The Zonda does not live by corporate laws. It is the result of passion. It has no other purpose but to represent a car guy's vision. The Zonda does not live by its spec sheet, that's why it is timeless and already a classic.

Murcielago and Zonda ... comparable. Pfff!
I completely disagree with your characterization of Lamborghini!
I have visited BOTH the Pagani and Lamborghini plants.
And to say Lamborghini has no soul or to infer it has no passion is
completely and utterly incorrect!
I would qualify both as extremely passionate about their mission.
They have different ways of executing. Both are valid.

I got the assumption that Lamborghini is passion less, dont know why but Ferrari has more of that passion feel and exclusivity. Well most companies now a days dont do there cars like they used to do.

The SV will be the faster car if that matters. You don't buy a Lamborghini for the bang for the buck value. You buy it because its a Lamborghini. If thats how someone shops for a Lamborghini than its not the right car for them. Its the Lamborghini exclusive experience and I will pick that over a Mercedes every day, because everyone owns a Mercedes.

You are a bit misinformed about the exclusive part. Find out how many Modenas have been made and you will find it is not exclusive. Ferrari outputs 3-5 times more cars than Lamborghini does, they are not that exclusive. Its like saying how a Rolex is exclusive. It isn't. Ferrari is just very good at marketing and making people think its that exclusive. It is the most exclusive car everyone owns. I'm not directing anything at you, but a lot of people are misinformed from what they hear and read.

Lamborghini is extremely passionate you will find that the CEO, Stefan Winkelmann, does everything himself. He helps design and presents the cars himself. The man himself is always sharply dressed, he looks and plays the part to be the CEO of the worlds wildest production cars.

Thumbs up

Spoke today with my Lambo dealer where I have purchased my Gallardo and GTC. He already saw Mucielago SV at factory and told me that it is looking simply stunning in person, CF fibre is amazing, sporty alcantara interior is stunning. And I was told that SV will be not so pricey as mentioned before. Was told that many options which are options for regular LP will be standard for SV, such as CF brakes and there will be availability to choose stick or e-gear with no premium for e-gear. So if we compare well loaded LP and SV, price difference will be not so huge. All previously mentioned facts about weight and performance numbers are 99% correct. I think that this car will be more like Diablo GT and will hold its price better that other Lambo models since Diablo GT.
I can hardly wait until offcial launch in Geneva, already reserved tickets, want to see this car in person

Did you happen to do this with Francesco at motorstars?
