Re: 2006 Murcielago??

not suspension, the chassis/frame.
in any car development, this is the phase that cost the most.
and believe it or not,
audi have in their pockets a largely aluminium chassis that is currently used to carry a V10 (yes, that V10) and house 4 seats.

loose two seats, turn the chassis around, move engine closer to the centre and what do you have?
their DRC also looks promising on the RS4 but we'll have to see how it deals with larger masses on the RS6 and the self tracking is looking... well, interesting.
I would've liked to have seen an all alimunium A6 as it's not like they don't know how to do it. In the same way, if lamborghini don't pull out an all aluminium or even carbon fibre car, i'd be dissapointed.
