Broken Dreams: Baby Lamborghini. The Spark of Rebirth

Lamborghini’s determination to survive even in the most difficult years can clearly be seen in two important projects, the P140 and the Calà. When the company was absorbed by Chrysler in the late 80s, Lee Iacocca himself asked for a mid-range model to accompany the now-ready Diablo. The completely in-house project was designed by Marcello Gandini, who penned a mid-engined, targa-top sports car with a removable roof, powered by a beautiful 10-cylinder engine.
