LAMBORGHINI FINALY GETS IT! LESS AUDI DNA PLEASE

According to Audi pres Stephan Winkelmann, the magic number for cross pollination between Audi and Lamborghin is 20-percent. "In the future, we will always work together just on the hidden parts – parts that will not touch the DNA of Lamborghini," Winkelmann told Autocar.



If you don't already know, Audi owns Lamborghini which is why they share so many parts and if you're worked on the Gallardo or simply sat inside one of them you'd know that the feel, look and switches in the car are very Audi-esque.

Good move.

That pronouncement by Winkelmann is an attempt to quell criticism that the Gallardo shares too many components with the Audi R8 and that the majority of parts sharing will include unseen components, like electrical, plumbing and other, smaller pieces. "We have a quality benchmark with Audi," Winkelmann said, "[Lamborghini] gets the best and fastest, and Audi gets us the cheapest."
