Sweet.

I have bid and had PPIs on a couple of Lambos here lately and trying to find a decent deal on a Diablo 6.0. For some reason, I think my favorite is the 6.0 which seems to be the least popular model. Maybe I just have bad taste.

Have you driven the Muci, 6.0 and a Diablo. If so, just curious about the differences between the models.

I have not driven the Murci yet. Got to have one (Lambo), just cannot figure out which one to go with and it is hard to get alot of seat time on these things to figure out which one I like best.

John!

Long time no talk my friend. Trust me, in a couple of weeks you'll here me do some fly-by's. Were almost neighbors now, you should stop by some time. I pm'd you my cell phone and address.

Alex,

The wheel centers are brushed with the polished lips. I considered going with black but as soon as I get bored of the silver I'll get the centers redone.

Doug,

I've yet to drive a Diablo. All things considered I'm sure they are great cars but personally I prefer the looks of the Murcielago. I don't know where you're located but if you can get to Lamborghini Beverly Hills talk to Shant and he will definitely hook you up with a test drive of what ever you want. He's one of the best salesman I've ever dealt with - he even flew up to San Jose so I could sign all the paperwork on the car. Call him at (310) 854-7777

Just wanted to say that Robert is not your stereo-typical high-end Italian car owner. Far from it. He's as excited to show his friends the car as he is to own it I can't wait till you get her back man... We'll have to throw a meet or something...

Thanks for the info. I am a long ways (Memphis, Tennessee) from you guys and live in the po-dunks with very little access to Lambos and Ferraris. I flew up to St. Louis recently and drove a few cars at Motor Cars International.

Ended up with a steal of a deal on a 355 spider, but am still getting a Lambo this summer. Probably going back up to drive a Murci next weekend if I cannot get a deal worked on a VT 6.0 that I like. I do like the Murci better from the back end, but I like the way the 6.0 looks head on from the front end. I also like the carbon interior on the 6.0. Both are awesome and I can maybe save a few $$$ with a 6.0.

Enjoy your car.
