Um, jupp..
We have like 50-100 Lambos in total in my country and I am the only one to ever had a Lambo in my city (Gotham) and I got my first one when I was 25.. Imagine the UFO-factor around town when you have a G with testpipes and the second coolest car in town is your friends granddads almost new M5...
Yeah baby! As a friend of mine once said, "drive it like you stole it." Not sure exactly what he meant, but I interpreted as drive it hard and fast. I agree with all of the comments re: fuel. I put 5500 miles on my STS over the last 6 months, and I could not tell you what the price of fule was at any point during that time. I'm guessing around $4.90/gallon, but that's because NYS taxes the sh*t out of fuel. During the post-Sandy fuel lines, I received a nuber of disdainful looks, as if to say "you pig you, how can you drive such a car?" I just smiled.

A few donuts on a slippery surface will not bother the clutch at all.
I know this ^ guy (TurboGallardo) and, for those who don't know him, he is to be held in the high esteem.
Thanks TG. Your opinion is always welcome and respected (even on the rare occassion that we may disagree). I will, almost always, defer to guys like you and Breen for anything car related. Of course, it helps that you guys know Lambos as well, if not better, than anyone else I know.

I just heard a couple of videographers asshole's pucker! That was fun. Where are you in NY?

Video is private.
Any more overheating issues?
The video is now public.
Re: overheating.....who can tell? It only occurs in hot ambient tempertures when the car is pushed. We'll see when I track it in the Spring. The new radiators have been installed.
Re: the clutch comment. First, I never launch (which is one of the worst things for your clutch). Second of all, a couple of donuts is hardly going to stress out the clutch. Finally, I note that there was no tell-tale burning clutch odor, whatsoever, which is the first sign of stress on the clutch. Got home, and gave her a nice two hour wash and dry.

I fall more and more in love with the STS everytime I see one. At first I wasn't the biggest fan of the wing from the side profile but now I am in a full on infatuation stage.
I recently told a buddy that I would choose and STS over and SV. (Blasphemy I know!!!!). Give me the white STS out in Beverly Hills with the yellow calipers repainted to red and a set of bronze wheels...IN LOVE!

According to the U.S. Air Force,”the traditional military definition of a ‘Wingman’ refers to the pattern in which fighter jets fly. There is always a lead aircraft and another which flies off the right wing of and behind the lead. This second pilot is called the ‘Wingman’ because he or she primarily protects the lead by "watching his back."
The wingman's role is to add an element of mutual support. The presence of a wingman makes the flight both offensively and defensively more capable by increasing firepower and situational awareness, permits the attacking of enemies, and increases the ability to employ more dynamic tactics. The primary responsibilities are remaining close to the leader of the aerial formation and warning the leader of any immediate threats at the cost of losing mutual protection. The responsibilities are mutually exclusive; never losing the leader requires attention in front of the wingman, but warning the lead of any aircraft threats means also focusing on the rear. Wingmen needed to protect and react constantly according to the surroundings and movements. There are difficulties in flying under poor visibility and the trying effects on human perception under such conditions, especially considering the danger of being separated from the leader of the formation. Wingmen are expected to remain with the leader, even at the cost of scoring an easy kill. (from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wingman)
I'm happy to be this guy's wing man, any time.

I picked up my SL today from being tinted and clear bra wrap. It looks fantastic. It turned out great. I cant wait to get time to get some good pics of the car. I really liked the "Superleggera" script on the front like the Performante.
BEAUTIFUL!!!!!
Drive it in the best of health!

This year they had a group of Italian cars join the parade on 5th Ave.
Video is shot using Sony Action Cam and edited on Premiere Pro:
This puts me in the mood for BULLFEST! yeah, baby. I hope to see alot of you guys there. Contact Hovik for more info.

Thanks. It's tough to capture good sound with action cameras so I try to find a fitting tune. Some will like it, some won't, but it makes the editing process more fun for me.
It was a great day, and a fun time. Here are some of my favorite photos from the day (the woman with the red shoes is Miss USA. The woman riding with me in my car is America's Next Top Model Mexico winner).

It could have just burst a hose...The radiators are up front, so it's not them...Rad cap could have failed...
If it's just a burst hose, or bad cap, it's not a big deal....That's what happens when you have rapid decompression of 260 deg F water at 15psi.
TurboMike is, as usual, spot-on.

Yes Rob I remember, the Bullfest and ride to MMC. Great day! Can't drive the car until Sept. 1st. IT'S KILLING ME!
Me too. And I love a wing on a Murci. If you have no carbon fibre, then paint it to match the body.

I'd reserve that comment for Vipers and ZR1s. AWD Lambos do not fit that intimidation category IMHO.
You always have to take magazine comments with a grain of salt, but the dimensions, weight and AWD of the Aventador means it will never quite be a great driving car in the sense that these guys are talking about (the 911 GT3 style experience).
It probably is more enjoyable than most at say six, seven, maybe eight tenths because of it's great power and roadholding, but the last two tenths will expose it's shortcomings in heavy braking and transitions, which is something all heavy cars will struggle with.
I thougt the entire article was a joke. I did, however, agree with the Aventador conclusion. I tracked it at Imola in October, and the car is huge, especially once that mass is hauling ass (rhyme intended). Not, at all, a car you want to track. Still, a great touring car, IMO.

No, it's more like I make it.
WOW! Looks like it coming along VERY nicely!
