pilone is just really nicepilone is just really nicepilone is just really nicepilone is just really nicepilone is just really nice
My GOD..No one voted for the 997 TT! That's a real problem for you my friend...more than a month ago I visited Sant' Agata and I saw several Gs on the way...they ride the street like a king!
I saw a TT too, back this summer, and in some way it scared me more than a G.

Anyway my friend...if you prefer the exotic look of the G and its " I'm a star " look...you know the answer.
If you'd like to use a car much more easily every day and without stressing your self too much while taking care of it...simply take the TT! Plus it's a rocket.

I'm not able to say which one I like the best. Too hard...That was my suggestion for you

The gallardo is definentaly more of a looker car, it looks so exotic on the road. And in my opinion, the black/black with yellow stitching combo is perfect.

I'd get the orange one w/black leather, orange stitching, black top, or it'd be gray w/blood-red leather, black stitching, maroon top.

If you can honestly afford the G and you don't feel like your overextending yourself...then the choice is obvious...G all the way. I hear what your saying about the reliability issue. It scares me too. I blew up an egear tranny on an 04. provided for a nice smoke show, but don'yt let that desuade you. It's an impressive car and worth the money IMO.

Gallardo all the way, assuming it is not a DD. If you need any practicality forget it, have you seen the "trunk?" It sounds awesome and is essentially an audi internally...I have seen a couple problems with the automatic top, but that's it. With the nose raised up I scraped less then with my TT. I don't own a G but have spent a bunch of time driving them around LA. It's alot of fun with serious wow factor, but does not have the roominess or visability of a TT, and is just not as comfortable, particularly if you are tall. That being said, as a 2nd or 3rd car, I'd pick the G all day long.
