COMPETITION = GROWTH (6 min read)
What if I told you Lamborghini made and sold tractors long before they made super cars ? No really they did or should I say still do to this very day. So what made Ferruccio Lamborghini, the owner of Lamborghini, decide to start manufacturing a super car?
Ferruccio came from a farming family and started producing tractors in 1948, in 1963 he started making luxurious sports cars. He owned a successful tractor company why start making cars? Well Ferruccio Lamborghini had bought a Ferrari, but was unhappy with some of the mechanical working of the car , along with some of the interior finishes. After several frustrating trips to the Ferrari factory to try to solve the problems on his Ferrari. Enzo Anselmo Ferrari, the owner of Ferrari, told Lamborghini that there was nothing wrong with the car and that he was actually the problem.
Well this infuriated and insulted Ferruccio so much he decided that he could build a far better and mechanically superior car than Ferrari ever could, so In 1963 he founded the Lamborghini car company. Lamborghini used top end designers some had even worked for Ferrari at one time. They soon took over the luxury sports car market.
Below is a picture of the 1963 350GTV at its first auto show just four months after starting the endeavour to make cars. They had some hiccups and didn’t have a motor for the car in the show, but it’s reported that the engine compartment was filled with bricks so the car would sit at the right hieght.
