Lamborghini Concept Car Headed To Auction
I used to consider myself more of a "Ferrari-Fan" rather than a "Lamborghini Lover" but after a 45-minute experience in the Lamborghini Aventador, my first experience driving a Lamborghini, I was totally smitten. You can read about my experience in the mi...
Not a fan of the Egoist at all !
But the Sesto Elemento does appeal to me .. a lot .... BUT please with a round steering wheel :-) Does Sotheby's accept a bouncing check you think ? :-)
I like them all...
The Sesto Elemento is just rolling sculpture. I saw it at the Quail Motorsports Gathering show a few years ago and I thought it was amazing in person. It seems all the major auction houses accepts blood money for payment, money from criminals, or gives cr...
About the bouncing check ...
If the auction houses are as evil as most of their clients i should NOT take that risk ;-) Bim
A necessary risk...
They should make a James Bond book about a villain who's an auction house executive who wants to take over the world. Or maybe just the art world. The Spy Who Loved Me - (with the Lotus) - was all about a villain who wanted to start a war between the worl...
Unsure whether I like it all that much either
But I'm hugely glad they made it, all the same. This particular Lamborghini concept is definitely more readily identifiable to me as being a "concept" car. This is almost certainly a generation thing, as I grew up in an era where concepts were generally u...
Really curious to see where my baby is going to end up and who will be smiling from
ear to ear driving it! ...
I must've missed that year at Pebble Beach...
At least it looks like Pebble Beach. An amazing design. Sculpture.
Yes i was at Pebble beach and later at the concorso with the Concept S
are you this year in? Cheers Luc
Definitely in this year...
Missed it last year, was unfortunately in Paris. But this year, I'm making certain that nothing is in my schedule.
That last picture ...
.. if those are your sisters, can you introduce me to them please ? :-)
I preferred this concept more....
The Glass Canopy is more functional S Pic Credit: Google Images ...
Hmm..
It might actually be the same car. Maybe different non-functioning prototypes were made and shown around the world, but only one functioning car was built? Just a guess. Good find!
Yes that was the show car and i wanted the glass to serve more
as a wind deflector to protect the occupants but homologation was an issue. If you create a screen to look through than more than 90% of the field of view (defined by the viewing angles) surface has to be wiped which meant the screen had to be bigger and ...
Ahh, "Monoposto feel" is the operating descriptor for this car...
Just like an F1 race car, Monoposto open cockpit feel. There's even the painted exterior trim separating the driver and passenger for more of that race car feel.
