When the Lamborghini Veneno (http://www.autoblog.com/tag/veneno|lamborghini+veneno/) was introduced at the Geneva Motor Show (http://www.autoblog.com/geneva-motor-show/), there were those who connected dots from it to the Lamborghini (http://www.autoblog.com/lamborghini/) Pregunta concept from 1998, and also to the Pagani Zonda (http://www.autoblog.com/tag/zonda|pagani+zonda/) that arrived one year later. Near the end of the turmoil that was Lamborghini's ownership through the mid-nineties, an order was placed with the French Carrosserie Heuliez for a one-off concept car that was "new, original and impossible to confuse with any other car's shapes," that would be built on a Diablo chassis. The result was the Pregunta.
It was an aerospace-influenced supercar with carbon fiber bodywork, a 530-horsepower V12 and a claimed 207-mile-per-hour top speed. It employed rear-wheel drive instead of the Diablo's all-wheel drive, was coated in the same paint used on the French military's Dassault Rafale fighter jet and had fiber optic lighting, rear-view cameras and a GPS system. It was shown to the world at the 1998 Paris Motor Show (http://www.autoblog.com/paris-motor-show/), and again at the 1999 Geneva Motor Show.
Thought to be the last concept built on a Lamborghini body before Audi (http://autoblog.com/audi/) bought the company in 1998, AutoDrome, a French specialist in vintage exotics, has the Pregunta for sale for 1.6 million euros ($2.1M US). You can watch it hit the runway with a Rafale in the video below (http://www.motorgen.com/2013/04/12/lamborghini-pregunta-paris-concept-offered-at-2-1m-w-video/#continued), then give AutoDrome a call if you're interested.Continue reading Lamborghini Pregunta Paris concept offered at $2.1M [w/video] (http://www.autoblog.com/2013/04/14/lamborghini-pregunta-paris-concept-offered-at-2-1m-w-video/)
