If stipulated you had to keep it, how many guys on here would trade straight up right now Veneno for their FGT? Liars! lol I think it is a fantastic car but I do hate the Contach wheel arches.

I'm surprised to see the comments expressed towards the Veneno. It's not my favorite Lambo and the styling is a bit over the top but it is a Lambo yes. I think it's great that a company still exists with the balls to make cars like this and stick with the large cubic inch N/A powerplant while everyone is running for small displacement/turbo/hybrid hills. I know of a group of F car owners, one in particular with an F40, who absolutely despises the FGT. I won't repeat some of the adjectives I've heard them use to describe it but they are of a similar to some of the words in this thread used to describe the Veneno. I think almost any reasonable thinking person would agree that like it or not the neither the FGT or the Veneno are "hideous". They may not be the car that lights your fire but to describe either using such terms suggests a bit of jealousy and/or intimidation. In any case, I'd take one of these over the Veneno or FGT any day of the week
A bit over the top? :lol Again, over the top and good looking do not have to be mutually exclusive. I absolutely think a good number of reasonable people would describe the back end of the Veneno as hideous, and have seen them do so.
Like Sinovac, I can unequivocally assure you I am neither jealous or intimidated. And hey, I've seen you talk all kinds of trash and give backhanded compliments about Ford GT over the years. Don't be intimidated! :biggrin

Luke, come on and move to Texas, I think the cold weather has affected your mind. Enough said. PS We will welcome you with open arme, I think.
LOL I like the FGT but I don't love it. I am definitely jealous of the recent increase in values and wish I still had mine to take advantage of. That said, when my F car acquaintances bag on the FGT I can't help but think it is because secretly inside they are thinking dammit my car isn't selling for $250k these days I sure wish I had one! Hideous or not if any one of you told me you'd kick the Veneno out of bed, you be lyin!
If Lambo created a modern day Miura, done the same spirit as the FGT/GT40 remake, I wonder what might come of it.

It would sell to atypical Lamborghini owners and expand the companies' customer base. This is obviously a terrible idea. I can see why a for-profit company would be opposed to it. The original Miura is one of the most beautiful modern cars ever made and the concept did it great justice.
Some would consider a modern remake of a classic to be sacrilege cough cough... Should Ferrari make a modern 250GTO? I think not. You wouldn't buy one anyway Pockets lol
Oh, muh gosh...:willy:willy:willy

I like Luke, always a bit of a smartass but that's better than being a dumbass. However, to say that 'if you don't like it you must be jealous' is leaning a bit towards the latter. The car is ridiculous... that is all.

Sans the American bumpers. Likely one of, if not the most awful add-on mandated by U.S. safety regs.

The most outrageous design to come along ever in it's day. I have to imagine there were slews of Corvette faithful in 1983 decrying the hideous and vulgar styling of the Countach :wink
