  1. I am 6'5" and have had 2 Gallardo Coupes and a 640 Roadster now. I have driven everything. I cannot fit comfortably in an LP570 with the racing seats or a Spyder with the roof up. It really depends how your height is distributed between your legs and torso. If your legs are longer it is easier. The Gallardo coupe is probably your best bet and some seat modification is possible. Bear in mind that you will fit more comfortably driving the car than you will sitting in it in a showroom. When you get out and make the car move, use the controls, and end up slouching in the seat it will feel better.
  2. Very cool car. Custom turbo system, 500 whp. Great guy. Yes we did. Great performing car. We drove all of the Gallardo variants - 550, 560, and 570. Great lineup of cars. My pleasure. We had a great time. It was awesome searching the #lambo and #lamborghini tag as we made progress along the turnpike and 75 to see the pictures that other people were posting of the convoy.
  3. I took a group of about 25 down from Atlanta to the event and everyone had a really good time. About 8 of us drove down and I really enjoyed putting about 1500 miles on the 640. Great Lambo Road Trip! Here are some pictures from the drive down and the event. Esperienza Trip
  4. Careful. There is a car out there that meets those specifications and has a bit of a story.
  5. Congrats Dave. Great to have you in a Lambo. Enjoy.
  6. Thanks! It is tough to find a bad angle of this car. Got a bit dusty but no rock chips.
  7. Here are a few more that I snapped that day. More - http://edbolian.com/?p=4784
  8. Larry from Winning Automotive Photography took these pictures of my car over the weekend. I thought they came out great. There are some more here - http://edbolian.com/?p=4807
  9. There are very few cars that are as fun and dramatic to be in as an LP640. There is nothing like it! That being said - the perfect circumstance would be have a 2WD Gallardo to drive regularly and a 640 for when you really want the full Lambo experience. You won't get the comfort, maneuverability, or practicality from the Murci that you can get out of a Gallardo.
  10. That is a reasonable range. I don't think many good cars are selling under that.
  11. Thanks for posting the remarks on the car. It has intrigued me since it was for sale at JStar Motors years ago. Stick and gold are both awesome. Your picture is much better than theirs. That color is really phenomenal in the sun. Flags don't come much brighter red than a refusal to allow a PPI. Keep looking for a good car from an honest seller. It is worth it! They are a blast.
  12. Awesome photos of some amazing cars. Great job as always Tanner.
  13. Thanks man. It was a pleasure as always but your wife gets the assist on this one! I am glad we got it done and certainly in awe of the garage that you have assembled. Can't wait to see the "His & Hers" pictures and some of the whole collection. Enjoy them in good health.

    Congrats on the new car Nick. Good luck with the mods.
  15. Honestly, with the current premium that 08 Superleggeras are bringing you are better off finding a 10 press car or an 11 LP570. The car with some warranty remaining, 3 model years newer, more power, better shifting, and smoother 4wd is easily worth the premium. Also, if you are financing the car you will save quite a bit on the lower interest rate with the newer car.
  16. Thanks. I can't wait to see all of your pictures from the midnight run in NY. Have a blast. Thank you. It is tough to find a bad angle on the car.
  17. Absolutely. Too bad we are 2,500 miles apart. We will have to coordinate better for the next rally. What are you planning for next summer?
  18. Took a few pictures of the car around Atlanta yesterday. More here - http://edbolian.com/?p=4169
  19. Glad it worked out. Congratulations on the sale. Good luck with the search for the replacement. Have a great day. There is not much that 10-15 miles of appropriately aggressive driving won't fix on these cars.
  20. It is actually an 09 LP560-4. The previous owner fitted the wing, side skirts, diffuser, and front bumper from an LP570. It has a factory Ad Personam full Alcantera interior as well. More pics - http://edbolian.com/?p=2407
  21. Glad you like the car. I ordered it and it took forever to get them to approve the color but it came out looking incredible. Pictures do not do the car justice and you really can't capture the color. We have a deposit on it and the deal should finish the week and I am glad the car will both stay local and get driven a lot. We actually just traded in our Blu Cepheus Gallardo today on a 2013 Verde Ithaca Superleggera.
