Is Audi trying to kill Lamborghini???

[Lamborghini]

At first I was really hyped about this new Lambo code named L140 but now I hear how Audi seems to be messing with it. First off, the L140 platform and I even think the engine is gonna be shared with their new lame RS something car(build yer own supercar Audi, you already make good cars). This is making the new Lambo more less special and more less like a unique and individual supercar that Lambo is known for. Most of the parts are gonna be built in germany with german engineering(not a bad thing but..) it jus seems like the car is going to be less Italian therefore less Lamborghini. And the fact that they are using Audi's engineers and methods for construction make this car a huge turn off. Is Audi trying to hurt the Lamborghini name. The new Lambo to compete with the 360, what a joke. Atleat Ferrari is the one making their own car.

I wish Audi would jus let Lambo make all their own stuff and fund them taking in some of the profit, not making the car and slapping a Lambo badge on it.

New Lambo or 360? 360 please, atleast it is what it is, an all bred Italian supercar not some car that has been whoring around in other countries and that has a sister car.

I hope I am completely wrong

all that youve said its completely true!
in the first years of lamborghini they only made the cars for people who could afford them!
know they are building a lamborghini that will cost $125 000 !
audi is doing that because that way they can get more money out of the cars!
remember that a lamborghini was a very special car at their times!
they are making a car that more people can afford they are building cars in huge numbers and that didnt happened before!
i youst think that lamborghini will end up like alfa romeo or something like that!

The new Audi RSR (which is not lame as you have stated) will only share platforms with the new baby Lambo. This is a cost cutting method, so price will stay in the 360 range. And with Audi helping Lambo, this car will be much better than it was originally intended to be.

sure the costs will be much lower...
but a lambo won´t be "the special car" anymore... :-(
