What are your thoughts on how the matte black looks vs white vs the pearl orange?

In complete honesty, I thought that the Matte black was monstrous.. it looked really intimidating, and suits the shape of the car, but when I got close to it, I saw finger prints all around the car printed on the paint.. This paint looks great, but in reality, the amount of cleaning will be almost impossible outside the showroom.. the Lamborghini salesman was saying that they give you a special product to clean it, but he also said that as soon as you drive the car outside, you will collect dust almost immediately, The white one was nice but not impressive.. It's like it being tamed.. I have seen the Arancio Argos (Orange) in Geneva (They didn't bring it to Frankfurt), too flashy for my taste, as a polish friend calls it "Disco Boy" color hahahaha..I am very conservative when it comes to car paint colors, I like the black, dark gray, gray, and silver shades.. you pull off the suit when heading to a reception, and pull off baseball cap and shorts when heading for golfing.. that's my take, and that's why I choose the Grigio Estoque for mine..

hehehe good one, last week I asked for some updates from the local dealer, and they gave me bad news that I might need to wait one or maybe two more months more because of some delays that happened in the factory, of course I was furious, and told them this is unacceptable, so they gave me this invitation for the Frankfurt show to come and talk to Lamborghini.. I spoke to the managers there in the show, and in front of the Lamborghini Vienna representative, they said that as of today, there will be no difference in the initial promised delivery date, and I will get it next April like what we agreed on.. maybe end of April if things were really bad..

I am sure glad to hear that.. I left the show with a nice buzz from the Champagne, and a big smile I will be getting the car as promised.. and above that, I will be test driving the Avy next week here in Vienna.. I am looking forward for that experience..

Thank you very much for the rep points, I try doing what I do by helping and reviewing because I love it, and try to make my fellow super car enthuse informative because I can not tell you how much people here helped me.. Thank you for the points, it is very kind of you..

Enjoy the show, many many cars to see, the Jaguar was very nice, but in honesty, I found it less striking than the pictures, vice versa with the Trofeo Stradale for instance, pictures didn't do it justice.. This is my two cents..

Enjoy the show and drink lots of champagne hahaha
