Wow, that's amazing!!

Stephan Winklemann, President and CEO of Automobili Lamborghini said of the Sesto Elemento, "It is our abilities in carbon-fibre technology that have facilitated such a forward-thinking concept, and we of course also benefit from the undisputed lightweight expertise of Audi AG. Systematic lightweight engineering is crucial for future super sports cars: for the most dynamic performance, as well as for low emissions. We will apply this technological advantage right across our model range. Every future Lamborghini will be touched by the spirit of the Sesto Elemento."

I guess the Jota will have similar design features...here's some more official shots:

Lambo design team manager to subordinate:

"Bet you can't design a car entirely with a ruler..."

I am honestly suprised that the wheels are not shaped like 50c coins

lol

imho it is ugly and will certainly be well overpriced just like everything else the italians make

edit: not to say it's not a nice drive of course... just ugly and italians annoy me :D

Seeing as it's a concept I doubt this will be going into production, it's more an example of what we're likely to see in future models. More to the point, when are they ever going to produce an underpriced Lamborghini? They're not really going for the average-income deomographic...

lol

Steeringwheel is as predicted.

Anyone else noticed the rearview mirrors come out of the middle of the door?

It's a concept car, it's meant to be OTT! It's designed to give you an insight into where they're heading in the future.

I prefer my designs a little more organic, personally...

If they did something about the front end that would be a nice looking car.

That Lambo is ugly... but it is beautiful... although the interior screams of a mid 90's PC game.

Perhaps the Stealth Fighter type styling is so it can avoid "speed" radar guns?

I think it looks wicked!

    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
