this looks a lot like a countach, (sorry if that's the wrong spelling) the holes on the tops? turn em into scoops, lower the decklid so u can see out the rear window (welllll kinda) and make the sideskirts go out, and the rims, i think its the countach concept

American = Displacement
Italian = Exotica
German = Refinement
French = Elegance

Every country has a different way of showing it, if you dont understand it at least try and respect it.

Yeah man, think you're right. Put a rear wing on that thing and you practicly got the Countach. But the Countach is much longer I think.

I agree. That looks like it could be one of the old countachs but then again we'll just let Lamborghini decide that.

How can you say it has the Diablo's wheeels - wouldent it be the other
way around? Because these rims are Lambo's TRADEMARK. If the guys ever
changed them, plenty-0-people wouldn't be happy... Well, anyways, the
Lamborghini Bravo concept was origanally based on the Urraco. And this design led to the 1978 Sibilo. But Bravo really didnt have much to do with countach. the Countach was based on the Muira's evolution
in the 1960's.

I'd like to share a revelation that I've had, during my time here. It came to me when I tried to classify your species;I realized that you're not actually mammals. See; every mammal on this planet instinctively develops a natural equilibrium with the surrounding environment, but you humans do not. You move to an area, and you multiply, and multiply, until every natural resource is consumed! The only way you can survive is to spread to another area. There is another organism on this planet that follows the same pattern... A virus. Human beings are a disease, a cancer of this planet, you are a plague, and we are the cure.

More and better Bravo pics here:
http://www.lambocars.com/framed/others/bravoi.htm

The Bravo was intended and extensively road- and track-tested to become a less-unaffordable "little brother" to the big, pricey V12 Countach. Marcello Gandini, the original designer of the Countach (then working on Bertone's behalf for Lamborghini), intentionally designed the Bravo to have a "family resemblance" to his original, "sano" Countach design (before all that cr@p got added to it over the years, like those clumsy scoops and that ridiculously unnecessary rear wing... %^).

Based on a shortened chassis and V8 drivetrain from the Urocco, they eventually decided not to produce the Bravo, instead favoring the simpler (and cheaper!) alternative of simply modifying the Urocco to become the Silhouette and later Jalpa (both basically a Urocco with no back seats and different upper-rear bodywork). If you've ever stood next to a Countach, you'll recall that its size and proportions are a lot tighter than pictures alone might lead one to think, so you can guess how much smaller (albeit a bit taller) the "baby brother" Bravo would have been -- roughly Fiero-sized, but with a Lambo V8 in back (can you say, "power-to-weight ratio"? %^)!

Which reminds me, I've seen a car around Tucson here that looks like it might be a Fiero spaceframe (something about the size and side-window/door proportions...) wearing bright-yellow replacement body panels based on the Bravo (esp. those front and rear louvers...)

Just my buck two-eighty...

Good post boy. Bravo!...

I'd like to share a revelation that I've had, during my time here. It came to me when I tried to classify your species;I realized that you're not actually mammals. See; every mammal on this planet instinctively develops a natural equilibrium with the surrounding environment, but you humans do not. You move to an area, and you multiply, and multiply, until every natural resource is consumed! The only way you can survive is to spread to another area. There is another organism on this planet that follows the same pattern... A virus. Human beings are a disease, a cancer of this planet, you are a plague, and we are the cure.

The Countach took its design off this concept. (I think)
