Supposedly it's had everything from a Porsche flat-6 to a Ferrari V8 and a Lambo V12.

Islero

I. Want. This.

The problem with early Lambos is that they only made 3 each (give or take a few hundred) of most models until the 70s, so finding one is generally an issue. A quick Wiki search brings up a total of 225 units for the Islero. Can't imagine many are still around today, although Hagerty shows their pricing to be right around $100k, so it's not really too bad on price. Parts availability has to be shit, though.

And I'm assuming that he said that tongue-in-cheek. Even so, I almost bit through my tongue.

Helped detail an Espada. Liked it even though it was no Miura.

I sold an old 1973 Bavaria to a board member way back when...I really think BMW was at the top of its styling game with the E9

The Espada may not have the visual appeal of the other lambos, but they sure make all the right noises.

One of my favorite designs. Too bad they rust so badly, and too bad stancers like Jeremy like to fuck them up!

On the Lambo note, Espadas are cool, but the Jarama may be my favorite Lamborghini. The angularity of the design is great, especially in that orange color I posted above.

I dunno if this video was ever posted here...but my jaw hit the floor. I would have liked to have been on the sidelines watching them pass.

Ridiculous.

Here's a video that was posted on the Jalopy Journal a long while back. I can't remember who the narrator is, but it's a bunch of 20 or so year old Hollywood dudes beating the crap out of their GTOs in the 60s(ish). Nuts.
