And the world in Italy, Lamborghini is a strange and mysterious to the birth of a surprise launch of a people and a staggering of the super sports car. Lamborghini can best represent the history of Rome in 2700, seven hill city of Rome was not built the city's defense, the expansion and the moment in the initial attack on the rally in the blood. Lamborghini Ferrari born is the enemy, but also doomed to all the world's super sports car is a strong opponent. It is the devil, but not to the ravages of the world. It is Satan, because it is taking another type of line. It is the rare works of art around the world, Italy's most prestigious designers Gandini its efforts into life. Every corner, every line is so perfect, are almost silent Lamborghini original interpretation of the United States. How many people can not have it, because it is expensive to the point can not be imagined. It is high, breathing the rarefied air of the sky, attracting the eyes of admiration on the ground.
Lamborghini supercar, the Ferrari as a challenge to come to earth, and perhaps one day will be born with the mission to change, but the life extension for the same is absurd and unconscionable乖张. Such a maverick sports car brand is the world for decades with the car chase scene the focus of adventure.
解释：在意大利乃至全世界，兰博基尼是诡异的，它神秘地诞生，出人意料地推出一款又一款的让人咋舌的超级跑车。兰博基尼最能代表罗马2700年的历史，七丘之城罗马建城于不易防守之地，扩张与攻击在最初的一刻就凝聚于血脉之中。兰博基尼生来是法拉利的敌人，也注定就是世界所有超级跑车的强劲对手。它是恶魔，但并非要蹂躏这个世界。它是撒旦，只因它走另外一类路线。它是举世难得的艺术品,意大利最具声望的设计大师甘迪尼为其倾注一生的心血。每一个棱角、每一道线条都是如此完美，都在默默诠释兰博基尼近乎原始的美。没有多少人可以拥有它，因为它昂贵到无可想象的地步。它高高在上，呼吸着天空稀薄的空气，吸引着地上景仰的目光。
兰博基尼超级跑车，为挑战法拉利而来到人间，也许有一天出生时的使命会改变，但是其终生延承不变的是其乖张荒诞与不合情理。如此一个特立独行的跑车品牌是数十年来世界车坛追逐与猎奇的焦点。

The two main model Lamborghini Countach and the Diablo, countach model in Geneva in 1973 the first World Exposition of the meeting.
Lamborghini鲁吉欧charges after the war in Italy to create a series of tractors, oil burner and air-conditioning system, so as to set its own brand reputation, and in 1963 in Italy, Sant 'Agata depot set up their own. This is said to have a Lamborghini sports car fans and enzo ferrari intention (Enzo Ferrari) met for its products would like to mention some suggestions for improvement. However, Ferrari and a tractor has no intention of listening to the views of manufacturers. Although without research, this anecdote has been in the circle. The truth no matter how, one year after the first Lamborghini sports car - Lamborghini 350GTV - is available, and it marks a period of amazing success of the beginning of the road. No one can think of some of the world's future super-celebrities will be competing for the purchase of Lamborghini, have a long list of Frank Sinatra (Frank Sinatra) and Paul McCartney (Paul McCartney). All in all the times recorded in the annals of the most successful sports car are all contained in a Lamborghini sports car of the two well-known "Countach" and the "Miura".
Twists and turns through a series of frustrations, the fee鲁吉欧Lamborghini finally retire from the company in 1972. Lamborghini (whether or company) has never been a lack of imagination, but it has been the lack of solid financial support. In fact, the Lamborghini of bankruptcy in 1980, Italy米兰姆businessmen brothers acquired the company. Later, Lamborghini has several owners, including Chrysler. But they did not show the true lovers of concern Lamborghini. In fact, Lamborghini and Audi has been deeply origin, their previous cooperation in the pursuit of aluminum chassis structure. This relationship was marriage success in 1998, joined the Volkswagen Group Lamborghini. The financial support of the Audi, Lamborghini has its own management team to operate. Under the management of the Audi plant in 2003, introducing the concept of the Murciélago and Gallardo.
The integration of this culture is not easy (full of exotic car manufacturers and a global automotive giant, a group with a group of passionate Italians and Germans proud). The result is a complete retrofit and rehabilitation of the Lamborghini. Audi can also have the ability to provide a large number of technical support, and the Volkswagen Group's financial support will allow Lamborghini to pursue the development of new products, it is impossible in the past.
