With the Flying Star II Carrozzeria Touring, desperately starving for commissions at the time, tried to arouse the interest of Lamborghini. The car had an aluminum V12 engine, 5 speed transmission, fully independent suspension and disc brakes all around. Unfortunately, its large size for a two-seater, angular lines, and controversial roof design made it look like a station wagon. Lamborghini decided to stay with its current 350GT/400GT models. This would be the last design to come out of Carrozzeria Touring before the company closed its doors.
