  1. Benkei, let me know what you end up doing. I agree the kenwood system sucks. Orion
  2. Got word today from the dealer. Turns out YelloMurci that it is the same problem you had. For some unknown reason the Egear fluid decided to leak onto the manifold. They are going to clean it up and drain a little out, and hopefully that resolves the issue. They also stated that E-Gear fluid is flammable so its a good thing I was close to home and shut it off. I definitely will be keeping a fire extinguisher in the car from now on just in case. Thanks everyone for your replies and comments
  3. No oil recently or anything added to the car. I thought of a small animal as well, but our garage is pretty animal free. I posted some pictures when I first got it back in September of 08 They are in the forums somewhere, I haven't had a chance to take any new ones recently due to the crappy weather we ahve been having in CT this year.
  4. I decided to take the car out on Monday for a nice little ride. Started it up, backed out of the garage and drove 10 feet down my driveway to notice that there was smoke coming from the engine compartment. Whisping smoke tendrils, the type you see from something burning. I immediately turned the engine off, popped the lid and looked for any signs of flames. I couldn't see anything but there was a very strong smell of something burning. This wasn't a mechanical burn smell but of paint burning or plastic burning. Called Lamborghini Roadside Assistance (provided by Hagerty Insurance) and the car was towed to Lamborghini of Long Island. Hopefully I will hear back soon as to what happened or what it could be. It's a 2009 LP640 with 1000 miles on it
  5. Apologies if this is a repost. YouTube Great little video. Orion
  6. Thanks Vroom Truth is everyones tastes are different and that's what makes being a consumer so wonderful. The choice. I personally hate Porka's, I see them everywhere. They don't excite me anymore, haven't since I was 10. The R8 gets almost as much attention as the LP640, and I haven't seen another one on the road since they started selling here in the U.S. The V10 will a custom color, I am thinking Nogaro Blue with Oxygen Silver. Anyway I am happy with the purchase and feel more comfortable parking it everywhere. I think becuase "it's an Audi" I feel more comfortable driving it day to day. I got the dealer to throw in AudiCare so that means I pay nothing out of pocket for 4 years. All maintenance is included. I get to drive a pretty exclusive car daily and not have to worry about miles or maintenance. Pretty good scenario all around in my opinion.
  7. I just picked up an R8 a little under a month ago and I love it. I use it as my daily driver and it was a tough decision between the R8 and G-Car but in the end the R8 won because of its role as a daily driver. I had the dealer throw on some sottozeros and it has been dealing with the snow in here in the NE like a champ. I loved it so much I went it last week and orderd the v10 and will give this to the wife. I still have the LP640, it's nice and warm in the garage with the battery tender hooked up to it. Here are a couple of pictures of the R8.
  8. Go here http://www.yelp.com/biz/house-of-luxuries-anaheim and post your experience on there. Yelp has been getting a lot of press time lately due to people's rating of businesses.
  9. I have been saying for the last 5 months that all the news channels should go off air and they should just play classical music instead. OK so a lot of you would prefer they throw the Spice channel up there instead. My point is that I agree, all the talking heads are sensationalist douche bags.
