  1. I agree. Just can't get past the way the rear end of the car looks. Hoping it will grow on me.Love the interior and the performance.
  2. Being a present owner of an SV I can tell your first hand you will love the car. It is so much quicker and more responsive than your roadster. You have to be careful and get used to it. The color combo is beautiful. I opted for the sport carbon seats. I have a slim build and on the short side so I fit very comfortably in them.IMO the SV is one of the most beautiful production cars ever built. Can't wait to see how Lambo outdoes themselves with its replacement. Have my down payment ready just in case. All the luck in the world with your new baby. Its stunning.Ricky
  3. 171.........USA...........Black............Big Wing. My car which is presently kept in LI NY.
  4. Car is cold. Needs a good 5 minutes to warm up and then it will run fine. Had a similar problem with my LP640.Factory has no fix.My SV does the same thing when its cold.
  5. Looking at these pics only proves to me LAMBO=Automotive Sculpture at its best.They may not build the fastest or best handling cars because they build street cars. However over the years they make the best looking cars period. That Countach and Diablo still turn heads wherever they go.However the new generation Lambos still handle incredible and are almost as fast as any stock car produced today. Can't wait to see the next generation of cars they will produce.
  6. There is one 15 minutes from my Fla. home at Lambo of Palm Beach. I am going to take a look at it this morning. Unfortunately I thinks it's an E-Gear and I would like a manual tranny in the car with the 2 wheel drive. Car should be a rip to drive.
  7. Thats nice to hear. I thought I was the only one who felt that way. Everytime I look at it it gives me a rush. Can't wait to get back from Fla. so I can give it a real drive!!Having a clear bra and skid plates installed under the front lip while I am away. Getting an urge to get a Balboni with a 6 speed manual. What do you think?
  8. Used to race a 41 Apache and unfortuately I lost a few of my close friends in boat racing. In the late 80's and early 90's canopys were rare. Dip the bow at 100plus and you and in for a treat!!!
  9. Only drove the car for a half hour. Tell you what when I drive it for any prolonged period of time I will let you know. This is my 7th new Lambo since 04 and to be honest with you I have never been uncomfortable in any of the seats.I was a little concerned because I bought the car without seeing it or sitting in it in person. The appearance, ride, comfort,and performance from the initial ride was very satisfying to me. I don't regret purchasing it at all.I must be getting old because on another thread they said the car is slow.The car is anything from being slow at least to me!!!
  10. I just drove my LP670 SV for the first time yesterday and believe me it is not slow. It is much quicker in both acceleration and throttle response to my previous Murcis and LP640.The handling is like day and night compared to my stock LP640. Lambo really did a great job with the existing platform. Comparing my stock 670 to a TT gallardo in acceleration is not a fair comparison. For what the stock 670 is it is quite an upgrade to the previous model. Mine is all black and I love the way it looks. The sport seats are amazing.
  11. Funny I have a child with Downs Syndrome and I didn't think it was that funny. Guess thats what make the world go round.
  12. Yellow is not a good color IMO for that car. Black is still my favorite. Alans black SLR was one of the nicest examples of that car even though it was a coupe.
  13. You are going to love the car. I am on my 4th Murci and they just get better and better. Enjoy it!!!!!
  14. I just doesn't get better than this. Outstanding!!!!!
  15. I would like to see them first in person in gray. If I dont like them I will have them resprayed. I am not sure what color the SV emblem will be. If its light gray I will leave them gray.
  16. I want to thank all of you for your input to help me decide on buying my new car. Purchased a new LP670-4 SV today. Car is still in production and will be completed by the end of the week. Car will be air transported and hope to have it by the middle of the month. Car is black on black with large wing and large SV decal over rear wheel well. Only thing I would of done different is car has gray calipers I would of preferred the yellow ones. Not sure of color of SV decal. Assuming its either white or possibly light gray. Very excited about the car and the painful wait begins. Thanks again guys for all the help in picking out the color and understanding what I was buying.Nice to be back on the site!!!
  17. Looking at these pics you can see why Lamborghini has the market on pure automotive sculpture.They have built some beautiful cars over the years and continue to do so.Just wish their people skills were better!

    Thats Hawt

    Shows you how things change. I my day they were the in thing. Especially on motorcycles.Think I will just pinstripe my LP670 instead!!!!!
  19. Call Rodger Hawley at Orbit Racing in Riviera Beach Fla. About 40 min. from Ft. Laud.. He can remove them and rebuild them for you easily at a very fair fee. I had that discussion with him awhile ago. He builds full race cars from scratch and has an amazing facility to do this kind of work. His # is 561-840-2109. Good luck.
  20. What about renting the Moroso track(has new name) in Palm Beach. I am go there with my Ruf car. Orbit racing rents the track there all the time for the day and a few of us have a lot of fun. Not sure if this suits your needs .If it does you can contact Rodger at 561-840-2109 and I am sure he can point you in the right direction. Good luck. When I grow up I want to be like you. Tell him Dr. H gave you his name.
  21. I am trying to get a car ASAP. I am going to my Fla. home on Thanksgiving and want to have the car there so I can use it on my vacation. I was told only 4 factory cars are available in the US for immed. delivery. Cars will only be shipped to any dealer who has a specific deposit on the car.Was told by dealer VOA credit does not wish to floor plan these cars. Whatever the truth is am very excited and very grateful to be in the position to buy the car.Hope its everything they say it is
  22. Great pics. Thank you for the time and consideration. I am leaning towards black after seeing more pics of both cars.From what I hear it seems to be a similar jump when I went from a standard Gallardo to an SL.I loved driving the SL. Sorry I sold it.I hope the Ceramic brakes on the SV are less sensitive than the ones on my SL.
  23. Thank you for the info. I love the agressive look of the SV. I was considering holding out for the new model in 2012 as I was told when it would change. However I personally have had bad luck with first model runs.
  24. I am leaning to black as my first choice after seeing pics of the car on another website. I believe there is one available.