Evidence of rehabilitation is obvious: after all these years, Lamborghini once on the introduction of two new models, factory facilities have been expanding and updating, the latest being the new Institute. In addition, the Lamborghini Museum also began to open the door. If you go to Modena, we will certainly be going to visit the Lamborghini museum.
"Audi history and culture" department Commissioner for the museum to highlight the theme of this exhibition came to adopt a new tactic. Key to display the current Murciélago and Gallardo sports car two after the launch, Lamborghini and its impact on the impact of present and future. Shown divided into four themes: the founder of charges including鲁吉欧Lamborghini introduced the background information; their job performance during the period; interspersed play the 20th century until the early 70s was in 1998 acquired a new chapter in the Audi. Tightly around the entire contents - " '奔牛' marks 40 years of wind and rain accompanied by Lamborghini" - the most memorable theme of the exhibition.
And the world in Italy, Lamborghini is strange that this person, the legend, and the poor. As a die-hard Ferrari fans, he also manufacturing tractors in 1959, at the same time also offering air-conditioning and radiator. Wanted to build a Lamborghini Aircraft Corporation, was the Italian government refused. Lamborghini Super Ferrari fans is that he owns a Ferrari sports car four, of course, with his air-conditioned tractor radiator-earned money to buy the. Lamborghini Ferrari favorite 250 of the failure, was looking for sports car manufacturer Ferrari gearbox problem complaints, refused. While angrily denouncing Ferrari Lamborghini father - enzo ferrari (Enzo Ferrari), enzo ferrari more must answer: do not need a tractor to tell me how to make a sports bar! (Early, like the Ferrari and now the哄哄MA牛逼, they put all the efforts on the car, the general civilian vehicle just to make money to subsidize R & D Racing, the Ferrari-level civilian control of the performance of the road in general, car owners do not satisfaction but did not dare complain, because it may be to prohibit the purchase of the Ferrari, it seems that everyone has the low sex).
Nature of the Lamborghini孤傲respected by their own people by making a mockery of such a consequence is still serious: Treasures from the sale of its four视若Ferrari sports car and go bankrupt, "Lamborghini sports car manufacturer Co., Ltd." In the distance of both Ferrari Modena 15 km of the new Sant agata bolohgess.
On the means of the next Lamborghini - Ferrari and Maserati dug from a large number of people, including well-known贝萨里尼(Giotto Bizzarini), the designer of Ferrari 250GTO, he in the 20th century, the impact of the Italian car scene power even higher than the Enzo and佛瑞肯, he designed the 3.5-liter 360-horsepower V-12 engine has become the banner of Lamborghini Ferrari challenge.贝萨里尼enough personality that he renegade Ferrari enzo ferrari because he refused to allow the use of independent suspension, many years later is too late often enzo ferrari贝萨里尼of release!
October 26, 1963, Turin, Italy, auto show, Lamborghini launch of his first works 350GTV (chassis number 0100), speed 280 km / h, only one production. Finally, a devil was born, a devil take the independent route, the devil of the most prestigious Italian designers Gandini life into their efforts.
Mr. Lamborghini died in 1993.
