Thx again
Vbox will happen but I'm still breaking her in
Will do it around 10000km.
The silver badge I was talking about is the one that goes on the hood. It's a custom made in real silver actually. This company was referred to me by another member here and they did a great job (it's not cheap though): http://www.motorheadjewelry.com/
Looks awesome in orange.
How much for the silver badge, you have it on the LP640 as well, yes? Is it all the same size?

Donatella and MnM, what year are your LP640s?
Late 2008 for me

You can "trick" the vents into staying open by turning off the main battery switch in the engine compartment while the car is running, just be careful if you do leave them open as some people on the board have experienced the piece that holds them open are fragile. If you do a search there is a thread from a while back which goes into more detail on the "batwings"
As far as the trani if it's E gear just takes a little practice to get the right amount of throttle application when starting on a hill. Better to get it to engage faster cause its very easy to smoke a clutch if your too gentle.
Well I don't really want to trick them to staying open permanently, just that it would be neat if they could open on demand when the car was on the move. I thought that was what the button was for, although it doesn't seem to work as I would have liked.
For the E-gear - I'm pretty sure it's just this car, it lurches, on the slope (happens maybe once every 4-5 times). I've never had it happen on my 360 / 430 / G cars before, and also all e-gear/f1 transmission though. Pretty sucky.
And of course, there are no electronic seats, which suck too. Haha. I'm sure all the purists will tell me to get a toyota instead.

The air vents open at a certain temperature to allow more air flow to cool the engine. When you hit the button to open them when stopped, and then start moving, then close at about 5 mph.
Which transmission do you have???
I have the e-gear. If the vents close at about 5mph, what's the point of the button though? Presumably it doesn't work when it is on the move?

Hey guys
picked up my 640 a couple of weeks back, was wondering if anybody else had the same issues -
1) the button to 'open' the air vents is a little buggy? Sometimes it opens up, sometimes it doesn't, when I try to open it manually with the button, it opens up only if the car is not moving (doesn't open when car is moving), but it folds right back in when the car starts to move.
2)
Also, the first gear - I read about this , don't know if anybody managed to find a solution? - especially when the car is on an incline, the 1st gear is very jerky, for lack of a better word. Doesn't happen all the time though, maybe once every 4-5 times the car is moving off from a dead stop, on a slope.
Anybody with any similar issues or solutions, would be cool to hear from you guys!

Maybach definitely. No contest.

It's gotta be pearl yellow for me. Is that pearl yellow? And solid orange, yah?

Apparently the word is that after the 550-2 VB limited edition, they will go ahead with a standard 550-2 edition.
Wonder what THAT will do to the 560s and 550-2s. Looks like they are going all out to sell as many cars as they can with not too much regard for the consumer.
