No Japanese content found, but Lamborghini really kicked it into the 21st century when ze Germans took over. They went from a small, disorganized factory in Sant Agata with poor record keeping, to state of the art German efficiency. It's helped immensely, since their production tripled in that time period. Back in the day, if you needed a part or your vehicle history, they actually needed to go into the old filing cabinets to collect the original documents. Add to that the fact that they would use whatever bits and pieces they had lying around and you have a tough time. For example, some late model countach cars had Diablo engines. Not all, just some.
The Germans saved Lamborghini. They allowed the Italians to design a car, while taking on the task of organizing all of the little details.
