I dont even like Lambos... but this is gorgeous. Pure sex. Depending on performance (and price after a few years) this might be enough for me to give up my E.

I think this car is one of those that'll slowly grow on me...

personally I think the front looks "bulky" if that makes sense. The rest of the car is SLICK...

I think Lambo played with the idea of a 4 door a while back. I think it was called the Portofino?

They exist, I've seen a kit done to a w220 Sclass, let me try n' dig it up for ya

Here ya go....
they only did the frnts but they can do all (4) doors

Vertical Door Conversion Kit. Custom designed specifically for Mercedes CLS-Class, resulting in a much easier and precise bolt-on installation. The kits consist of hinges and a gas-filled shocks that act like springs to make heavy doors easy to open or close.

What makes VDI conversion kits #1 in the industry?
Quick Direct Bolt-On Installation
No welding, no drilling, no painting
Full installation support from our techs
Complete reversible installation
Made in the USA with a Lifetime Warranty

$1599 per set of (2) doors

Anyways...I really like this sedan. So damn sexy...I wonder if it will be soft and made for comfort (quattroporte) or basically a 4 door version of a Gallardo. Looks sweet though.

So Lambo is copying the CLS idea as well.

MB made a solid hit with the CLS. Everyone is making an imitation, the newest ones to add are Lambo and Mazda. The others we all know about.

Remember Lambos attempt at an SUV back on the late 80's-early 90's? I believe it was called the LM002, it should have been called the LAME002. God that thing was ugly! This car is better looking, but still a well outside their core market.

That interior is epic, I really like the stearing wheel, I see so many things in there that look soo right, that is more than just some concept, seams very thought out.

I know Lambo will get heat for this but it will sell. I liken it to Ferrari doing the California anew. The core guys will be pissed but they have to make some $$$.
