The ordering guide is a potoshop. The new Lambo will not be called LP700-4 but will have a name as all others. The logo is taken from the Gallardo LP570-4 Spyder Performance. And with all the CF used, I do not think it will wieght 1575 kg, 10 more than the Murcielago LP670-4 SV.

No, actually this will be the first official production Lamborghini to use the Haldex AWD and while it's basically doing the same thing as it does in a Golf R it's actually working from the opposite end, meaning it's mounted in the rear and only shifting power/torque to the front when necessary.

As a system it's very very good. But you'll find out soon enough.

That's interesting. I'm definitely excited to see how it performs.

Footie, any more infos on this new Lambo? For me it is the most exciting car to come, eventhough I am very interested in MP4-12C and M5 F10. 1M E82 is a FAIL (engine wise).
Also do you know anything about the new 911 (991)? Engines? Design? Seems it is going to be the best 911 ever, what unfortunately is not goingto be the case of the next M3 F32.

Quite right, if anything I think the F32 M3 should be leaps and bounds better executed than the 1M, after all it will get the full R&D funding that the 1M won't have and countless more hours fine tuning. Not to say there's anything wrong with the 1M but even BMW see it as a rushed job.

Though EVO's Chris Harris thinks it's peachy so it must be great.

I know only as much as the rest of you do, even Haldex are tight lipped on what the setup is. Probably an evolution of the Veyron's system but that's just a guess.

As for the new 991, that easy.

Q: Design changes?
A: What??? Have they renamed the same car AGAIN?

Get my drifted.

Q: Engines?
A: Same as before but more efficient and more powerful.

Q: Interior?
A: Think Panamera.

In a nutshell.
Tricky to spot from the outside what is different but once behind the wheel everything will become clearer.
