Title: Apparently Shivans started building cars...
Post by: Dysko on March 05, 2013, 05:13:13 am
The new Lamborghini Veneno totally looks like a Shivan fighter!

The Lamborghini factory is only a 2 hours drive from where I live, should I expect a Shivan attack? :shaking:

It's a Lamborghini factory.  It's only a 1 hour drive from where you live.

 Kopachris is right. Don't forget Shivan subspace drives are better than ours.

The Veneno is reported to mark Lamborghini's 50th anniversary, and will be built in a production run of just three, each with a price tag of around $4.6 million and each one bearing a color of the Italian flag (green, white or red). And no, Richie Rich, you can't have one, because all three are already sold.

Damn.

The back end of that car had me reaching for my joystick and preparing to shove a double pair of hornets up it. :D

Now, the question is of course "when will it be on Top Gear?"

Considering how long it took them to get a Ferrari Enzo, and there were (IIRC) around 300 of those, but only 3 of these, I would estimate 50 years.

Agreed. I'd take a Lamborghini Diablo SE30 over it any day.

Wait for pictures of the red one, then we'll talk.

And I think Ferrari has that beat.
(They didn't actually design this, it was one of the finalists for their 2011 World Design Competition)

He'd hardly be able to see a thing, that's for sure. Somehow, I think I'd rather stick with old, mundane Dodge Stratus.

If it wasn't for the huge turn radius and poor access to the back seat, it'd be a perfect car for me. Good engine power and fuel consumption, comfortable and good looking. And no problems with being mistaken for a Shivan. :)
