What's next...a Bugatti SUV?
This is getting a bit ridiculous...

VW should try upgrading the Allroad and giving it some better marketing rather than ruining the true sports nameplates such as Porsche and Lamborghini.

I like the original V12 Lambo SUV better.
The LM002.

I bet this one is based on the Cayene/Toareg chassis.

They're just jumping the bandwagon very much like restaurants jumping the Atkin's diet. SUVs' are great sellers. Ferrari SUV?

It's hideous. I like the original Lambo SUV too, and always thought that was a huge risk, but this is just stupidity. They'll try to make this luxurious AND try to market it as a real performer, however SUV's aren't normally performers, and lambos aren't focused on luxury. Just another huge identity crisis.

The first Lambo SUV was originally build for the Saudi Arabian army. I wouldn't be too surprised if the Sultan ordered a new set of wheels for his army.

This SUV is a bad idea in the making =P kinda reminds me of an ugly love child between a Cayenne and an Aztec

So instead of building another car, they choose to build ANOTHER SUV. Lamborghini was overtaken by Ferrari as my favorite sports car company recently. This will make Porsche pass them too.

Ferrari has
360
CS
456 GT (whatever's left)
575 Maranello
575 Scagaletti
Enzo

Lamborghini
Murchialago
Gallardo (which JUST came out)

Make another CAR dang it!!!
