Very nice. Its funny how the Gallardo looks so much better than the Murc. This version just increases the pace in the difference.

There isnt much Audi in the design. Just a little in the rear lights, that's all.

Ok, so now I got over my blindness (with a little help) but my other problem is I am dumb as a donkey. Well how about when you first starts the car, does it just sit in park until you use the steering wheel lever to move it into first gear/or reverse?

disclaimer: I never own or been close to such sophisticate machineries in my life.

The buttons on the dash are the shift keys. Drive, Neutral, and Reverse.

I take that back, they aren't. I'm guessing it's all done with the paddles.

it looks great. the side profile really reminds me of a Pagani Zonda. also, those front intakes are a straight steal from the Reventon.

The Lamborghini isn't a car that ever really appealed to me, unlike the R8. To me is to angular in design.

Anyways, here's some pics. I think it looks amazing, except the wheels are something I'm gonna have to see in real life before I approve. I like everything about this car, the headlights, the taillights, the exhaust tips, basically every single detail has been made better.

Well, pre-LP640 Murcielago wasn't very good looking to me, and the pre-LP560 Gallardo isn't appealing to me either. This one looks absolutely amazing though. It nails the details, something the current Gallardo lacks.

Saw it in person when I was in Paris near a Lambo dealer. Same color combo as the photos in this thread.

Drop dead sexy. Possibly my favorite design I've yet to see in the flesh, and I've seen everything short of the Reventon. Really. Better looking than the CGT, LP640, R8, FXX, SLR, F430, Veyron (including the LE Pur Sang...spelling might be wrong), etc etc.

I love it. I want one so, so badly.

Reminds me of some of the first car video games that came out. The styling has so many staight lines. Did they use MacPaint or MacDraw to design it?

probably not even that. MS Paint more likely
