Any CGT owners who have owned a Murcielago??

Guys,

Adding a CGT to the collection. I am wondering - how does the ground clearance of the CGT (which of course does not have a lift system) - compare to the stock Murcielago (on regular setting - not raised)?

I just want to guess - in advance - where I can go and where I can't - based on my experience with the Murcie.

Thanks in advance!

I sold the Murci Roadster but it will be hard to get used to not having the lift system. I would say they are about the same height, you will need to remember that the lift system is not there as you are driving the CGT.
Also REMEMBER its a two wheel drive not an all wheel drive. They will spin out, especially if the tires are cold.
Good Luck and Congrats!

DM1,

Please also remind me - does the CGT have some sort of rubbing strip on the underside of the front splitter to take the abuse from the road - for those times when you do get caught on a ramp - or is it like the Murcie - where you start the scrape the paint if you get it wrong!

OH and by the way ......I also got the fastest color!!...........Guards Red!

It has a small 1" rubbing strip on the underside for the front splitter. ..

You'll love it!

DM1 great collection of cars. That Challenge Stradale is beautiful. Let me ask you do you prefer the Lambo or the Ferrari if you had to pick? Just curious.

It's a Bendpak. I need to extend the ramps with some boards to put the CGT on it.

I got the narrow one because I would loose a spot in the garage.... (see picture of garage) The only problem is the Lambo didn't fit on top. I would park it under the lift.
