I love how funky the Lamborghini Jarama is—and I love that it doesn’t look like any other Lamborghini. Designed by Gandini, It had cartoonish looks: dintinctly conventional looking body panels set to a bizarrely low-slung, frankenstein set of proportions. All in all, i think this may be one of the most underappreciated Lamborghinis ever made—along with my personal favourite: the Islero

My personal 2nd favorite Lamborghini . Number One for me being the one I drove for almost six months back in the day on loan from a friend . The Lamborghini Espada
I love the Espada as well, of course…..so what did you think of the driving experience of the Espada?
The Espada . Well it wasn’t quite as refined as my ride at the time ( 365 GTC/4 ) but in some ways it was almost more fun . It felt bigger and more ungainly yet the beast pretty much did what you told it to . Driving it around town the motor would put up a fuss ( even more than the 365 ) but once you stretched its legs .. you were off and running . Didn’t handle as well as the 365 in the Mt twisties either . But … it still was a real hoot to mess about in . I’d almost bought one instead of the 365 , but seeing as how well I did when recently selling the 365 vs the current prices of Espada’s ….. well maybe not the most eclectic and original of choices … but the right one in the long run ( Syed I promise you you’d break down in tears if I told you how little I paid for the 365 back in the day …… being a GearHead today has become out of reach for far too many young guys IMHO )
do you currently have any other rides aside from the Merc?
interesting comparison, 365 vs. Espada!
