doesnt seem like theyre denying it either:

> Arrinera says inspiration for the car’s design comes from the radar-evading stealth fighter aircraft. However, there is no denying the Lamborghini styling cues, which, to name just a few, include a Reventon-esque front end, Gallardo-like rear intakes, and vents ahead of the rear wheels that are similar to those on the Murcielago. Access to the Arrinera is through Lamborghini doors, fitting considering the look of the car.

Don’t care, looks great. In this day and age you can throw a stone without hitting two cars that look alike. Just gotta build or buy what you like.

Oh fucking christ just read the article. Yeah that’s a modern age Ultima GTR on steroids. One of the original Ultima designers, and also LS powered. Go figure. That thing will scoot.

No heritage = no soul. That covers about 95% of the car on the road today. The “supercar” term is being thrown around far too often these days though, again going back to throwing stones.

And more kit cars use the LS motors than any other. Hell I know of quite a few GT40/Lola knock-offs that use LS motors :lol

All the modern super cars have the stealth fighter look. I guess it’s inevitable that one or two look very similar.

well, if you cant come up with a design all your own, pick a few good ones and tweak them just enough to where you and vanilla ice can tell stories about how the subtle changes “makes it yours”
