For all of those RWD lovers out there, the torque split on this car is 90%Rear 10%Front under no-slip conditions. The opposite of my Audi TT which is 95%front, 5%rear Haldex system.

The color is nice, almost like Audi's Aviator Gray paint offered on the 2001 Audi TT (and maybe on other Audi cars, other years, not sure)]]>Mar 1st 2006 12:32PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2006/03/01/geneva-motor-show-lamborghini-murcielago-lp640-world-premiere/http://www.autoblog.com/2006/03/01/geneva-motor-show-lamborghini-murcielago-lp640-world-premiere/
I love the look and sound of exotic supercars but in reality, if you line up all the recently unveiled concepts and the soon-to-be-built production models, they're basically all the same, except for the goofy one where the passenger sits behind the driver.

Just how many mega-million dollar, lethal in the hands of almost everyone except F1 drivers, super cars does the world need?]]>Mar 1st 2006 12:41PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2006/03/01/geneva-motor-show-lamborghini-murcielago-lp640-world-premiere/http://www.autoblog.com/2006/03/01/geneva-motor-show-lamborghini-murcielago-lp640-world-premiere/Mar 1st 2006 12:41PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2006/03/01/geneva-motor-show-lamborghini-murcielago-lp640-world-premiere/http://www.autoblog.com/2006/03/01/geneva-motor-show-lamborghini-murcielago-lp640-world-premiere/Mar 1st 2006 2:06PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2006/03/01/geneva-motor-show-lamborghini-murcielago-lp640-world-premiere/http://www.autoblog.com/2006/03/01/geneva-motor-show-lamborghini-murcielago-lp640-world-premiere/

I think they're going (finally?) in the original Lamborghini direction. Being as bold and aggressive and 'supercarish' as possible.
Everything in that car screams "Look at me! I am a ferocious beast".
Its color: a pastel grey/blue. When acid green and bright yellow become 'regular' colors, "quiet is the new loud". That color, so neutral attracts the eye beautifully.
And the contrast of the yellow brake calipers on the black rims? Astonishing.
Not to talk about the huge tailpipe and the whole bodywork.

For the first time in a few years, I am impressed with a Lambo.]]>Mar 2nd 2006 3:59AMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2006/03/01/geneva-motor-show-lamborghini-murcielago-lp640-world-premiere/http://www.autoblog.com/2006/03/01/geneva-motor-show-lamborghini-murcielago-lp640-world-premiere/Mar 2nd 2006 10:18AMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2006/03/01/geneva-motor-show-lamborghini-murcielago-lp640-world-premiere/http://www.autoblog.com/2006/03/01/geneva-motor-show-lamborghini-murcielago-lp640-world-premiere/Mar 2nd 2006 10:52AMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2006/03/01/geneva-motor-show-lamborghini-murcielago-lp640-world-premiere/http://www.autoblog.com/2006/03/01/geneva-motor-show-lamborghini-murcielago-lp640-world-premiere/
