Over the past week or so, we’ve shared with you the few glimpses we’d been given of the Lamborghini Estoque: a front-engined four-door supercar. Those things seem to be all the rage right now.
Lamborghini wasn’t intending to show us all the full car until the Paris Motor Show, but a French website has gotten its hands on photos of the whole pie and opted to make the most of it.
Aside from the LP640/Reventon-like front intakes, the Estoque signals a massive departure from the Lamborghini design language of the last decade. Smooth flowing curves replace the typical Lambo ‘wedge’, perhaps with the intention of making it more family-friendly (if you’ve got an oil well and rug-rats).
Aggressive, narrow headlights and those huge intakes reveal the car’s intentions however, as it is expected to be powered by the Gallardo LP560-4’s 417kW V10 engine and all-wheel-drive system.
Despite its concept status, the Estoque is rumoured to be planned for production in 2010 to compete with Porsche and Aston Martin’s upcoming Panamera and Rapide four-door cars.
Keep an eye out for this one at Paris.

FREAKIN’ AWESOME!!!
Horrid.
As expected it’s a stunner, although it looks like it’s at least 6 metres long. Any ideas of how long it actually is? 23’s at the rear. Nice.
Wicked profile and rear end. Roof line is great too. If only the front end was as cool. Lacks the drama of the Reventon and looks a little messy and tacked on. Headlights are pretty awful too. Still a minor rework on the front with new lights, and with that side and rear design, this thing will look white hot on the road!
