Lamborghini Makes 5 Bangers now? Or did they cut a Gallardo V10 in half and give you a side of it?
Its a half block yes 5cylinder. Lamborghini company is actually a subsidiary of VW now.
I know, exactly
But the V10 was only produced under the direction of VW, using VW engineers, VW stock, and VW technicians. The V10 is now hand assembled in Lamborghini Factories. The 5 cylinder is machine assembled at VW factories. In no way did lambo design or touch the 5 cylinder motors. It was VWs cost cutting efforts to take the existing VW designed, Lambo built V10 block and cut it in half on paper, to make their own 5 cylinder in house. All I’m saying is your ad is misleading and geared entirely to attract the unsuspecting buyer. Even I stopped and said WOW, Lamborghini made that motor??? Only to let the technical history side of me step in front and clear it up.
Suggestion: You should revise all of your ads and be straight forward with your sales. No one likes to be tricked, duped or scammed and I’m sure you wouldn’t like it either.
I don’t intend to duped or scam. Actually the dealership informed me in pretty much those exact words, Lamborghini engine block. I didn’t bother to look in great detail of the extend of it. Ive also seen reviews saying things like it shares “its 20-valve cylinder head with one bank of the Lamborghini Gallardo’s V10” or engine designed by Lamborghini. All the positives reviews will be worded in such way to imply this I suppose. Such is pretty much everything else in the world in media, sales and advertising etc…This is why everyone loves a salesman! right???. I’ll change the post to reflect more of your concern within wording. If and when someone does buy this car I want them to be happy with the purchase and not feel they were mislead in anyway.
Thanks for the concern, I too have grown a little more informed within the “engine design” claim.
