Looks just like the AB Flug S900 body kit for the MKIV Supra from 9 years ago.

That is a BIG 10 - NO, partner. That is unless you are real slanty-eyed and squint when you look at it.

That's one sick lambo for sure. The side intake looks so bonkers, it's awesome.

Actually, the LP700-4 does have opening vents for engine cooling on top behind the side windows just like the Murcielago in addition to the giant side intakes. The difference in the vents on the LP700-4 is that they are hinged at the bottom and open at the top unlike the Murci's vents that are hinged at the top and open at the bottom.

Ah so not much has changed. Have you seen the car in action to be able to say this? I didn't see this in the pics.

I have seen the car, this is true. Side intakes are massive, the upper vents are for cooling. They were not in operation on the show car- do hinge at bottom and swing downward.

Yes, I saw the car in the LA private viewing. The Lamborghini staff memeber at the viewing explained and showed how it works. This is virtually impossible to decipher from photos...

Car was impressive both in engineering and looks. To me, the LP700-4 has a lot of Reventon styling elements.
