Are you sure its a lambo? Few things I noticed..

Exhaust come out the back really high (and 2 sets of 4 tubes)

The rear window, it looks kinda like NXS's w/ a md mount engine. Also whats with that fancy duct work? I don't thing they can put a v12 under it. Possibly V8, remember the exhaust?

Look at the lights. Then look at the lights on the diablo and merc. They just don't look the same. Its almost like a lambo look.

The wing looks like its mounted back all the way (maybe the angle). Most lambo's are mounted that far back. They extend that far back but aren't mounted that close to the rear.

After all this, I have no idea what it is. I don't think its a fake picture. Just maybe faulse advertisment.

it can be downloaded on kazaa.

But i have seen that picture in a magazine ( i dont know the issue or name ) but they say this is supposed to be the next mini diablo.

there is only 2 sets of 2 tubes it is a reflection off the bumber i think

although that is one oddddd spot for the exhaust...and if it was a lambo with a V12 ..that would be sure to deform the bumber in now time..

Hello,

I've received this picture in my mail some time ago, and the sender also asked if this would become the new Lamborghini V10 model ...

I don't think so, this car does actually really looks like something else, way back from the Diablo introduction, remember Gandini's original design being rejected by Chrysler ...

I think this is a Cizeta Morodor, the rear is almost identical, the dual quad exhausts are strange, but hey, the entire Cizeta is actually, with a massive V16 engine.

Take a look at : http://www.lambocars.com/related/cizetai.htm

Kind regards

Mark

Rear windows don't match... nor does the shape of the haunches

It is REALLY familier... I'd say it was a ferrari but the clutch is incorrectly located as well as the exhaust being wrong...

Lambo? or Cizeta?

Gentlemen,

It is a great trivia question with so little visible of the car, not to mention the car has been somewhat customized.

Some of you are correct. It is in fact a Cizeta Moroder. As Sick_Spd pointed out in his doctored image, there are a few differences. This car has been altered somewhat from original. It has different taillights that are a bit smoother than the originals. It has a much taller rear wing that doesn't appear to me to be attractive from this angle, but it is hard to tell. Lastly, (at least visible in this image) the exhaust tips have been changed to show 4 exits per side rather than the original 2 per side.

It is hard to tell, but there should be the original "CHIZETA" label that is usually embossed in the rear deck lid. The light in the image does not lend to detecting if it is still there.

Hope all this helps. It most certainly is not the new baby Lamborghini. All I have been allowed to say is that it will have some visible lineage to the Murcielago.

Secret Lamborghini or Cizeta???

I assure you that the car pictured above is indeed a Cizeta Moroder. The car has indeed been modified as I pointed out in my previous post. The car is licensed in Europe and is used quite regularly although I do not have any recent pictures of the car since it has been modified. You will note the 4 exhaust tips per side. This is not original even for a Cizeta. Also modified is the rear wing. The wing is original, but it has been mounted on extensions that lift it much higher than originally intended and higher than aerodynamically effiecient, I might add. Lastly, the taillight lenses have been replaced by a slightly different cover possibly to add character to the car at the desires of the current owner.

I am very close to Lamborghini and can say plainly that this is not, nor has it ever been a testbed for a Lamborghini car. There are current test cars Lamborghini is testing that are more closely resembling the Murcielago. And, of course, we all know the history of the Cizeta design and how it came to be after the Lamborghini rejection by Chrysler.

The picture attached will show you an original unmolested Cizeta. Of particular note, the rear window and the vents at the base of the rear window are identical, as are the taillight cutouts. On the red car you can clearly see the "CIZETA" name (forgive my misspelling below) molded into the rear decklid. Close inspection of the image of the black car you will notice that barely visible is the vertical component of the "E" in the very center.
