The back side reminds me of the Batmobile.

It looks unfinished or debadged.. and the naming on the image makes it sound like a top secret new lambo.. Can't tell with the snow, but the front bumper doesnt look painted..

Doing some research, I found that lambo is bringing back the Miura but it doesnt look like this car. Of course, it doesn't look like it has 1 possible look.. 2 different sites had totally different pics..

Check them out here:



And the articles are only about 5 days apart!!

EDIT: Looks like the yellow one was shown at the Detroit Auto Show this year..

That is V16 production car which was built in Italy under American finance called the Cizeta Moroder. The car lloked like a Diablo with a cheap 80's body kit. However, upon closer inspection, this may very well be a Diablo with a body kit to look like the Cizta. Not sure if that's ironic or not...

Actually it doesn't have a "cheap" 80s body kit (even though it was built in the mid 80s). Giorgio Moroder (the same guy who sang "Electric Dreams") and some other dude created this masterpiece with a lot of help from the Lambo guys. Lamborghini came out with their Diablo thereafter.

It was a fantastic car that was never really released for worldwide production and no I did not do a google to share this info.

It looks like the NSX that was kitted to a Diablo. I forget what the website is but it has step-by-step pics of the transformation process.
