Vehicle Overview
The Lamborghini 350 GTS, a convertible variant of the 350 GT, was unveiled at the 1965 Turin Auto Show. Designed and built by Carrozzeria Touring, the 350 GTS, also known as the 350 GT Spyder, closely followed the design lines of its coupe counterpart. Only two units were ever produced. The first car, finished in black, was displayed at the Touring stand, while the second, painted in a yellow/gold hue, was showcased on the Lamborghini stand. The modifications from the original 350 GT to the 350 GTS were relatively minor but significant. The most notable change was the removal of the roof to create the convertible design. Consequently, the windows were adjusted, and the trunk was redesigned to accommodate the top. Additionally, the dashboard and central console in the GTS were slightly altered, resulting in an even more refined appearance compared to the GT version. Touring also designed a hardtop for the 350 GTS, anticipating that the model might enter limited production. However, due to the difficult period Touring was experiencing, production did not extend beyond the two prototype cars. Furthermore, Ferruccio Lamborghini had a distinct vision for his cars, preferring to focus on creating quiet, all-weather vehicles with top performance. He believed that a convertible did not fit this vision. Ferruccio Lamborghini’s aversion to convertibles also prevented the production of the Lamborghini Miura Roadster later on. It wasn’t until 1976 that Lamborghini produced a commercially available convertible, the Lamborghini Silhouette, long after Ferruccio had left the company. Thus, the 350 GTS remains a rare and fascinating chapter in Lamborghini’s history, representing a brief exploration into the convertible market that was ultimately cut short due to Ferruccio’s preferences and Touring’s financial struggles. These two unique cars stand as a testament to what might have been had circumstances been different.