解释：兰博基尼的两大主流车型是Countach和Diablo，countach车型是在1973年的日内瓦世界汽车博览会上首次次出的。
费鲁吉欧·兰博基尼在意大利战后制造了一系列的拖拉机、燃油燃烧器及空调系统，从而为自己的品牌树立了声望，并于1963年在意大利Sant 'Agata 成立了自己的车厂。据说有一次兰博基尼这个跑车迷打算和恩佐·法拉利（Enzo Ferrari）会面，想对其产品提些改进建议。然而法拉利并无意听取一个拖拉机制造商的意见。虽未经考证，这则轶事始终在圈内流传。不论事实真相如何，一年后首款兰博基尼跑车——兰博基尼350GTV——面世了，它标志着一段令人称奇的成功之路的开始。没人能想到日后世界上的一些超级名流会竞相购买兰博基尼，长长的名册中有法兰克·辛纳屈（Frank Sinatra）和保罗·麦卡特尼（Paul McCartney）。所有记载各个时代最成功跑车的编年史中无一不载录了兰博基尼的两款著名跑车“ Countach”和“ Miura”。
经历了一系列坎坷波折之后，费鲁吉欧·兰博基尼终于在1972年从公司隐退。兰博基尼（不管是人还是公司）从来不缺乏想象力，但一直缺少稳固的资金支持。实际上，兰博基尼在1980年破产，意大利商人米兰姆兄弟收购了该公司。后来，兰博基尼还数次易主，其中也包括克莱斯勒汽车公司。但它们没有表现出对兰博基尼真正的爱好者关注。实际上，兰博基尼和奥迪一直深有渊源，它们以前合作追求铝质底盘的构造。这种关系终于在1998年成就姻缘，兰博基尼加入大众汽车集团。在奥迪的资助下，兰博基尼有了自己的管理班子来运作。在奥迪的管理下，该厂在2003年分别推出了Murciélago概念车和Gallardo。
这种文化的融合并不容易（充满异域情调的汽车制造商和一个全球汽车制造巨头，一群满怀激情的意大利人和一群骄傲的德国人）。结果是一个彻底改型和复兴的兰博基尼。奥迪有能力也可以提供大量的技术支持，而大众集团的资金支持也允许兰博基尼追求新产品的发展，这一点在以前是不可能的。
复兴的证明显而易见：经过这么多年，兰博基尼一下子就引入了两款全新的车型，工厂设施也得到扩张和更新，最近还在新建设计院。另外，兰博基尼博物馆也开始打开大门。如果你要去莫迪那，就一定要去参观兰博基尼博物馆。
“奥迪历史文化”部门的博物馆专员为突出此次展览会的主题特地采用了全新的手段。重点展示了现在的Murciélago和Gallardo两款跑车的面世经过，及其对兰博基尼现在和未来的影响。放映分为四个主题：包括创始人费鲁吉欧·兰博基尼的背景资料介绍；其在职期间的业绩；穿插播放20世纪70年代早期直至1998年被奥迪收购的新篇章。整个内容紧紧围绕——“‘奔牛’标志伴随兰博基尼风雨40年”——这一极具纪念意义的展览会主题。
在意大利乃至全世界，兰博基尼这个人是诡异的、传奇的、可怜的。作为法拉利的铁杆车迷，他1959年还在制造拖拉机，同时还兼做空调和暖气片。兰博基尼本想建立一家飞机公司，被意大利政府严词拒绝。兰博基尼是法拉利的超级粉丝，他拥有四辆法拉利跑车，当然是用他生产拖拉机暖气片空调赚来的钱买的。兰博基尼最喜欢的法拉利250出了故障，遂找法拉利跑车制造公司投诉变速箱问题，遭拒。气愤之余兰博基尼声讨法拉利之父——恩佐法拉利（Enzo Ferrari），恩佐法拉利的答复更绝：用不着一个做拖拉机的来告诉我如何制造跑车吧！（早期的法拉利和现在一样马哄哄的牛逼，他们把所有的精力都放在赛车上，一般民用车只是为了赚钱来补贴赛车研发，民用级的法拉利路面操控性能一般，车主们不满意却不敢抱怨，因为这样可能会被禁止购买法拉利，看来人人都有贱性）。
生性孤傲的兰博基尼被自己所敬重的人如此嘲弄，后果还算严重：变卖了自己视若珍宝的四辆法拉利跑车并倾家荡产，“兰博基尼跑车制造股份有限公司”在距离法拉利之都Modena仅15公里的Sant agata bolohgess新建。
接下来兰博基尼就不择手段了——从法拉利和玛莎拉蒂挖了大批人才，包括著名的贝萨里尼（Giotto Bizzarini），法拉利250GTO的设计师，他在20世纪意大利车坛的影响力甚至高于恩佐和佛瑞肯，他设计的3.5升360马力的V-12发动机成为兰博基尼挑战法拉利的旗帜。贝萨里尼也够个性的，他叛离法拉利的原因是恩佐法拉利拒绝让他使用独立后悬挂，多年后恩佐法拉利对放走贝萨里尼追悔莫及！
1963年10月26日，意大利都灵车展，兰博基尼推出他的第一部作品350GTV（底盘编号0100），极速280公里/小时，仅生产一辆。终于，一个恶魔诞生了，一个走特立独行路线的恶魔，这个恶魔让意大利最具声望的设计大师甘迪尼为其倾注一生的心血。
兰博基尼先生于1993年去世。
Lamborghini Reventon
The essence of the marque: just 20 examples of a design masterpiece
Clearly a Lamborghini, but nothing quite like it. A super car without equals: the Lamborghini Reventón is a road vehicle with an extreme specification and, at the same time, a limited edition masterpiece - a coherent style, angular with sharp lines, inspired by the very latest aeronautics.
