These Are Your Favorite Lamborghinis

Lamborghini

I was astatine Sonoma Raceway successful usually beautiful Napa Valley, California yesterday to thrust the caller Lamborghini Temerario, nan 907-horsepower plug-in-hybrid replacement for nan ultra-successful Huracán. I opportunity usually beautiful because yesterday, for illustration different parts of California, Sonoma was deed by an atmospheric river, putting a spot of a damper connected our way time aspirations. You'll person to hold until Monday to find retired what I deliberation of that caller supercar, but you don't person to hold to find retired which Lamborghinis your chap Jalops emotion nan most.

On Wednesday I asked our assemblage to show maine astir their favourite Lamborghinis, and I moreover decided to let limited-run models and concepts, arsenic Lamborghini hasn't made that galore cars successful its 62-year existence. Your answers ran nan gamut from nan astir chamber poster–worthy supercars to immoderate of nan much obscure Lambos, which I ever appreciate. Without further ado, these are my favourite answers to nan question, "What's your favourite Lamborghini?"

The Miura. Why? One evening backmost successful 1970 I was stepping pinch a French woman successful a mini municipality successful France. We heard a screaming car approaching, down shifting into municipality pinch tongues of flames shooting retired of nan exhaust astatine each blip of nan throttle. We instantly walked backmost into municipality and spotted nan car parked astatine a cafe. I don't retrieve nan colour but I surely retrieve nan make and model. After each these years, nan Miura is still nan astir desirable Lamborghini for me. By far.

Lamborghini Miura. Because that's nan communicative you want to show your kids. Three nether 25 twelvemonth aged engineers moving successful their spare clip to create nan fastest accumulation car successful nan world, each while going against nan original wishes of nan institution laminitis and yet convincing everyone that it was a worthy endeavor. It's besides a beautiful car. Can't correction it for thing else.

All nan awesome looking modern Lambos only beryllium because of really bully nan Miura looked.

It should travel arsenic nary astonishment that galore of you picked nan Miura, which has nan favoritism of being nan first real supercar.

The first car I ever saw that made maine opportunity "Wow, that is cool arsenic hell" was nan Countach. Nothing has ever wowed maine for illustration that, moreover 35 years later.

Child of nan 1980s present and there's only 1 correct answer. The 1 that hung connected our walls and we told ourselves "one day..." good earlier we wholly figured retired what a mortgage, aesculapian bills, and a family costs! It's loud. It's brash. It's gaudy. It's covered successful truthful overmuch useless and overdone crap that it took nan original creation and farted connected it. But, if there's 1 conveyance that summed up nan overdone excess, cocaine fueled, nan large pants, enarthrosis pads, White Rain fluffed, glitter rock, Miami Vice days, it's nan 25th Anniversary Countach.

It should besides travel arsenic nary astonishment that a batch of you picked nan Countach. Personally, I emotion nan laters ones pinch nan chaotic bodykits nan most.

Only reply is Diablo 6.0 VT. It was nan pinnacle of Diablo, and nan aureate yellowish colour that it came pinch and was plastered crossed magazines of nan era would look ridiculous connected beautiful overmuch immoderate different vehicle, but fresh nan creation oh-so-well.

The precocious 90's Diablo VT Roadster is my only answer. I emotion nan caller bodies coming down, but that exemplary is what put nan marque successful Celestial car territory for my childhood.

That golden motorboat spec is iconic.

It's nan LM002. Come connected it's nan only existent Lambo SUV. Its what happens erstwhile you lambo a hummer

The LM002 for me, too. It's not nan champion Lamborghini, and by today's standards, it's not moreover a awesome ace SUV. But it is TRULY deranged, arsenic a Lamborghini should be. Lamborghini started retired making tractors, past added supercars. When you harvester nan peanut food of tractors to nan cocoa of supercars, what do you get? The LM002, a V12 powered off-roader pinch a leather lined cockpit.

I don't spot anyone who doesn't for illustration the LM002.

The purple SE30 Diablo from nan Cosmic Girl euphony video is peak

Submitted by: Austin Erving

Correct.

Lamborghini Gallardo Valentino Balboni edition. Rear instrumentality thrust gated transmission pinch nan V10. If I had stupid money, that's nan 1 I would effort to way down. Only 250 were made.

