Ah f**k it. Ive gotta say something. VW OWNS Audi OWNS Lambo. Lamborghini were going bankrupt and VW bailed them out and started with a new slate, there in filling the void in their luxury sport category branch of their automotive tree. Lambo is exotic and VW saw plenty of value in that - its not every day when youre a massive automotive conglomerate rolling in money and suddenly find an opening into one of the most passionate and lucrative automotive sectors...
Modern day Lambos are amongst the top sports cars in the world.
I think its fabulous. You have all the engineering integrity from a German manufacturer mated to the flair and passion of Italian design.
Anyone who thinks Lambo has lost it's soul will be spoken to - Lamborgini is alive and well because of VW.
Also, anyone who thinks they'd take an Audi over a Lambo needs to be checked in. Just the mention of the brand and the decision is made. Audi design is great and all...but...well, Audi is not Lambo, FFS, and will never be. That is why, again, VW bought Lambo.
Having said that, Lamborghini was in F1 will almost no success. Audi on the other hand has already been spoken for. Lamborghini will always be the pick for a street driver but Audi knows more about the track. The thing thats funniest is, they feed off each other so both levels of input go into the car.
The net result? Its a tie..
But i would take the Lambo badge over an Audi badge - EVERY SINGLE TIME.