With just 20 produced, each 1 Million Euro (without taxes) Lamborghini Reventón is a symbol of extreme exclusivity, yet still offering the extraordinary performance that makes the Reventón so unrivalled: under the completely autonomous design, the Reventón possesses the entire technical and dynamic competence of the twelve cylinder Lamborghini.
Lamborghini prides itself on being the extraordinary manufacturer of extreme super sports cars without compromise. Sensuality and provocation characterise every Lamborghini, with an aggressively innovative style. "However, the Reventón is the most extreme of all, a true automotive superlative. Our designers at the Lamborghini Style Centre took the technical base of the Murciélago LP640 and compressed and intensified its DNA, its genetic code," affirms Stephan Winkelmann, President and CEO of Automobili Lamborghini S.p.A.
Born in Sant'Agata Bolognese
The Lamborghini Reventón has been entirely designed in Sant'Agata Bolognese, the original birthplace of the Lamborghini and the native home of every super car born under the sign of the bull. The design drawn up in Lamborghini's Centro Stile (Style Centre) is fine-tuned in close collaboration with the Lamborghini Research and Development Department. Thus, the Reventón is not only "haute couture" but it also stands out for its elevated dynamism whilst being entirely suitable for every day use.
The Lamborghini Reventón is not destined to remain a one-off. A total of 20 Lamborghini friends and collectors will be able to own this extraordinary car and, naturally, enjoy the incomparable pleasure of driving it.
The name Reventón has been chosen according to Lamborghini tradition. Reventón was a fighting bull, owned by the Don Rodriguez family. It is included in the list of the most famous bulls ever and is known for killing the famed bullfighter Felix Guzman in 1943.
Inspired by the fastest airplanes
The present day Lamborghini models are distinguished by the clear language of their shape. The coherent proportions of the Murciélago and Gallardo highlight their power and dynamism. Sharp edges, precise lines and clean surfaces: these are ingredients of a style reduced to the essential. Each element is created exactly according to its function; ornaments and decorations are totally foreign to a Lamborghini.
With the Reventón the Centro Stile designers have coherently developed this philosophy, inspired by another sphere where speed and dynamism reign absolute: modern aeronautics, responsible for the fastest and most agile airplanes in the world. This has created an extremely precise, technically striking style with a new vitality: interrupted lines and contorted surfaces create a fascinating play of light, giving the car incredible movement.
Made of carbon fibre and precision
Although it is based on the extraordinarily successful Murciélago LP640, the exterior design of the Reventón is completely new. Just like the base model, the exterior is made of CFC, a composite carbon fibre material, which is as stable as it is light. The exterior components are glued and fixed to the body comprised of CFC and steel.
The front is characterised by the acute angle of the central 'arrow' and by the powerful forward-facing air intakes. Although they do not supply air directly to the turbine like an airplane, bearing in mind the 650 hp, an abundant volume of air is necessary to cool the carbon brake disks and the six cylinder callipers.
Characterised by coherent functions
Naturally, both doors on the Reventón open upwards - since the legendary Countach this has also been a symbol of the V12 Lamborghini product line. With their asymmetric configuration, the large air intakes below the doors provide an example of the extreme coherence with which a Lamborghini fulfils its function: on the driver's side it is large to increase the flow of oil to the radiator. On the passenger's side of the vehicle, the air intake is flat because in this case, it only has to ensure the flow below the floor. The aerodynamically optimised flat floor structure terminates at the rear with a diffuser featuring an accentuated shape. This guarantees excellent road grip and stability even at 340 km per hour.
