10/10/2007, -1/+5I just rented a Lambo Gallardo SE Spyder for my wedding and I can tell you there were very few roads that we had issues driving on, and we are in PA (which has the worst roads ever).
