The Lamborghini Sesto Elemento is loaded with carbon fiber, hence its name |
According to the New York Times the sesto elemento may well hit the production line as the rear-wheel drive borrows its V-10, 570 horsepower engine from the Gallardo.
But what does the Carbon fiber do for the Lambo? It's 800 punds lighter than the Gallardo Coupe. That would propel the bull badge from 0 to 60 mph. in only 2.5 seconds.
Would this hyper modern look work for Lamborghini or is this too extravagant? |
The sixth element, which has a power to weight ratio of only 1horsepower for every 3.85 lbs, was showcased to the public at the Paris Auto Show last month.
So what's your rev or die take on this one? Do you look forward to seeing on the streets or is this showroom material only?

"That would propel the bull badge from 0 to 60 mph. in only 2.5 seconds." ugh. disgusting. lol omg man, that is some sexy numbers. And the design although a little flashy for my taste, is definitly a status symbol. Although i believe some carbon fiber inserts are avble in the celica gts 2000 ish, allowin it (with just exhaust and intake) to beat a stock 2007 vw gti. its all about them carbon fiber inserts!!!
This company has always made exquisite models over the years. But all carbon fiber? Lamborghini never ceases to amaze me with their innovation. If I was the owner of the car, I'd have a bumper sticker on it saying, "Fat People! Stay Away!" Carbon fiber may strong but I doubt it won't take any damage from a lard ass.
Lol... No comment on that one.