In spite of the extreme and innovative language of its shape, the Reventón not only maintains all the strong features of the Murciélago LP640, but also offers further amelioration in terms of aerodynamics, the important engine cooling system, the air intake system and brakes. The airflow and the section of the variable geometry air intakes of the engine and the rear spoiler (also adjustable) have been modified.
Owners of the 20 examples will be able to test the performance of his or her Lamborghini in person.
Perfected to the ultimate detail
The engine hood made of glass laminate with open ventilation slits offers a glimpse of the beating heart of the twelve cylinders of the super car. The glass also features the marked arrow angle that characterises the design from the front to the rear spoiler. The Lamborghini designers' love for detail is beautifully illustrated by the fuel tank lid: a small mechanical work of art, achieved by milling a solid aluminium block.
The combination lights transform the incisiveness of the design into light: the front features the most modern light-emitting diodes alongside Bi-Xenon headlights. Seven LEDs ensure continuous daylight while there are a further nine diodes for the indicator and hazard lights. Another technical innovation is found in the rear light LEDs. Because of the high temperature in the rear low part of the car, special heatproof LEDs are used for the indicator and hazard lights, stoplights and rear lights with a triple arrow optical effect.
A new body colour
Naturally, such a refined language of shape also demands an extraordinary colour. For the 20 examples of the Reventón, the designers from Sant'Agata Bolognese have created a totally new hue: Reventón, a mid opaque green/grey without the usual shine. However, thanks to the metallic particles, in the daylight this colour tone features surprising depth.
Opaque and brilliant colours for the wheel rims
This play of opaque and lustre is also featured on the wheel rims, especially created for the Reventón. Opaque carbon fins are screwed onto the black aluminium spokes, not only creating a visual effect with the precision of a surgeon's scalpel, but a turbine effect also ensures optimum cooling for the powerful ceramic brake disks.
TFT display similar to an airplane
The same innovative force applied to the exterior design characterises the cockpit of the Reventón. Designed and created using Alcantara, carbon, aluminium and leather that comply with the top quality standards, the interior is inspired by the next generation cockpits: just like in modern airplanes, the instruments comprise three TFT liquid crystal displays with innovative display modes. At the touch of a button, the driver can choose from two vehicle information display modes. The instruments are housed in a structure milled from a solid aluminium block, protected by a carbon fibre casing.
The G-Force-Meter is also completely new: this display shows the dynamic drive forces, longitudinal acceleration during acceleration and braking, as well as transversal acceleration around bends. These forces are represented by the movement of an indicator on a graduated 3D grid depending on the direction and intensity of the acceleration. A similar instrument can be found in the airplanes. Formula One teams also use a similar device to analyse dynamic forces.
Customisable instruments
The instrument on the left of the speedometer associates the number of revolutions in the form of a luminous column with the display of the selected gear. Finally, every Reventón is equipped with a robotised e.gear controlled by two small levers under the steering wheel.
By simply pressing a button, the driver can switch to the second, quasi-analogical display, where the classic circular instruments, speedometer and engine speed indicator are configured in an equally innovative way and transformed into luminous pilot lamps with varying colours. The G-Force-Meter naturally remains at the centre in this display mode.
Electronic system developed entirely by Lamborghini
All this is possible thanks to the fact that the entire electronic platform of the Reventón, together with all the control devices, has been autonomously developed by the Lamborghini experts.
The same process for integrating the electronic displays in the car was applied to the Lamborghini Engineering Department.
From the conception of the very first radical ideas, the entire Reventón has been developed in Sant'Agata Bolognese thanks to tight teams of remarkably creative experts. An extremely refined and efficient process was employed: CAD design and development, creation of the prototype in the Prototype Department, all carried out under the constant supervision of the Research and Development Department's technicians and testers.
Atelier of creativity and high efficiency
Inaugurated in 2004, the Centro Stile is dedicated to design and characterised by a high degree of efficiency: an "atelier" of creators, designers and prototype constructors, who encapsulate the Lamborghini culture and spirit by using their remarkable skills to create aesthetic innovation.
The Centro Stile is located in a 2,900 square two-storey building. The large pavilion houses two test floors and related production and analysis equipment, while other rooms are set aside for the most advanced computerised workstations for designers and a style-model construction workshop. The Centro Stile is also closely linked to the nearby Engineering Department: the direct line between the Lamborghini development departments guarantees that ideas rapidly become reality.
