Paris-bound mystery Lamborghini teaser images

New LamborghiniLamborghini has released two teaser images of a mystery car that’s set to be unveiled at the 2008 Paris Motor Show.

There’s not much we know about the car – we don’t even know if it is a pure concept car or a production car or a concept car that is previewing a production car. All we know is it has delicious bits of carbon fiber all over the place and the design theme stays true to the futuristic tone set by the Reventon.

More will be revealed at the Paris motor show but for the moment you can click the image on the left to see a larger version with more detail.

    Lamborghini has really surpassed Ferrari these days.This company was originally an agriculture machinary/vehicle manufactuer.When it’s owner bought a Ferrari he has some comments and went to Ferrari’s owner and told him that Ferrari gear is sluggish.Ferrari Boss repsonded in a way that was rude and told Lamborghini to go do his agriculture vehciles and stick to it as he has no idea about soprt cars.Look @ Lamborghini now.I can’t remember where I read this story.

    YES.VW GROUP IS DOING WELL THESE DAYS.also; Ferrari is owned by Fiat and it’s a F1 Champion team or was.This is a clear example of management and direction plannig.Fiat was the at top in the past.Was like GM NOW in tech and product variation and VW was the most european loser techincally Co. No direction no goal,just the beetle and the golf.What happened is VW planned to be Europe No.1.What did it need? NEEDED CASH 1st ofcourse and that was provided by government as it was Government linked company.It needed tech so it bought Audi.Needed lower class brand that sells alot cheap to maintain as a brand and that was by buying Skoda.NEEDED Image bought Lambo and Bugatti.Needed to kill Europe’s original Number one(Fiat) so bought Seat to position it against AlfaRomeo.The diff. betwwen the 2 that VW bought different brand from different Euro countries unlike fiat just close minded investing in ITALY AND also main positioning for Italy and Latin America.VW has a global aim plus ofcourse Good Managment.I HOPE PROTON GOT A PLAN AND A DIRECTION AND A GOOD HONEST CAPABLE MANAGMENT AS IT HAS TECH FROM LOTUS AND MV AUGUSTA WHICH DIDN’T BENEFIT AND GOV FUNDS THAT DIDN’T USE WELL.WHAT REMAINS IS MANAGEMENT AND DIRECTION

    P.S:VW NOW IS OWN BY PORSCHE.(A group of premium highly capable brands)

    VW GROUP in my opinion is the next GM with more Quality and PRESTIGE.

    OUT OF TOPIC BUT:HYUNDAI/KIA WILL CONTROL ASIA/some of Europe and most of US
    VW:EUROPE and Africa

    Toyota will fail by 2012 against VW and Hyundai/Kia Group

    Chrylser Will return to profit but will be smaller in size as a company

    Ford will take over GM
    GM WILL DISAPPEAR BY 2015

    Proton Climax point is in 2009/2010(best years) and will tell if the company will survive alone or be bought or face disappearance like Daewoo.
    These are my opinions based on Research I conducted and doesnot represent any solid facts and is debatable.

    if u didn’t like the last post or feel it is pure imagination.You maybe right but some assumptions are based on today’s business directions by those firms and I guess Proton is moving fast in the right direction but it will rock in sales if it develops Cheap Coupe car(HYUNDAI COUPE CLONE) and put prioroty on left hand driving as it is the slowest in developing this version and focus on Middle-east/Africa/Asean and don’t focus on UK cus it is a dead market.Spend ADS IN MIDDLE EAST AND AFRICA AND TURKEY/IRAN.This is the future.

    gallardo too normal? murcielago too old? dude, the design of gallardo will never be “too normal” anytime anywhere and murcielago (even though i dont like it) will never be too old just because its a 6 years old car…

    no scissors door? who give a damn? just visit Hamann and they’ll do anything and everything for u….. even if u want 22″ wheels or whole body carbon fibre…

    There are two speculations now for the Mystery Lamborghini.

    1. The Lamborghini Mucrielago Superveloce which was spotted earlier testing in Nurburgring with a giant GT wing, however an extreme version of Lamborghini would not be substantial enough to live up to Lamborghini’s claim of “It’s not just a new Lamborghini, it’s a new world” Note the word ‘NEW’.

