  1. Two people dead is very sad regardless of the circumstances and in what car they died in... When will they invent crash proof cars already?
  2. Dude... perfect ! Now you and your G will be able to share a tank of Greygoose Redbull..
  3. The brand premium is a very large component in the Gallardo price, too large in my opinion, maybe like 50%... if Lambo give up half of that premium they will become competitive with the 997s and can start selling cars again... otherwise I will have to agree with Roy..
  4. There is no way Lambo will die out... too much brand equity to go away however I do see them cutting back on R@D and possibly closing down many dealerships worldwide... I also anticipate to see the Lambo name on Audi engines and possibly other cars... The Lambos are not such a high techy cars that require that much R@D to begin with, they will stick to the current Gallardo technology for the next 10 years or so... I can see the new Murcie shift UPmarket with more limited production markets while the G will be offered for much more reasonable prices closer to the 997.
  5. RENT and dont forget to rent some nice wheels too... you can also enhance your personal appearance by renting some fine jewlery to go along with your rented Gallardo..
  6. Thanks for the congratulations guys...
  7. Happy birthday man!!! Enjoy your birthday...
  8. Im not gettin an iPhone even if it came with Jessica Simpson's nude photos and her personal phone number programed into contacts...
  9. I saw one today too... just bleh..
  10. I'm not a fan of 2010 Lakers that much but those guys gonna repeat, everytime they win the championship the city is on the verge of Riots, I can't wait to see real riots, hope it's gonna go down like that this year..

    I love this thing, are you kidding me....? Faster then I ever seen windows work by miles and miles... Linux is the Gallardo Turbo of the operating systems..

    You know what? You sold me! Those are all valid reasons, especially that I won't be feeding Gates or Jobs... another good reason for me is that my wife will have to stay away from my Laptop as the new OS will be technologically prohibitive for her..

    Honestly, looks like it's more then I can chew and I don't know if my very small needs are worth the effort... I have both Ubuntu and XP partitioned on one hard drive and I realize that I have to go through those strings of commands to access the files... well, it's a bit much.. I'll play with it a little more but I don't see myself converting to Linux environment any time soon though...

    Locate first then open, I'm talking mostly of picture files.

    So finally I decided to give Linux and it's operating system Ubuntu a shot, I downloaded the whole 700MB of it and now I have both Windows XP and Ubuntu. My question is, how do I access my old windows media files with Ubuntu? I'm sure it's easy but how? Lambo Power appears to have hard time on Ubuntu, it's not running smooth and requires additional plugins, why is that? I really don't know what the fcuk am doing on Linux but it's cool to explore I guess.. Everything else runs much faster then windows
  16. fcuk those printer companies, they are the real thieves here, the way they price their toners and ink cartridges is nothing short of highway robbery.... I think the aunt and uncle are saints, I hope they never stop doing what they do until HP and Panasonic go belly up..
  17. The drifting race is fun to watch, "going balls to the wall" just got a new meaning for me after seeing those guys push so hard going sideways inches from the wall of the track.. Now I'm not known as the biggest aftermarket wheels fan out there but the wheels on Alex's LP are awesome... i fell in love with them when I first saw them some time ago.
  18. oh and one more thing D Wiggs, you might want to talk to Brian Albertson who is listing the car for me, he might have buyers who had interest in my car but either didn't like the color or it was too far for them to travel to Cali to check it out... Brian is in your neck of the woods.. (the no-mans land also known as the Heartland )
  19. Well I'm in the same boat with you, I had my car over 5 years since new, it's very clean and has 8k miles, it's not that I HAVE to sell it but after practically not driving it for couple of years and finally deciding to list it I found out that I'm dealing mostly with people who couldn't afford to dream of a Murcie before the recession, all of a sudden it's within their line of credit limits... They shop for a Murcie like they shopped for their Corvette/Mustang 3 years ago... by low balling the lowest priced cars on the market, nothing else matters to those guys..
  20. That is true, although I don't have any tattoos I do like his work... same story with Von Dutch... Everything that Christian Audigier touches turns into shit.. (and into $$$ for him)..
  21. Dude... this is the sale pitch you should be using... there's only one problem... it doesn't work.. People are not willing to pay a dime for extras, with a 03/04 used Murcie like ours you are threading into the players on a budget territory, those buyers will nickel and dime you for every rock chip let alone stuff that does not belong to the car originally... Those are not the same people who cut a $300k+ check for a brand new Lambo and who MIGHT appreciate good quality mods..
  22. I disagree, Ed Hardy yes but Apple people are totally different species... has nothing to do with douchebaggery, you got it all wrong.. Speaking of Apple and apparel, I saw the other day this guy sitting in Starbucks on his Mac laptop wearing Apple hat and Apple T-shirt.. Apple Fag..
  23. Well maybe the offer was 3 years ago or it was a trade in offer for a full stickerd brand new Pink LP-640 that it's order was canceled... All I can say is I WISH D. Wiggs would sell his car for that much but as a realistic Murcie owner who is in the market selling his car I know it would only happen if he sells the Murcie with $30k cash in the glove box..
