there are 3 that i see here pretty regular when the weather is nice. a yellow one, a red one, and a sort of black one that isn't totally black...i can't really describe the color except that black is the closest i can come to saying what ever it is.
they are cool cars, and they sound really nice when you stomp on the loud pedal.
 
One of my favorite car companies. They have really been through alot. I'll never forget seeing my first Lamborghini Countach S, metallic blue with a bright white leather interior, brand new. I followed it to a shop and listened to it idle. Come to find out later, the shop was run by Bob Wallace, one of the first 'seven' employees, hired to build a prototype car in the back corner of Europes biggest tractor factory, 'Lamborghini'. Bob, from New Zealand, had just left Ferrari and new alot about cars and driving them. He was the one that punched the cooling vents and all in the Countach to keep its V12 cool, testing it daily on the Autostrada...

Later, Ferruccio Lamborghini would later sell his stocks in his own company to help finance the Countach into production, giving up his part and all his investment to see it go. He retired to making wine in the countrysides of Italy.

They have been through alot.... Good to see they are still going strong.


Does anyone remember the Cheetah, which became the LM-002? (ever notice how much it looks like a Hummer? ...but remember it came out a couple of decades before the Hummer did).

Click to expand...

But the HMMWV (Humvee) came before the LM-002. Not to mention that they all still look like the Mercedes Gelandewagen, and Land Rovers, also.
 
just think, if enzo ferrari didn't tick off Ferruccio Lamborghini, we might never have all the cool cars that he made
(although for a long time they were notorious for catching fire)
