notice how Lambo mounts the gearbox in front of the engine, it is a neat trick they designed for the Muira.
This way all the wt is kept between the axles in a central location, it also helps keep exterior dimensions to a minimum (huge V12).
I think they use a complex twin-shaft design w/a bunch of bearings...one to the trans, the other back through the engine to the tires.
Lambos have high drivetrain loss of ~20% instead of the usual 15%.

I don't like how the top can't stay up past 100mph, and I don't like how much extra weight through bracing etc is added to the vehicle. The price jump doesn't justify the addition of the rag top, but that's just me. Personally I really like how the hard top looks, and if I saw one in that dark grey color I think I would have hyperventalate and pass out.

I agree with what you say and I am a diehard hardtop coupe guy. On the other side of the coin people who have the big bucks and like the wind blowing through their toupee's don't care about practicality, price justification or anything else. They will buy this Bull!
