Don't know if it's been covered yet, but that is a Cizeta Moroder, NOT a Lambo.
Interestingly though, the Moroder was based on an early Marcello Gandini design for the Countach replacement, which was abandoned (heavily modified) by Chrysler's design team when they bought Lamborghini part way through the planning stage of what eventually became the Diablo.
It has a transverse V16 in it, with the transaxle essentially between 2 V8s. One of the strangest drivetrain designs I've ever come across.
...So you were close.
