Nope, the murcielago was also designed under the watchful eye of vw/audi.
 
Design:

Murcielago: Luc Donckerwolke
Gallardo: Italdesign & Donckerwolke

Lamborghini was working on a Diablo successor before VW came in. However, VW scratched it and chose Donckerwolke's proposition. He came from Skoda and also did the Audi A2. Then, Giugiaro-Italdesign did a sketch for the Gallardo. Donckerwolke, by then head of the Centro Stile Lamborghini, refined it.
 
btw guys.. when will this season end.. i have a feeling its soon since the ep's are getting less interesting with time.
 
So, am I the only one who just loves the looks of Gallardo ?

Its a beast alright, give it to me in black....

I gotta say apart from the phat rear diffuser, I think the new Ferrari 430 aint that flash, I mean its a tarted up 360, hoped theyd go a little bit more different, but in the end at least it aint a Scag!

hmm... this is a close call... I think the Boxster is slightly better performance wise in terms of handling and power... but I've never seen a review on the Boxster on TG

Didn't you see the S2000/Boxster/Z4 review? Anyway, I'm behind the Boxster, because even though I don't like it, I dislike the SLK even more.
 
I think I saw it... it was a while ago.

I know, but I've been paying off the Al-Quaida, so when he comes to invade, I'll have my defenses ready. And I'm trying to get that Al-Zwahiri guy or whatever his name was, that Iraqui chief of defense guy. "Americans? There are no Americans". Bwhahahahahaha :lol: :lol:
