ROTFLMAO!!!!!!

Oh, thank you! I really needed a good laugh today! Thank you! :laughg:

LOL! Ok, so maybe the VW logic doesn't work, but Lambo IS supposedly more reliable nowadays.

By the way, here are some specs:

$700k price tag
6.5 liter v-12
700 hp
7 speed manual
AWD
0-100 km/h estimated at 3.3 seconds

Would be sweet getting one of those engines in a VX!!! Can you say LamboCROSS?!? (Remember the Jerrari?)

I think a turbine-electric setup with drive motors at each corner would be the ultimate VX retrofit. Call me crazy.

The Miura uses a transverse mounted engine. Look closely at the engine photo I posted and you can see the differential and where the half-shafts mount. Plus, it's a really BIG pig of an engine.

I wouldn't call it a pig, by any means! It's less than 2x the displacement of our block and generates more than 3x the power output! Seems pretty efficient to me, if a bit hefty! In any case, more of a juggernaut than a porker!

You don't need it in a VX, look at Lambo's upcomming SUV. Squint just a bit, an' you got your wish....on a larger scale I'm sure.
