the old v8 lambos were weird as hell

not very fast by today's standards, but cool just for their strangeness

Also, looks like Misato's car from Evangelion (tho that was a Renault)

Unlike flat-plane V8s from rival Ferrari, a Lamborghini Jalpa’s aluminum alloy motor uses a conventional 90-degree cross-plane crankshaft. That’s why it retains that signature rumble loved by fans of American muscle cars. However, it was also fairly small at 3.5-liters of displacement. For that reason, it has a more upbeat tempo and rev-happy nature, combined with the classic V8 soundtrack.