Creativity and production under the same roof
The Lamborghini Reventón is a practical illustration of the streamlined functionality and efficiency characterising the Centro Stile: it took less than a year to progress from the first ideas to the finished car. The complete design process from the first sketches on paper, to three dimensional computer models with 1:10 or 1:4 scale, right up to the real size prototype is organised around streamlined, fast, efficient work groups. Thanks to the Centro Stile, for the first time in its history, Lamborghini is now able to create its own style philosophy in-house without having to rely on any external collaboration.
The 20 units will be manufactured in Sant'Agata, using a production process characterised by artisan perfection and rigorous quality standards.
A masterpiece with tested technology
The technology found in the Murciélago LP640 has not been modified. The engine in the LP640 forwards is the classic twelve-cylinder engine with 6.5 litre displacement. Only for this car, Lamborghini guarantees, an astounding 650 HP (478 kW) at 8,000 revolutions per minute (rpm). The huge torque, equal to maximum 660 Nm, ensures a powerful switch from any number of revolutions: even the slightest pressure on the accelerator is spontaneously transformed into thrust. The robotised e.gear changes gear faster than even the most expert driver. In addition, the permanent Viscous Traction four-wheel drive system ensures that every force is constantly translated into movement.
As in the original Murciélago LP640, the Reventón accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in just 3.4 seconds, with a maximum speed over 340 km/h.
Born to become a legend
Since its foundation, Lamborghini has been a creator of trends in the world of sports cars and has always manufactured cars with an absolutely unmistakable character. Models such as the Miura or Countach, for example, were veritable forerunners and rapidly acquired the status of timeless classic cars. From the moment they are launched, every new Lamborghini promises to become a legend, destined to become a sought-after and precious possession.
With the Lamborghini Reventón, Lamborghini has done it again; it has created an unequalled super car; the perfect synthesis between the exclusivity and appeal of a limited edition design masterpiece, and the dynamism and driveability of a standard sports car. Thus, the Lamborghini legend is further enhanced by another, stylish future classic.

Ferruccio Lamborghini was born in Italy in 1916. He was fascinated with engines from an early age. During World War II he joined the army and was stationed on the island of Rhodes. Fortunately there was little going on there during the war. The island was essentially isolated from the rest of the world. Any cars, trucks or motorcycles that broke down had to be repaired on the spot with reused parts. Lamborghini became known as a wizard at mechanical improvisation and became very much in demand at fixing engines.
After the war he returned to his home near Modena in northern Italy and setup a small car and motorcycle repair shop. He soon realized that there was a desperate need for tractors in the agricultural area in which he lived. He found he could build about one tractor a month from derelict military vehicles. As Italy's economy grew demand for his high quality tractors started to grow. He began building his own tractor engines. His tractor business became very successful reaching a rate of over 400 a month in 1960. He soon looked at expanding the business and in 1960 began manufacturing heaters and air conditioning units for buildings as well as maintaining the tractor business. This too became very successful.
About this time Lamborghini started to get interested in developing a high performance car. He had owned Oscas, Maseratis and Ferraris but was always disappointed with them. Particularly their engines. There is a now famous story about how he was frustrated with problems he had with a clutch in a Ferrari (a Ferrari 250 GT), and went to visit Enzo Ferrari who's factory was nearby. Enzo had no time for a tractor manufacture and simply dismissed him. Lamborghini decided there was nothing Ferrari was doing he could not do better. He decided to build his own car with a V12 engine. For the design he found a very talented engineer named Giampaolo Dallara who had previously worked on a Ferrari V12 engine.
The new engine had 4 cams, a short stroke and 4 big bore valves per cylinder. It developed a surprising 350 HP. It was an all aluminum engine with a crankshaft supported by seven main bearings. These crankshafts were machined from SAE 9840 steel. The connecting rods (12) were of SAE 4340 steel. The pistons were of forged aluminum. Each pair of camshafts were driven by their own half engine speed sprocket and silent chain. This engine was really the prototype for all future Lamborghini engines. A body designed by Scaglione-Touring was used to house the engine.
