New Lambo

[Knoxville]

I've got to say, i prefer this over the murciealago



I love the idea of it being a v10 power plant aswell, which seems to be pretty rare in cars today. there are only a few i can think of that use it.

Its aimed nicely at the porsche 911 and ferrari 360 price range aswell, cheap as chips i reckon
