From what I know - yes, 21" wheels are possible because they seems to use second generation of Brembo CC brakes on Murcielago successor. CF chassis and brand new V12 good for 700 hp were things confirmed by all credible sources long time ago.

Not sure about June 2010, the reworking of V12 production line will only start then, this means they need some period of time to do it right. But here is what can happen - Lambo will be trying a different approach with this car putting more exclusivity in it, car will be built on pre-order basis only, this means few showroom car per dealership and no stock, that was a big problem in recent years for dealers actually. That is why it is possible that they will make a media presentation and a presentation even earlier as we think now to start building pre-orders data base, the public live debut could be made at Paris auto show with the deliveries starting early 2011. But it is only a possibility.

June is a pipe dream..HOWEVER with that said..there is possability that a "mock-up" car, as I stated prior will be ready for viewing and photos...BUT IT will not be a functional car for buyer delivery and not a complete ready to go package...like when the revealed thhe Miura concept car..no engine windows blacked out due to no interior..this "may" be the same thing to raise awareness and get some pre-orders flowing to gauge their build amount.

The days of just building cars, shippin them to Dealers to sell is LONG GONE. It is back to Pre-sales only...with pre-orders..for the flagship car to get it back to the once more rare and sought after car. IMO a good thing...

Thanks Roy. Yes something like media presentation could happen to make more pre-orders complete. But it is too early for a ready to go car.

First post here. Not sure what this is worth but, decided to post anyway. Came across a magazine at Borders. Auto & Design ($35). Mag had article about Lamborghini design and some design sketches of the Reventon, LP570 SL and LP670. The picture attached was on a page talking about the Reventon. I saw the Jota mule pics and then saw this with the large side inlet... Maybe those with Lambo design knowledge can comment.

Thanks LP700SV,

I believe this sketch is the closest we have on the Jota. It is definitely not the Reventon, but heavily inspired by it. Aside from the side air intake, the shutlines of the doors match the Jota mule. If it turns out like that, it'd look amazing. The only thing turning me off is the pricing, which is likely to go one class above.
