LAMBORGHINI

I wanted to share with you about my favorite car and its history. My favorite one is the Lamborghini of 1990, but let`s share about the changes of the models of the company Automobili Lamborghini.

Automobili Lamborghini was founded by ferruccio Lamborghini. During his childhood he felt a special interest in cars, after he was own of luxury automobiles including Alfa Romeos, Lancias Maseratis and a Mercedes Benz. he purchased his first ferrari a 250GT in 1958 and went to own several more. Lamborghini considered the Ferrari too noisy and vough to be proper road cars, likening them to repurposed track cars. Lamborghini decided to persue an automobile manufacturing venture with the goal of bringing to life his vision of a perfect grand tourer.

1963

Ferruccio was unimpressed with the quality of the 350 GTV and ordered a complete redesign for Lamborghini`s first production cars.

1964

120 copies was sold of this model. Despite the favorable press preview of the 350GVT. Ferruccio Lamborghini decided to rework the car for production. The name become official was the production model called 350GVT.

100 copies was sold. the 450GVT featured an upgrated 3.9 litre engine.

As the years passed Lamborghini´s situation became even more dire, the company entered bankrupt in 1978 and the italian courts took control, a year later Raymond Noima and Hurbert Hahne, who were Lamborghini´s German importers were appointed to take over the running of the company.
