Lamborghini Alar 777: A very different Lamborghini mod

Well, the decision if we should write about the Lamborghini Alar 777 wasn't an easy one. By reading this you can already imagine that we wouldn't call it one of our favorites. It represents the old Lamborghini style: too extreme, too much posing. Lamborghini nowadays are different, more for the true sportscar connoisseurs who like to make an understatement and for who the Ferrari is too mainstream. The Lamborghini Alar 777, although new, is old school by all means.

Apparently an Argentinian by the name of Joan Ferci has somehow acquired exclusive rights to build custom Lamborghinis that retain the Italian marque's historic name and feature an official badge of the raging bull on the front end. He's created a pair of models in the past called the Coatl and the Eros GT-1, both based off of the Diablo. The Alar 777 will be the third model produced off of the Diablo platform and debut on March 30th in Buenos Aires. The car will produce over 700 horsepower from the Diablo's V12 motor and reached a claimed top speed of 223 mph.
