Okay, no offense to the Lambo guys here but, it looks very similar to the Gallardo.

Or a spaceship?

To me, and IMHO, I think every car Lambo has built in the last 35 years has been a continuation series of the Countach. And yet their CEO said we are not into revisiting the past when it came to this;

Not sure where they came up with the name..or what it means. When I first saw it, I thought it was an offshoot of the Turbo-Entabulator.

It's not another variant of the Gallardo?

Not even close.....
Kind of Like saying a Ford GT is a similar or version of a Pantera. The car has a lamborghini look I would agree and so does the Gallardo, but these are very different cars

By the way - how much is a Turbo-Entabulator? Thinking about one for my snowblower....:lol

 

[HHGT]

Okay, its a longer Gallardo with a different badge.

 

[Fubar]

At least it has some curves. Their use of straight lines and angles just went way too far. Curves, thats what a car should have. Curves like a woman... ask Camilo. I have to agree that it looks VERY similar to the Gi-Lard-DO. I would be shocked to hear that it isn't built on the same chassis.

I believe Aventador in Spanish is the fan used to blow on a fire. 'Bellows, if you will. ( I seem to remember it also refers to a pitchfork like implement used in agriculture...but, I won't swear to that either.)

Evidently there must have been a bull by that name? :shrug

Okay...now I DEFINITELY like it! And it would look nasty in black!

('Wish they'd have included a full on shot of the rear though.)

I read somewhere, waaay back when, that all Lambo's were meant to "Go Like The Wind" and thus all of the model names where named after a "Wind".

btw a 2nd Grand Unvailing will be at the University of Washington, where the composite materials were developed for this car.

I've never heard that particular explanation before now. I've only heard/read about 'em being named after bulls. For instance:

Do you know the date, Jeff?

All sorts of something good to eat are coming from Lamborghini, starting with a Murcielago subsitute. The name was at large believed to be a Jota though it turns out which it will most probably be called a Lamborghini Aventador LP 700-4. The name was suggested in a Murcielago replacement display held during Sant’Agata not long ago, divided from the prying ears of Informers.

The display took place with a little faithful Lamborghini clients present as well as a name choice has fallen to which of a important breed of fighting bulls. The Aventador is Informed to be a stylistic expansion upon the Gallardo, with some elements from the Reventon supercar judgment, as well.

It will have a 6.5-litre V12 engine with 700 hp, all-wheel drive as well as a seven-speed sequential gearbox. It will have the monocoque carbon chassis, shortening weight by about 230 kg with torsional acerbity up by about 70 percent. The opening figures tune really extraordinary: 0-100 in 2.9 seconds as well as the tip speed of 350 km/hr. More after a burst.
