Lamborghini Sesto Elemento

Posted in Maisto by r h b on September 30, 2010

some posts just write themselves, others, you just need a visual…

sesto elemento = 6th element. the 6th element: carbon. as in carbon fiber. and it sounds so cool… sesto elemento. like a techno band from the 80s.

just a concept for now. but that is 1 bad ass car. and here is the press release from our friends in Sant’Agata…

New Lamborghini Tease

Posted in Maisto by r h b on September 18, 2010

as seen on various blogs, Lamborghini sent out some photos teasing a new car. hard to say what is fact and what is fiction. the photos are real, that’s for sure…

will it be launched at the Paris Auto Show? is it the long-rumored Murcielago replacement? will it be named Jota? but most importantly, will maisto/bburago be making product for this vehicle?

here are a couple of links, basically asking the questions (well except for that last one that i just through in…)

Motor Authority – Lamborghini Jota

Jalopnik – Lamborghini Jota

GTSpirit.com

we’ll will have to wait and see…

Lamborghini and the Expo 2010 Shanghai

Posted in Maisto by r h b on June 20, 2010

You knew the House of the Raging Bull would want to make an appearance anywhere up to 35 million visitors would be, and so it is that Lamborghini is a major sponsor of the Bologna stand at the Expo going on right now. Featured in the booth – the brand new Gallardo LP 570-4 Superleggera. Check out the photos below, including that of Lamborghini President Stephan Winkelmann (the non-blue one) in the second photo.

Freeway Fotos – Lamborghini Diablo

Posted in Maisto by r h b on June 14, 2010

how was your week-end? mine? oh, thanks for asking. i drove 600 miles this week-end. and i didn’t go anywhere. thanks to a daughter with an active social calendar, a wife and mother-in-law out of the country, nobody to take care of the dogs, i was stuck driving the 210 for the better part of the week-end. at least i had this beautiful, white lamborghini diablo to keep me company for about a minute or 2…

yeah, i know, with all my free time maybe i could clean the rearview mirror? give me a break – i mean you want the fotos or not?

that’s what i thought – you’ll take the fotos however dirty my mirrors and windshields are..

and just like that she was gone. as for me, the wife is coming back tonight, so i get to drive back to lax from san bernardino – another 170 miles roundtrip. anyone need a ride somewhere tomorrow? i got nothing going on so far…

I promised, now I deliver. A few more of the Splash Pages from our 2010 catalog…

Maisto 2010 Catalog: Splash Pages

Posted in Maisto by r h b on February 12, 2010

charlesmaisto has been sharing a bunch of catalog pages for you all to get a quick view of some of the new stuff we are coming out with in 2010. since the catalog is a trade publication only, we thought we would also share some of the splash pages with you so you could get a little more of a feel for what the catalog looks like. the splash page falls in between categories, and is used to intro the next section in the catalog. in a design conscious house such as maisto, the splash page is always an hot issue, and is ultimately decided by the bosses. this year’s design was created by none other than Castro. while under a pretty extreme deadline, Castro went all tracy porter on us and scored big time with this layout. here are a couple of the pages, suitable for framing. we will add a couple more tomorrow…
