The four-door Lamborghini has finally been revealed at the Paris show (hmm, I haven’t been there in a while; don’t they have blogger passes?), and I can’t decide what I think about it — or even what I think of the very idea of its existence.

I’m not a fan of the front end (the nose kinda points up, like a speedboat, which makes it feel like the front wheels are going to lose grip and the car will flip over when you reach 50mph), and the side view is pretty much all wrong, but there’s still something Lambo-ish about it that’s exciting, and it’s nice to have a super-sedan escape from the norm of bubbly bloat that’s popular with high-end automakers these days.

The bottomline is, I don’t get the appeal of this car class — instead of bringing the best of two worlds, it brings the worst: a sportscar’s low roof and inconveniently small windows, with the performance compromise of a sedan. Wouldn’t you rather have a Gallardo and an M5 in your garage? I’m pretty sure I would.
