Interesting, and certainly better looking than the Hunchback of Zuffenhausen, the Porsche Panamerica.

Wonder what she's packing under the hood and if it's its own chassis or an Audi A8 derivative?

It certainly looks much better than I would've imagined.

From Autoblog:

Lamborghini states that no official decision has been made regarding production, but did hint that the Estoque could lead to a third model in the lineup with numerous engine possibilities including the V10 from the Gallardo LP560-4, a turbocharged V8, a V8 with a hybrid mode, or even a high-performance TDI.

I think Aston Martin's Rapide still takes the cake though.

The general consensus is the V10 from the LP560-4 is the powerplant and using AWD.

I sort of like the rear, but the rest of it is just plain ugly.

anything is better than the panamera lol. To me this looks like a challenger and a murcielago mixed with another set of doors. What's up with this trend of 4 door super cars?

That's why Lambo looks so familiar. I knew I saw a similar car before.
