    Well, let's not bother wasting our time guessing until it's actually out.

    Italiaspeed says so as well, and they are reliable when it comes to italian cars.

    Just an SV doesn't really fit with the idea "It's not just a new Lamborghini. It's a new world."

    Now a new Espada (two door, V12 coupe) based on the Audi A8 . . . that's a new world I'd like to own part of.

    It's marketing, they say what they fancy even if what they do doesn't exactly match...

    but the A8 is an aging platform and going to be substituted next year, IIRC.

    Looks like the bonnet is relatively long, judging by the side vent with the Italian flag thing...

    it isn't a Murcielago or a Gallardo. the door is much closer to the front wheel (that seems to be a front wheel) on those models. the bonnet seems long, and quite tall, definitely unlikable for a new Miura, beside the fact that they declared there wouldn't be a new Miura, or even too tall for any kind of sport car, judging by this not very revealing pic. but at the same time, in the left part is too low to be an SUV...
    a saloon?! that would be quite a problem for the upcoming Panamera, but we never heard of such a car from Lamborghini, and at the same time, we are used to know almost everything of upcoming cars.
    basicaly, don't know what it is, but not an update/evolution of the two existing cars.

    Probably the orange and purple Murcielago the interwebz though were the test mules of the new SV were actually the mules for a completely different car

    that tire is huge, 295 as a front tire isn't suitable for a sport car...saloon/crossover coming?


    EDIT: you can see it in the first pic posted by Roentgen, the second posted by Ecnelis seems modified.

    Maybe it's a FR car with a V8/V12 up front? A Grand Tourer, maybe, something more comfortable, a la 599 GTB?

    Well, it seems like the second image has been altered, like the other member said. The Italian flag badge has been changed.

    just thinking...are there any other (sport) car with such a big tire at the front?
    I doubt it. so probably the image was photochopped, and that's why they later changed it.
    if that is the front end though...damn Lambo's boys, at this point I don't know what to think

    I'm leaning to 4-door GT.

    If those images shows real model then front brake discs diameter should be only 300-310 mm.

    Gallardo: 365 mm, Murcielago/Reventon: 380 mm...
