Lamborghini is german controlled these days. Apart from that, I found the colour of the Geneva 640 showcar anything but impressive.

i thought that lamborghini themselves still made the engine and transmissions themselves, how much does the german ownership actually affect the reliability? i would have guessed that all the electronics in the modern lambo's are far better, but i wouldn't know for sure

Neither would I, but taking into account that Ferrari is Italian controlled and that Italian electronics in general are still somewhat behind in terms of quality compared to German electronics (although Mercedes has proven that this is not always the case), I assume that Lambo would like to follow the german rather than the Italian examplei thought that lamborghini themselves still made the engine and transmissions themselves, how much does the german ownership actually affect the reliability? i would have guessed that all the electronics in the modern lambo's are far better, but i wouldn't know for sure

The German (or, more specifically, VW) ownership means much tighter engine durability regulations. I'm not sure about the Lambo, but the Veyron had to go through, and pass, the same tests as a Golf and indeed, any other car in the VAG group.
Although supercar engines are obviously far more likely to randomly go bang than a turbo diesel, I think it's safe to say they're much, MUCH better than they used to be. That and as Henk pointed out, the electronics will be sturdier, thanks to mass production and more money for development.

Some of the older cars have more mystique and naturally more 'history' but the BEST has got to be a late model car.
My vote goes to the ENZO.
