LV Eric

I lived there 20 years give or take Still have businesses there and properties You’ll have fun, will be hot. Depending on what you are into there’s lots to do, the strip sucks after 48 hours. Red Rock is a nice drive, I’d rent a car, there’s other places to drive to that are desert 🌵 scenic. Can go rent machine guns lol. It’s fun. You’ll figure it out when you get to town, but my main suggestion is grab a car. Downtown isn’t bad these days, Container Park in downtown is cool and that area. Fremont St down town kinda sucks, the other stuff just east of it is cool. Ask when your there.

We all have adhd, or what ever it’s called I’m still in the both is best camp. But if one car, get the big one

Welcome back!

Yup that’s 100% true, A hurricane is good for rally’s and canyons Gun to my head..... pick one. 12 cylinder’s New topic....

I’d say both. fcuk it have a great year and grab one of each!

I had a 97 Roadster, I loved it. That’s why I like the SV because it feels like a Lambo. When it’s cold it sucks for a few minutes then good to go. I’m a DIablo guy 1000%, and like that feeling Diablos give you that sadly is fading into the past with each new generation of cars.

Oh yes the press and pray start button issue, could be bullshit I was told that was computer’s rebooting. In any case probably seem longer than it really is. Or just push harder lololol Best

I had a 50 anniversary and didn’t like it much(other than the paint) Have a 17 SV and love it. Like you said I wish it was a manual but it’s 2 prize. I prefer it to the gearbox I had in my f12 that was butter. I like butter in my luxury cars. The gear box in the SV sucks when it’s cold, but in LA not a issue. Also in traffic it’s ok when it’s up to temp, but not ideal. However for spirited driving I LOVE the gear box in the SV in manual mode(if you have to have a manual). I’ve had zero problems with mine to answer your question. The only problems I’ve had is the CEL is on 50% of the time at random times, I took it in to service was told was a software issue. And was fixed, 20 miles later it was on again. Car isn’t missing shifts, running funny, seems 100%. So I ignore it. The rest of the lights on the dash, which I have no idea what the hell they mean seem to light up like a Christmas tree now and then. Again I ignore them. Car has the right amount of power, no issues starting, steering is fine. I push it reasonably hard at times and everything is just fine. I had the same issues with my Diablo’s, Murci, Gallardo’s every Lambo I’ve owned. And been fine. I do l8ke the gear box in the 17 SV much more than the 50th. I mention this because to me this is the real question, not so much reliability. I think you’ll have your typical Lambo owner experience in what ever car you choose. And I respect your experience. On another side note the SV hasn’t taken a price hit yet, that’s coming soon with the new car coming soon. So if you decide on a SV which I can confidently say you’ll prefer over a regular Aventador now isn’t the time to buy a SV. I like mine so much I’m holding it, or I’d sell it now and make a deposit on the SV-J. Go drive a SV and others to see what appeals to you. Not worry about the reliability of the car, you owned plenty of lambos and know the deal. Hope your well, looking forward to see what you buy Best regards Eric

Yup the lawyers fucked it all up. What happened to tort reform? Remember that little thing? fcuking lobby took care of that and the rest is history.... I mite not wear shoes but I have a good memory.......

Then the standard of care in America is SHIT, aside from the cost of insurance. I pay cash in Europe for my health care, I have insurance for catastrophic reasons, otherwise I leave America to go to the doctor.

From your lips to gods ears

For me, new norm I’m open to better ideas, I had great insurance for over 20 years. Now I have shit that costs lots more....

RIP, brutal I’m scared of bikes. Looks like fun, but can’t do it

Amazing person and history. I’ve only met him a few times don’t know him. He drove one of my Diablo GTR’s a couple years ago in New York but sadly I wasn’t there. That would have been a great experience. 50 years wow!!!

I haven’t drove one, however you confirmed what I was thinking. Seems like a marketing gaff to me, not a great car.

Maybe the $100,000 watch’s help I don’t know lol Or care, I have good hygiene Oh btw I do have lots of Zilli cloths, so if you think I’m always dressed poorly-guess again.

When u rarely wear shoes the skin on the bottoms of your feet become shiny and like Teflon, they don’t pick up dirt and never smell. I can wear shoes and socks on a 24 hour flight and my socks at the end of the trip still smell like the detergent they were washed in. All the dead skin cells that create Oder are exfoliated off my feet. They are a self cleaning body part. Takes years to develop this, but it’s great. Nothing hurts in bare feet (except extreme heat) I never get cuts, punctures, anything bad. And the no smell part is the best.

Take your shoes off and see how fast they will come talk to you.

I just walk in with no shoes on, works great every time. If they know me, I’m not waiting at all If they don’t know me, 2-3 people will approach me and when they figure it out I got action instantly. I’m dead serious about this. In LA it’s well known ,I do it world wide. Best, Eric

Correct have to manage the situation so going forward you look good/solid

That’s the truth

Something Diablo

I been on this site for a little while, I’m still kinda new. But I’m not completely in the dark...... There’s 2 kinds of ppl here. Guys earning a living trying to sell products here to car owners-I’m not mad at them, as long as they are good honest people who am I to knock them? Then there’s the other people, who own a Lambo(or 5 in my case) and are just sharing their experiences with each other. Improving the cars or trying too. I’m certainly not mad at them, this is just for fun and good times for some of us, and I consider it a blessing to have owned a lambo 19 years straight. I’m in whenever you say jump, wish I could come see it, but I’m chillin and doing some biz in la next few months. BTW, I got you in the 2nd group of people. Thx again!

This bump came at a interesting time. I’ve used the Shure846’s since I started this thread years ago. For countless hours, on probably 30 international flights and more domestic. And at home often, 5 days/week. I upgraded the cables and got a amp, whole kit is $2500. Which works out to 0.136428647 cents/hour. Cheapest luxury item I ever owned by the hour. Now since this thread the IEM market has really blown up and $1000 ain’t much now for a pair. In fact it’s not even half way to the top now. What makes the timing of this bump interesting is in the last 2-3 weeks I’ve finally noticed some fall off of the sound quality and sound stage of the 846’s. I didn’t expect them to last this long, I’ve changed the foam tips and never used them at high volume levels. Not sure what I’m replacing them with, possibly the same thing because they fit like custom IEM’s would fit-just was lucky. And they are not too big so I can sleep with them in on flights as the noise canceling is great just with their natural seal in my ears. So after all these years, my opinion of them is only better. Just a heads up caution, I’ve read about counterfeit ones for $500-$700, so I’d only buy them from authorized dealers. Best Eric

We need to speed this up to get to 25, I’m getting old and blind. This is a medical needs issue for me. The POS factory screen is just that. Thx again Best Eric
