RE: Lamborghini Centenario - Geneva 2016

That looks bloody awful, like they've driven through Halfords and Mansory. What a shame.

"A fitting tribute to Ferrucio..."?

The man who brought us the purity of the original Miura, Countach and Diablo may have begged to differ!

[dazwalsh]

Ita gopping and feckin bonkers in the same quantoties, so im not sure if i like it or not.

Not sure about anyone elae but i hate 3 exhaust setups, gimme 2 or 4 but not 3 its just wrong.

[SteelySteve]

Well thats how the new Aventador will look

Just like the Cesto Elemento which introduced the Huracan design

They try out the styling of the new car with a re bodied version of the old car

Adjustable wheelbase? On a separate point, why are so many manufacturers bothering to announce a car that's already sold out. Yes, most can't afford one anyway but it's a bit silly except for the wildly waving bit about how amazing they are to be able to sell cars so quickly. Suppose it makes the buyers feel special being invited to a private event to buy cars before anyone else. A pre sale preview for super cars

[5harp3y]

did they run out of ideas at the back and stick those indicators / reflectors and exhausts on.

its a bit of a mess really

[MikeGalos]

Just flat out stunning. Can't wait to see one in the carbon fiber since Lamborghinis usually have a presence in person that doesn't show up in pictures.

Or possibly what PH's posters think the average Lamborghini buyer is most worried about.

All these posts about what the thing looks like and not one mention of the adjustable wheelbase and four wheel steering.

Guess you can see what PH's posters are most worried about now

Four-wheel steering has been tried by many manufacturers over the years and has always been dropped as quickly as possible in model refreshes with as little explanation as possible... so as to avoid drawing attention to what a stupid and non-useful gimmick it was all along.

It's hard not to comment on the looks of something that looks so unpleasant so expensively

Good point

Same power as the F12 tdf?

Rather have a aventador sv than this.

This is well Max Power. Soon to be looking abhorrent outside a middle eastern hotel near you.

Brilliant and hilarious

How long before the powers that be clamp down on these sort of power outputs ? might be as well for the manufacturers to limit themselves before they have limits imposed on them ?? Just sayin..........

Fab looking thing by the way, but not in the world that any of us mere mortals live in is it (except 40 maybe of course)

Emissions is the way restriction is going, not power I feel.

It's completely normal now for a BMW 5 series to have 500 bhp which would have seemed insane 20yrs ago, we're just socially adjusting to accepting everything has more power.

I'd suggest a GPS based speed limiting tech is where the innovation will come. No-one needs to be going over 30 mph outside a school on a school day for example.

Awful......they'll sell them all.

The Veneno is far nicer.

Which is saying something.

I wonder if releasing this it has damaged the longevity of the Aventador model .
