Lamborghini is known as the most Ape Shit car maker in the world(that makes more than 100 cars)

Why Lambo Is Awesome: The ISR is THE quickest tranny you can get in a street car. The Aventador looks amazing. Interiors(though pretty much the same as an Audi R8's) are now luxury quality. And one word sums up their renaissance: VENENO

Why they're bad: The ESTOQUÉ(Aventador Sedan) has been put on hold indefinitely and instead we get the Rambo Lambo wannabe, the U(gly)rus. Which is a cayenne in the best drag outfit ever(which isn't saying much). The Gallardo is so old it has seen TWO iterations of Ferraris mid engine V8 sports car go by(360 and 430) and is almost getting stomped on by the 458 and mulched by the masterpiece that is the MP4-12C.

Future outlook: With all 3 Venenos sold as well as all the Sesto Elementos sold. We're probably not going to see any cuckoo out the window epicness from Lambo for some time. The Cabrera is coming(as is Half Life 3 which means eventually/forever) and it sounds amazing. However will it be different enough from the R8? We shall see.

I never really thought the Gallardo competed with the 458 or MP4 at all, it more or less competes with the R8, 911 Turbo S, and GT-R, and still does decently against them for how old it is, but some cars (GT-R, especially) are able to do way more with less.

The Veneno was a joke, BTW. It was a way to steal the show away from McLaren on their debut, it's not a renaissance. If anything, the Murcielago was a "renaissance", beginning the era of the usable, if still crazy, Lambo. The Aventador isn't going anywhere soon, and the Gallardo replacement is not going to be crazier than it, so the era of "insane" lambo isn't coming back.

All of Lamborghini's insanity went here, in more concentrated form:

But isn't the Gallardo priced similar to the 458 and MP4?

It seems fair to compare it to those cars since a new Gallardo costs well over $200K

I was really sad that the Cabrera was not revealed this year. It had previously been rumored to reveal at one of the 2013 auto shows. Now it's going to have a 2014 reveal and probably not hit dealerships until 2015.

The CRAZY thing about that is that the Ferrari 458 replacement will probably be revealed in either 2014 or 2015. The Gallardo lasted way too long...

I really hope the Cabrera is awesome. Hopefully Lamborghini won't neuter it out of fear of cannibalizing the Aventador. I don't think they have to worry about that as the person who buys the Aventador isn't going to car if the Cabrera can match or beat it on a race course. The average Aventador buyer just wants to show off the biggest and most expensive Lambo (other than special editions).

In my opinion Lamborghini needs to worry more about the Cabrera being competitive with the R8 replacement, the Ferrari 458 replacement, the GTR, and MP4 and the 911 Turbo S. The Cabrera will not be cheap, especially with options, so it has to be a great car.

The biggest competition comes from within VAG. The current Audi R8 V10 Plus is competitive with the Gallardo for less money. I prefer the Gallardo for the looks and sound. But the cost of the R8 V10 is appealing.

I hope the Cabrera has as much power as possible and an improved chassis. And I hope it's raced more than the Gallardo is.

Did Horacio Pagani design the Diablo? Always thought the Zonda bore a resemblance to the VT model
