About the Lamborghini Jarama
Introduced at the 1970 Geneva Motor Show, the Jarama was the final evolution of Lamborghini's front-engined V12 grand tourers. Designed by Marcello Gandini at Bertone, its angular 'origami' styling was built on a shortened version of the Espada chassis to meet new US safety regulations. While often overshadowed by the Miura, Ferruccio Lamborghini famously cited the Jarama as his favourite model for its perfect balance between supercar performance and GT practicality. It features unique 'eyelid' headlamp covers that retract downwards and a luxurious 2+2 cabin that remains one of the most distinctive of the era.

Rarity is a collectible game mechanic, not an assessment of real-world scarcity or value.
Lamborghini Jarama fun facts
- The car was named after the Jarama river region in Spain, famous for breeding fighting bulls, rather than the Jarama motor racing circuit.
- The Jarama 400 GT uses the same magnesium alloy centre-lock wheels found on the legendary Lamborghini Miura.
- The radio is mounted in a highly unusual position: vertically in the centre console, facing upwards between the front seats.
