I won't agree with that...... some parts or techs may be the same inside Gallardo and R8, but the 'soul' is very different.... well, unless u are a fan of Alfa 8C or Aston DB9, the Gallardo is the best looking supercar......

But as of late, newer Lambos have been on the rather tame and civilized and have moved away from being the "other" italian marque thumbing thier noses at Ferrari. However, part of the character of these italian throughbreds are its unpredictable temperament and reliability...some how might not be a bad thing for the germans to engineer these out...loss of character? I dont know.... The world is still awaiting the next Miura. There is nothing wrong with platform or parts sharing…as long as the character of the marque is left intact.

A car like the Lambo should not be subjected to too much components sharing. It should retain its exclusivity.

If keep making cars that look like Rebenton, people will not care if it has 50% Audi components. Better have Audi reliability than Lambo insanity The only reason why people are getting worried is Lambo looks tame now.

I thought Lambo use the platform first, if they insist on the exclusivity of the car then why Audi wan't to repeat it in R8 it's confusing you know. Why this topic always drag the R8 down with this?

But on the other hand, something that expensive should very well have it's exclusivity :p While it’s true that some purists say that component-sharing dilutes the “DNA” of the car, it’s actually a good form of cost-cutting and reduction in parts, as in “why change a thing that works?”.
