It looks like it fell out of a damn 80’s arcade game, not like something that should be driving around in RL.

From what I recall, this vehicle was designed when the Lamborghini (super)car division and the Lamborghini TRACTOR division collaborated on an SUV vehicle. Maybe the tractor division was in charge of the styling while the car division was in charge of the drivetrain. :gotme:

EDIT: Further research showed it was in fact the Lambo MILITARY division, not tractor.

> Lamborghini has stated that they are planning to bring back the SUV around 2009. It is said to share the same platform with the upcomming Audi Q5 and will contain a supercharged V-8 as well as the more powerful, V-10 Gallardo engine.

> The Lamborghini LM002 is an off-road vehicle manufactured by Lamborghini between 1986 and 1993. The LM002 was an unusual departure for Lamborghini which, at the time, was primarily known for high-performance, hand-built, super/sports cars. The LM002 was not the first of its kind to be built by Lamborghini. Two prototype vehicles, the Cheetah and the LM001, paved the way for LM002. Both vehicles used rear-mounted American power plants and were intended for military use, but were not well received...

Ok, here’s my take on that truck, and god knows I’ve worked on/driven a fair number.

1. 100k for a Euro version is stupid money. An absolutely perfect, injected, US model (1 of 50) would _barely_ be worth that
2. fun as hell to drive…when they run right.
3. the exhaust note makes sweet tiny baby jesus cry (good tears)
4. wheel/tire combination weighs more than a Civic
5. expect to replace water pumps…expect to pay over $2000 for each pump
6. the original Scorpion tires are definitely NOT available anymore, which is a shame.
7. they’re not crazy fast. figure 8 seconds to 60.
8. however, once you’re running down the highway at about 120 or so, traffic ahead of you parts like the Red Sea. All you see are great big white eyeballs in rearview mirrors
9. when you get a flat tire in Jackson Hole, WY…you’re utterly fuckzored

that’s all I’ve got for now

The Dakar version is pretty Siqqqq even though it never actually made it to the Paris Dakar.

I bet the exhaust note of the “open exhaust” on the race version sounded amazing drifting through shit during the two rallies it was in, like the second picture.

That does look badass, but for some reason the suspension travel seems to be kinda short for a rally vehicle. Looks like that thing would come down hard.

Obvious answer…

If you drive one of those mosters you have a dick to match. The chick just has to reach across, pull some over to her side and go to work.

Here’s the MXT that we have at work on loan from Navistar. It would own that Lambo.
