Default Lamborghini Estoque sedan concept revealed

http://www.motorauthority.com/2008-l...n-concept.html

Damn..it looks boring for a lambo. Would have preferred a 599 style GT.

man I wanna party with you, because for me that is far from Boring. That's a sexy looking 4 door and defecates all over Maserati's attempt.
I'd trade in the BA for it without a second lost.

Would have to aggree, but I'm guessing potential Lambo dealers may screw you down on the change over......

I like it also. The back end is very stylish.

And the Maserati Quattroporte is a good looker too.

looks horn, its been a well kept secret but lambo is going to need something to compete with the AM Rapid and the Panamera. I still love the quattroporte its the best.

Agree, do not like the look from the front/side (nice rear). Give me a Superleggara any day.

Don't like it. An aurion with a few bits of cardboard cut and pasted would look pretty much the same!
I will never be able to afford one though, so my opinion is of no relevance.

Without the lower front squared air intake holes, it looks like a Ferrari. It looks nice though.

Looks like the sporty manufacturer sedan market is getting crowded.

Porsche, Aston and now Lamborghini.

With the mainstream guys BMW and Audi are meant to be bringing out Mercedes CLS competitors.

That article didn’t mention an equivalent Audi model other than “based on an A8 platform”.

Wasn’t Lamborghini’s last 4 door the LMA 4WD?

Have a look at the Chrysler Charger 4 door concept car from a few years ago - it looks VERY similar

Not for me, looks like lots of cars in one. The back end in pic 1 looks like a 300c, pic 3 the back looks like the overbite from the front of a lancer, i'd rather a ferrari 430 anyday
Feel free to flame. My suit is on..

cheers

I think it looks great. Reminds me of one of the Charger Concepts from around 2001.
