Re: Audi's Head Designer will be responsible for Lamborghini too.

Whatever we think about the design. Lamborghini is nowadays selling more cars than ever before.

Still it's not so charming that an exotic 150k car and much cheaper cars from a normal brand have noticable similarities.

They can use the same materials but atleast make the Lamborghini interios more distinctive from the Audi ones.

Aston Martin's interiors look like VW's ones but i didn't saw anyone complaining.

Seriously in the pics you posted i don't see many similarities between Audi A4 and Gallardo.

Re: Audi's Head Designer will be responsible for Lamborghini too.

You see the problem with lambo is that they where always so extreme and exotic.. almost like pagani is today..that some ppl cant stand the fact that some parts..even if they are buttons are shared with audi..

Well, that's true, sadly VW AG hve done a good proper german job with Lambo.
That is, it no longer is that outrageous/wild (loud engine sound) Lambo that it use to be.

Re: Audi's Head Designer will be responsible for Lamborghini too.

Dunckerwolke is the man! He managed to create truly awesome and beaultiful cars w/ out using a lot of lines and fussy details. Kudos to him! De Silva has big shoes to fill..... but he has time to figure it out, fortunately.

You have got to be kididng me the Aston and the Tourag have no similarities what so ever, that comparison is really lame. If you look at the pictures I posted you can hardly dissagree with me when I say that the GAllardo and A4 has more or less the same center console.

Re: Audi's Head Designer will be responsible for Lamborghini too.

Not to mention the steering wheel on the RS4 is almost exactly the same as the lamborghini just with a different logo

especially this one:

Re: Audi's Head Designer will be responsible for Lamborghini too.

I beg to differ with most of you and I will have to go with the Audi fans on this one (Yannis, Audiholic).

Since Audi took over Lamborghini it has been nothing but good for them, in my opinion. I think that if Audi us going to influence any ex-Italian automaker it should be Lamborghini. Why? Well for one Lamborghini is a direct competitor to Ferrari and 2. the Quality that lambo had, as far as reliability is concerned, was nothing in comparison to Audi's.

The Murcielago and the Gallardo are by far major improvements from the old Lambo's. Of course this is all subjective but I am sure you could take a look at the quality control department of Lambo pre-Audi and see a significant (better) difference in the quality control department post-Audi.

To me, I really don't care if I see an audi A4 button on the car. As long as the car is not a direct chassis from the Audi line up (which I would have to give it some thought and see if it would really bother me) it shouldn't matter. Great engines, great exterior designs, and superior interior design is what Lambo, because of Audi, is offering now.
