LAMBORGHINI
Automobili Lamborghini S.p.A., or simply Lamborghini, designs,
   engineers, manufactures and distributes Italian luxury sports
    cars. Lamborghini's production facility and headquarters are
located in Sant'Agata Bolognese, Italy. In 2011, Lamborghini's 831
                  employees produced 1,711 vehicles.
      Manufacturing magnate Ferrucccio Lamborgini founded
      Automobili Ferruccio Lamborghini S.p.A. in 1963 with the
  objective of producing a refined grand touring car to compete
    with offerings from established marques such as Ferrari. The
company's first models were released in the mid-1960s and were
   noted for their refinement, power and comfort. Lamborghini
  gained wide acclaim in 1966 for the Miura sports coupé, which
   established rear mid-engine, rear wheel drive as the standard
             layout for high-performance cars of the era.
 Lamborghini grew rapidly during its first decade, but hard times
 befell the company when sales plunged in the wake of the 1973
  worldwide financial downturn and the 1973 oil crisis. The firm's
       ownership changed three times after 1973, including a
  bankruptcy in 1978, before Chrysler Coperationtook control in
   1987. Unable to operate Lamborghini profitably, Chrysler sold
 Lamborghini to Malaysian investment group Mycom Setdco and
 Indonesian group V'Power Corporation in 1994. Lack of success
 continued through the 1990s, until Mycom Setdco and V'Power
    sold Lamborghini to the AUDI AG subsidiary of Volkswagen
 Group on July 27, 1998. Audi's ownership marked the beginning
        of a period of stability and increased productivity for
  Lamborghini. Sales increased nearly tenfold over the course of
the 2000s, peaking with record sales in 2007 and 2008. The world
 financial crisis in the late 2000s negatively affected all luxury car
    makers worldwide, and caused Lamborghini's sales to drop
                            nearly 50 percent.
      Lamborghini's Sant'Agata Bolognese production facility
  produces V12 engines and finished automobiles. Lamborghini's
  current production vehicles are the V10-powered Gallardo and
     the V12-powered Aventador . Both production models are
available in a variety of regular and limited-edition specifications.

The firm's ownership changed three times after 1973, including a bankruptcy in 1978, before Chrysler Coperationtook control in 1987. Unable to operate Lamborghini profitably, Chrysler sold Lamborghini to Malaysian investment group Mycom Setdco and Indonesian group V'Power Corporation in 1994. Lack of success continued through the 1990s, until Mycom Setdco and V'Power sold Lamborghini to the AUDI AG subsidiary of Volkswagen Group on July 27, 1998. Audi's ownership marked the beginning of a period of stability and increased productivity for Lamborghini. Sales increased nearly tenfold over the course of the 2000s, peaking with record sales in 2007 and 2008. The world financial crisis in the late 2000s negatively affected all luxury car makers worldwide, and caused Lamborghini's sales to drop nearly 50 percent. Lamborghini's Sant'Agata Bolognese production facility produces V12 engines and finished automobiles. Lamborghini's current production vehicles are the V10-powered Gallardo and the V12-powered Aventador . Both production models are available in a variety of regular and limited-edition specifications.
