Balboni was the most unsuccessful project in decade, all dealers will agree with this statement. Its quite a big difference between fanboys asking for RWD and customers who will pay for the real car. Customers don't want RWD and manuals on Lambos, sales percentage speaks for itself. So don't expect such things on LP700-4, versions based on it and the halo car.

I would be happy if Lamborghini will continue to develop RWD cars, they are so enjoyable. Things would be so much better, if they just have launched RWD LP550-2 as the entry level G-car and have kept that Balboni badge for the last irretation of Gallardo, for something really cool, not just for this overpriced thing.
Agree about ISR, that sounds to be right choice.

are all 250 Balbonis sold?
They build not all Murcielago SV`s
when i say limited edition, i must now how much i can take in the market. its a joke to say we build 350 units and at the end there are only 330 sold.
sorry for my english

Murcielago never was a halo car, flagship of the model line yes, but never a halo car, its just a mainstream production supercar. Only Lamborghini in a decade to be considered as a halo car are Reventon and Reventon Roadster. Same with LP700-4, its the flagship. And next halo car which can be considered as a successor to Reventon, but with much more differences, not only few hp and new body style is in the works. According to my information it will arrive to celebrate the Lambos Anniversary in 2013. Because Geneva auto show in 2012 will see the launch of absolutely new Gallardo successor. Also LP700-4 Roadster will arrive in a year time, so they have some work to be done before thinking about next halo car.
I also doubt Lamborghini will debut the Gallardo successor and the LP700-4 Roadster in the same year.

They seem to always wait aprox. 2/3 years before debuting a new model/variant.
See: Murciélago - 2001 / Murciélago Roadster - 2004 / LP640 - 2006 / LP670 SV - 2009
