I think we see a facelift in 2016 at the earliest, Lambo has historically used 10 year life cycles with mid cycle refreshes. Keep in mind, Murci production halted at ~4000 units as a result of demand, not a cap. With demand high for the Aventador, common sense business practice would be to order more molds for the carbon monocoque not start over RD building an all new model. Not to mention, efficiency has increased in production since they started building them in 2011 as a 2012 model year car. There is no way they just stop at 4000. VAG and Audi are all about profits, if customers want Lambo's mainstream models they'll keep them coming. Rumor circulating a few dealerships is that the refresh may incorporate a dual clutch transmission from what I've been told. Many Aventador owners own other super cars and apparently customer feedback has been strong on the ISR being mediocre at best compared to the dual clutch technology that is now the super car standard. Cost to refresh the appearance, uptick the power and add a dual clutch is nominal compared to the RD of developing an all new model and engine if demand is still present for the existing. There is no reason to believe that the Aventador will have a depreciation curve dissimilar to the Murci over time.

Thank you Fortis. I've been a participant on Lamborghini Talk for years and some friends of mine have been encouraging me to check out Lambo Power claiming there's less "dreamers" and more "players" here. No disrespect to those aspiring owners, we all start out there, but Lamborghini Talk does get a healthy share of "How much do I have to make to afford a Lambo" threads. In browsing Lambo Power for the past few days on vacation in St. Maarten I've noticed the disparity in the level of threads between the two forums. I look forward to participating on the forum. Thank you for sharing the build deck, I had a friend send it to me shortly before I left the country and have not scanned through it thoroughly prior to leaving other than noticing the exterior color costs. My dealership said that Lamborghini has not authorized the release of that packet yet surprisingly, so they have not shared out of fear of consequences of Lamborghini penalizing them with build slots. Yet, customers are ordering cars by now so they most have something to view. Who knows...something sounds like it was miscommunicated to them or to me. Thank you for attaching Fortis.

Love your STS with those HRE's! I've got number 123/150, every option including the CCB's. I've got a LNB exhaust on it now and absolutely love the sound. My new Huracan stock exhaust is going to be so weak by comparison.

Wow, that would be a unveil soon for the Spyder if those dates are accurate. The master tech at my dealership is in Italy now with the Huracan's and will be back late May. I'll see if he has any updates regarding the Spyder. Lambo Newport Beach commented to me that they believe the Spyder variant is already finished. All speculation. Regarding builds, I'm tempted to go with Grigio Titans or Nero Nemesis, with orange calipers as an accent, but the matte color options are quite a premium. My only drawback to doing Rosso Mars is that my STS is that color and I wouldn't mind having something different with this one. My dealership advised ordering with all the electronic technology such as the suspension and steering. I'm still yet to see an official spec/option sheet from them at this point. I personally prefer the lightweight wheels but would prefer the camera without the parking sensors if that's doable.

Hard top of some type seems like a safe assumption, but any chance you all think it could be removable panels like the Aventador Roadster? I've got a coupe and spyder build slot, but I'm hoping the spyder concept gets unveiled prior to my coupe build needing to be spec'd. I'm guessing we won't see the concept until Sept 2015 at the earliest. _____________________________ 2012 LP570-4 Super Trofeo Stradale