The Balboni is besides my favourite Lamborghini for nan aforesaid reason. What I would do, realistically, alternatively of trying to hunt down a Balboni, is conscionable yank nan beforehand differential, thrust shaft, and half shafts disconnected a regular Gallardo. Gets you 99.9% of nan measurement there. I don't retrieve clearly, but I deliberation nan AWD strategy is wholly mechanical, truthful you don't moreover person to messiness pinch immoderate electronics.

"Gallardo Balboni" is conscionable truthful nosy to say, too.

I americium a instrumentality of nan forgotten oddballs successful their lineup. The Jarama is simply a peculiar favourite of mine.

Submitted by: Poorsche

The Jarama mightiness beryllium nan strangest-looking production Lambo.

Jalpa Forever.....

Submitted by: OldGuy55

The Jalpa is 1 of my favorites, too.

Diablo SV... nan other aero parts were amazing, nan achromatic wheels pinch nan machined articulator looked unthinkable 15 years earlier achromatic wheels became successful vogue, and who would person thought nan letters SV plastered connected nan broadside of a car could look truthful cool? Plus it had not 1 but 2 tile scoops. How cool to a kid.

Not to mention I had a standard exemplary arsenic a kid that was my favourite to play with, I whitethorn aliases whitethorn not perpetually springiness that 1 to my nephew to play with.

Special outcry retired to nan Diablo GTR, that's astir perfection.

Diablo SV, based almost wholly connected nan truth that Need For Speed III was rather perchance nan first racing crippled I ever played and was incredibly formative.

Submitted by: cintocrunch1, Frosteeman

The Diablo SV has 1 of nan champion mill graphics packages of each time.

I deliberation searching my soul, it has to beryllium nan LP-670SV.

The last and champion loop of nan Murcielago. Back earlier Lamborghini went WAY disconnected nan heavy extremity pinch superfluous scoops and angles. When a typical version meant thing for Lamborghini, and not each car sported immoderate typical sanction aliases constricted production. Initially only 350 cars were planned but moreover that number was trim short arsenic accumulation of nan Aventador took complete privilege and nan tally was ended prematurely. So acold only 261 cars are known to exist.

I almost picked nan Diablo GT for akin reasons, and nan manual transmission. But nan murcielago is conscionable aging amended than nan diablo and I deliberation nan 670SV is my pick.

Submitted by: Atomic

My favourite SV, I think.

1972 Espada bid 3, because I'm a unusual personification and emotion nan measurement it looks for illustration an Italian type of a musculus car and a CRX mashed together.

Submitted by: bb1313

More cars should beryllium shaped for illustration this.

I'm astir apt successful nan number present but (one of) my favourite is nan original 350/400GT, nan cars that started it all. Hear maine out...

Elegantly drawn, beautifully proportioned, and driven by what I tin only ideate was a howling small-displacement V-12, but my young encephalon couldn't rather comprehend that style astatine clip aft increasing up pinch images of Countach, Miura, and different wedge-y Italian exotics. Now that I'm older, that achingly gorgeous creation conscionable speaks to maine successful a measurement nary modern Lambo does.

That said with, I besides emotion nan Gallardo LP550-2 pinch nan gated manual. Just truthful you don't deliberation I'm immoderate modern car-hating troglodyte.

Submitted by: LarriveeC05

A genuinely stunning vehicle.

The Miura is correct up there, but arsenic I get older, I thin much toward thing simple. Give maine nan Islero. It's clean, elegant, and still arsenic accelerated arsenic I'd ever want to go, pinch room for luggage.

Submitted by: Eric Stockton

Another awesome oddball.

I deliberation nan Asterion is 1 of nan biggest what-ifs successful automotive history. It was rather restrained for a Lamborghini, and I loved it for that. But they didn't build it and alternatively went further down nan roadworthy of hyper-aggresive, hyper-angular creation which has done thing to clasp my interest.

Submitted by: HakosukaDreaming

This really was an awesome concept, though if I'm wishing for 1 Lambo show car to person been produced, it would beryllium nan Estoque.

The R8 270 DCR, this brought maine much joyousness than immoderate Lambo athletics cars combined...while watching nan TV...

Clarkson drove each azygous exemplary they make, but purchased only one: nan R8 270 DCR. I person to spell pinch his master recomendation.

It makes maine truthful happy that Lamborghini still makes tractors.
