A, It's still disguised so how can you tell.
B, It does not look that dissimilar to the last one.

Could that be a mule? Murci body on the new chassis?

Cover it in bin bags to keep people guessing and jobs a good un

I'm not an expert, but from what I gather the bodywork isn't that important for the most part, they want to check the airflow through the engine etc, so only a few bits matter.

Looks just like a mule I saw in Essouira, Morocco!

It's about that time of the decade when Lambo bring out a new flagship model - really looking forward to this, though I hope they will do something extraordinary otherwise McLaren may have the upper hand!

It's not that bad. Cut the R8 side blade off and make the vent a little smaller should be good. Im looking forward to the new engine, seeing what amazing sounds it will produce, and how big the exhaust is on this as they seem to be getting bigger all the time!

How on earth you would drive a Lamborghini on Morrocan roads is completely beyond me laugh

So Lambo HQ are swaying towards the Gallardo wing mirrors then..

Have to say for an "undercover" car (as that is what it still is) I like it..

I think he means just the shell (and the wheels). Certainly looks like a Gallardo in some ratios/measurements...

We won't know what Superleggera looks like until next week, I wouldn't be surprised if it's that, cold weather testing. I would expect Murci replacement to be much bigger than that car appears.

However, I could me miles-off!

Got to say I think its defo's a murci replacement and not a Gallardo. Just look at the roof line, length, and general breeding. Looks great to me especially as it may have 700-720bhp!!!

...I repeat 700-720bhp........ Better start saving

agreed : some of the glass resembles a gallardo, but the side proportions are very different

You're right - look at the width of the rear track!!

And I'm told the LP670-4 order book is now closed.
