Lamborghini in Paris: Another piece of the puzzle

Lamborghini is teasing us again with the vehicle it plans to unveil at the Paris motor show on Oct. 1.
On Friday the Italian automaker released a second photo of a part of the car--this time, it's the left front wheel. And we see that it wears Pirelli PZero tires and sports the red, white and green colors from the Italian flag on a vent in the front quarter panel.
And we get this headline: "Not yet seen THE Italian car?"
This comes a day after Ferrari gave the new California GT the full introduction party in Maranello, Italy--an event is broadcast around the world via the Internet. The California GT will also make its auto show debut in Paris.
We're thinking this car is a sedan that will take on the Porsche Panamera and Aston-Martin Rapide--the first sedan in Lamborghini history. Also, it looks like this Lamborghini will have its engine mounted up front--which hasn't happened since the LM002 SUV.
We'll keep collecting pieces of the puzzle until then.