    2.A more likeable, financially feasible take would be a 4 door super coupe Lamborghini, this is very likely as the only future ‘niche’ for supercar manufacturers other than downsizing their supercars or outstripping their supercars, would be super sedans, the likes of Porsche Panamera GT and Aston Martin Rapide are enough to push other manufacturers into this niche battle, and also get BMW, Audi and Merc sweating, as the supercars begin their backwards integration eating market shares of these luxury sedan manufacturers where the supercars had suffered quite a bit with 500hp BMWs and 600hp Mercedes.

    In respond to ask82’s claim, NO, it’s not that easy to topple Toyota, their in a different league in terms of manufacturing, branding and marketing in enormous numbers. Currently all new models of Toyota on sale combined in the world (Including Lexus and Scion) is an amazing number of in excess of 80 models (excluding commercial). I don’t see VW or even Hyundai/Kia having half as many. They’re already abit like Nokia, count their total models available and compared that to Sony Ericsson.

    While all other cars are continuing on strengthening their corporate brands, Toyota had already move on to individual model branding for their cars. Unilever Shampoo? Nope, Sunsilk, Dove ….

    ingolstadt, you are quite right and this is now in the present day and year and the coming few utill 2012.The fall of Toyota will start.I didn’t sayu theu will disappear or be unprofitable but they will begin a very fast journey down faster than GM & Ford and that for a very simple fact.we have an example syaing in the arab world which says:whenever a bird flies and excels so by how it fly and got higher will fall.

    So Toyota has lost inspiration.Look at their products.Very profitable and that means that it is not challenging.Look at their designs,ugly or not up to sales figures.I MEAN WHEN the only purpose for a firm is to be the most efficent and valuable they become afraid of renewing themseles so that they don’t fail.Alot and alot and alot of research and wait for a new model to make sure it will sell well.They do plastic cars now.Lorean cars are more durable interm of Body strentgh wise than Toyota(JAPAN GENERALLY)even chinese cars.money isn’t everything.That’s why I like companies like Ford,Hyundai/KIA.Mitsubishi.They have courage and renewing themselves and make bold moves and breakthroughs.Toyota like GM have ego and this will lead to ignorance and fail,ure.Just watch HYUNDAI/KIA and Toyota(Scion,Lexus,Daihatsu,Hano) by 2012

    dON’T FORGET that Hyundai/KIA bought proto motors which is a sport car manufacturer in Korea and may become the next super car manufactuer especially that prices will be like 1/2 of Europe Brands and Prestige of a brand like HYUNDAI/KIA is getting already established by having the ceed and Azera and GENESIS AND sORENTO AND Mohave.I mean the forte will threathen it entire class in competition.THE MOHAVE TOO.GENESIS WILL BE NO1 after Merc,BMW,Lexus. Means 4th preferred luxury Sedan.
    also;look at TATA/LANDROVER/JAGUAR ALTHOUGH I HATE JAGUAR AND TATA.I JUST LIKE LANDROVER.WELL THEY WILL SURE CREATE A CHRYSLER CLONE SIMILAR BUSINESS GROUP THAT WILL BE UNLIKE CHRYSLER.TATA GROUP WILL BE PROFITABLE AND MORE MASS PRODUCED.

    The Day Toyota became No.1 is the day it began losing.
    Toyota is like Nokia but Nokia got the design area and technical area and have courage to release unprofitable products to test and research.Toyota profit or no release.

    1 unclear thing I wrote and to clarify.Toyota is the most capable technical company now and they can design alot of nice stuff,but simply they don’t AND THEY DON’T USE THEIR Technical potential to the max.THEY FOCUS ON PROFIT MORE THAN INNOVATION.Look t the IQ article in this respected blog.INNOVATION IN THE PLATFORM AND PURPOSE but look for example at Vios/Yaris/BELTA and their pricing incomparison with bigger class vehicles like KIA CERATO WHICH IS BETTER THAN VIOS/YARIS IN every aspect yes priced the same.Profit when it becomes more than usual is a bad thing.I mean if your working capital is $10000 it is unusual to have profits of $100000.means u r not fair or not selling a valuable product.