The Lamborghini "350 GTV" prototype was shown to the public on the Turin Auto Show of 1963. Sales started the following year. The car was called the 350 GT. It was a complete success. Over 130 were sold.The future of Automobili Lamborghini looked very bright during the sixties. The 350 GT was succeeded by the 400 GT and then the 400 GT 2+2. The 350 GT and 400 GT 2+2 made the Lamborghini name known throughout the world. With the funds coming in from these cars and his successful tractor business Ferruccio allowed his engineers to design and construction a new car - the Lamborghini Miura. The Miura made the Lamborghini name legendary. It was a car truly ahead of its time. It shocked even companies like Ferrari and Maserati.
The Miura was first shown on November 1965 at the Turin Auto Show by Ferruccio Lamborghini himself. Only the chassis was shown at the show, the engine was transversely mid-mounted, something up to then only seen in real F1 race cars. The design of the body was executed by Marcello Gandini in less than a year, and on the March 1966 Geneva Show it was completed and on display. It looked even better than in Turin. The car was very aggressively styled, and an appropriate name was chosen for it, the Miura, a name taken from the ferocious Spanish fighting bulls. Again the car was a complete success.
This was followed in 1973 at the Geneva Auto Show when Lamborghini shocked the world again with his revolutionary LP400 Countach. Only a prototype was shown. Today it is difficult to realize the impact that car had on everybody at that time. Even now the car is a show stopper! The car at the show was painted in a bright red and with a black suede interior. It showed for the first time, the by now, famous, Lamborghini signature swing up doors. It also displayed unique vertically mounted rear air intakes to go with its powerful 4 Liter engine.
In 1974 disaster struck. The Lamborghini tractor business received a major setback. A massive order for tractors to a south American country was cancelled. Lamborghini anticipating the demand, had previously upgraded the tractor factory to be able to build the numbers of tractors required. The company lost a lot of money over it. Compounding things also at this time was a series of labor problems at the factory. While his personal fortune was still considerable he decided to sell part of his share in the factory. Eventually the factory was taken over by Fiat.
During the seventies the company survived on sales of Miura's. The car business started to be self sufficient and make money. However Lamborghini eventually sold all his remaining stock in the company to a Swiss investor. The company to this day still retains his name however. Ferruccio Lamborghini died in February 1993 at the age of almost 72
The oil crisis of the 70's started to made sales of high performance cars difficult. Production art the factory was plagued with budget and parts supply problems. People gave up waiting for cars with two year back orders. A wealthy Canadian, Walter Wolf, played a major role is supporting Lamborghini and developing the Countach during these difficult times.
In 1978 the company declared bankruptcy. An Italian court was appointed to find a buyer. A Swiss based group called the Mimran brother's were able to save the factory. Patrick Mimran (one of the brothers), in 1980 started to turn the company around. The Countach was developed further under him from the LP500 S right up to the impressive QuattroValvole. .
Just as things were going well, the Mimran brothers sold the company to Chrysler Corporation. This was a big surprise at the time. Chrysler support however was just what the company needed at that time. They were working on a Countach successor -- the Diablo. Chrysler kept the winning team together in Italy. While the cultures of the two companies were different and things got stressful between the management groups, they did succeed in bringing the vast resources of Chrysler to bear on the design, pollution controls, and new manufacturing techniques etc. for the new car.
Again the result was an outstanding success. The new Lamborghini Diablo got rave reviews everywhere it went. However in another twist of faith, in 1994 Chrysler fell upon hard times and had to sell the company. It was bought by an Indonesian investment group headed by Tommy Suharto of the well known Suharto family. Unfortunately in the late 90's an economical crisis started to hit the Indonesian owners hard and the much needed money for research on a successor to the Diablo started to dry up.
Fortunately the German company Audi had an interest in Lamborghini. On August 4 1998, in a complex series of transactions Audi AG became the sole owner of Automobili Lamborghini. As in the case of the Chrysler buyout, this could not have been a better time for Lamborghini. Audi took an active role in designing the Murcielago and brought to the table again the vast resources of a major automobile company to develop and produce another exotic car.
Lets hope this is the last chapter of ownership changes in this unique little Italian car company. It is to the credit of the people there that they have hung in to all the changes of ownership they have experienced over the years and yet produced such exciting cars.
