Lamborghini Succeeds in Creating World's Most-Difficult-to-Wax Car

By Rain Noe - March 6, 2013

They said it couldn't be done, but Lamborghini has pulled a design coup and successfully created the world's most-difficult-to-wax car. A cleverly arranged array of fins, vents, humps, angles, and even dangerously sharp edges have been designed to stymie even the most dedicated lackey, who simply will not be able to apply Meguiar's and wipe it back off in a reasonable amount of time. Mr. Miyagi's car, this isn't.

That isn't the only benefit conferred by the contorted shape: Should a cinderblock fall onto the car from above and damage the sheet metal, onlookers will likely not be able to tell where the damage occurred, saving the driver money on bodywork.

Early chatter indicated these drawings were fake, but Jalopnik's now fairly certain that the Lamborghini Veneno will debut at this week's Geneva Motor Show. Priced at a reasonable $4.6 million, the Veneno should prove irresistible to young families who need to get around town in a safe, roomy way. And the exterior styling belies a sensible 6.5-liter V12 powerplant, whose 750 horsepower and 220 m.p.h. top speed should be more than enough to get you over to the inlaws in a comfortable manner.

The Veneno will reportedly not come with a glovebox, but instead, a handbasket. Then you can take that handbasket, place the car inside of it, and you can bring it straight with you to Hell.

I think Hyundai's next Elantra Coupe should look like this. Seriously. They already proved that economy cars can succeed with super-aggressive styling. Why not take it a step further?

I think its a bold departure from the norm. Its a Lambo. Its supposed to stand out. People but them to get massive amounts of attention and go ridiculously fast.

Our comments on it's ugliness are irrelevant.
Build it (expensive) and they will buy it.
Three to be made, all already sold.

I'd expect a bit more insight from Core77, perhaps by an engineer or car designer, or opinions on form more evolved than "looks like you can drop a brick on it". Sure its unaffordable by the 99.99%. Supercars have their place in the design pantheon. Face it, supercars probably got at least half of designers into the field, whether they ended up in Trans or not.

I like the part that looks like it's a vent for moving air.

Every single "photo" looks damningly close to a 3d render, so...

This is a disaster. No wonder any one who is any one is tuning there cars for optimal performance instead of buying these monstrosities.
