Lamborghini’s Bull Kicks Dirt at Porsche and Aston Martin – But Will Rapide and Panamera Wave The White Flag of Surrender?
Lamborghini is on a roll. Since Audi bought the Italian carmaker, things keep getting better. First the Gallardo, a credible sports car that could be driven daily without fear of breaking down or being stranded and now the Estoque. A true 4-door sports car meant to capture a sale or two from the Porsche Panamera and Aston Martin Rapide.
Using the Audi parts bin as a starting point, Lamborghini has taken all its raw aggression and applied it to a sedan capable of transporting four people at speeds far above any posted limit. And while Ferrari has made a very public statement declaring no 4-door sedan, Porsche and Aston Martin are hard at work preparing production versions of the Rapide and Panamera.
And then the bull upset the super sedan pecking order. For I can’t help but think that more than one person currently on a waiting list for either the Aston or Porsche made a phone call to their local Lamborghini dealer in an attempt to transfer a deposit in hopes of owning an Estoque.
So does Lamborghini have a winner on their hands?
