Depending on your taste this might belong in the ugly car thread, but I present to you the last V-12 Lamborghini.

I like it, but most Lamborghinis look like they'd cut you in half if they hit you walking in front of them. They don't run over you or under you, they run through you.Depending on your taste this might belong in the ugly car thread, but I present to you the last V-12 Lamborghini.

For what it costs to customize a Honda to that degree, couldn't you just buy a Lambo?
I think Lambos are stupid. Frankly, I don't get the supercar thing at all. We have speed limits here. So unless you plan on taking it to the track, who would want one?
That's what I was thinking. Although that was done in India, so it was probably cheap and most likely taped on.
Driving can be fun, even with speed limits. You look at cars as appliances and your Saturn* is more closely related to a toaster than it is to a Lambo, and that's fine. Others may get a grin out of driving something with an iota of personality and fun. Different strokes for different folks.
Supercars take that to the extreme, of course, and are playthings for the rich and/or frivolous, but cars/trucks with good driving dynamics and attractive styling can and do make a workaday commute or a long highway slog just a smidge more enjoyable.
*It's been half a decade or more since we sparred on this topic and you may have finally retired/replaced your toaster.
I don't remember any previous discussion on this topic and I've never had a Saturn (or a toaster). You're misremembering, I reckon.
I don't give a shit if someone wants to blow a bunch of their money on a supercar. I've had fast cars. I drove them too fast and dangerously. I was a teenager. I was simply sharing my opinion, that there's no draw for me. It makes no sense to me. If it makes sense to you, I recommend you get yourself a Lambo. Let me know how it works out.
You're overlooking the best reason to get one. The potential to get more women. Or at least better looking than what someone with a toaster would get.
If any woman is impressed with a Lambo, she's either a child or she traveled through time from the 1980s.
Must have mixed you up with some other stick-in-the-mud. Come to think of it, might've been st8grad.
Stick-in-the-mud, indeed. Leave me to it. And you keep the pedal to the metal, Mr. Fast & Furious.
The new GT3 touring...

I always wanted a Lotus, and now they have announced that they are going all electric. This is the first, the Evija.....2000 HP and TRULY insane speed. Still in the prototypical stages, it won't even be street legal in the U.S. as produced.
It looks like bringing the RPT thread and cars thread back to life has also brought back @JuleZ '02 HEEL from the grave. Wonder if that will work for other posters. @Terror Beard, are you still out there? @BillyL.. oh right, never mind about William.
First all-electric Jeep. Kind of cool looking. Probably won't look anything like that come production time.
I never much liked yellow on a car, but that even makes yellow look good. I wonder why these car makers put out gorgeous protos and then end up producing something less appealing.First all-electric Jeep. Kind of cool looking. Probably won't look anything like that come production time.
Usually the concept car is just trying to nail down the major design characteristics. Basic body lines and stuff like that. But they almost always have to make substantial changes to meet safety standards and other regulations. That’s not a particularly aggressive looking concept so I’d bet it’ll look pretty similar rolling off the factory floor.
That said, you couldn’t pay me to drive a jeep. I guess it could be fun to turn an old beat up wrangler into a fun little trail/rock crawler but that’s not really my thing.
My Jeep was a pretty decent road vehicle as well as an off-roader, Jeep being one of the few that doubles up well in that regard.
A close friend of mine is selling her (and her late husband's) 1978 Datsun 280Z 2+2 cars. HisNHers, black and white!

I love the old Zs. My buddy had a 1983 T-top, 280Z when we were in high school. Really cool cars. Julez will be all over this poast.
Was anybody else unaware that the DeLorean brand is trying to make a comeback?
And (color me skeptical until they're actually on the road, but) it looks great.
And of course, gullwing doors

I hadn't heard about it. Unless it has a Flux Capacitor option, I'm not interested.Was anybody else unaware that the DeLorean brand is trying to make a comeback?

Great Scott! That's heavy.The first performance stat listed is a 0-88 mph time.
Read today that next year is the last year of the Charger and Challenger. Dodge is moving to all EV like Ford. They said the name could be revived in the future.Sort of full circle from the first post... BEV Charger Daytona Banshee
