Gallardopete Report post Posted March 15, 2010 love your spyder, keep or trade for the SL? Mixed feelings about it but probably going to trade. The car looks and drives fantastic but its weak points have come into view via the other recent addition to the garage: The GT3.2 is probably the best driving car I have owned bar none. Its connection to the road and feel for what is going on via the wheel or your arse in the bucket seats is the most direct I've ever felt. The G Spyder is a sensational experience and assaults all the senses but its just a bit too soft on UK B roads. It can get a bit floaty and unsettled so you lose touch (a bit) with what the car is doing beneath you. I am hoping that the weight loss (V Spyder), the sharper set up and 400 BHP/Tonne will give a GT3 beating drive... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ag02M5 Report post Posted March 15, 2010 Thanks for the scan...saved it to the HD. A local gent has a blue one on order. You may have seen his white 560 with manual trans. on ebay for sale. Oh and his SL is stick! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
VCR Report post Posted March 16, 2010 A local gent has a blue one on order. You may have seen his white 560 with manual trans. on ebay for sale. Oh and his SL is stick! Are you sure? Don't think the 570SL comes in blue, not even through Ad Personam. Perhaps he had ordered a 550-2 Balboni as that comes in Blu Caelum.

He said blue clear as day. He has a 670sv, Carrera GT, 560 and a few others so I know he isn't blowing smoke. Said he already placed the order. Guess we will see. 100% Superleggera.

VCR Report post Posted March 16, 2010 You can have ANY color through Ad Personam. Not in this case according to the local dealer. Ad Personam here means matte colours which are white, black and brown. He said blue clear as day. He has a 670sv, Carrera GT, 560 and a few others so I know he isn't blowing smoke. Said he already placed the order. Guess we will see. 100% Superleggera. Ok, is it possible to get more info. please because I am thinking of exactly that colour. TIA. Btw, I never thought that he or you were blowing smoke. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

VCR Report post Posted March 16, 2010 That's what some dealers (incorrectly) said about the SV too don't forget. I knew that; but I checked the communique on the ordering template from Lamborghini. And in this particular case, I'd rather be wrong. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, let's hope you are! It would be very sad if Lambo said no to custom colours. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fortis Report post Posted March 16, 2010 VCR my local dealer told me any color I want he could get, I brought that Ad Personam to his attention and he said don't worry about it we can get you any color you want. I have no idea what to believe. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I brought that Ad Personam to his attention and he said don't worry about it we can get you any color you want. Chances are if voices are loud enough and/or people are willing to pay $$$ for it, Lambo would do it. Remember, Bianco Monocerus was added LATER to the original SL. The flip side is that once you get into personalization, then your pocket becomes wide open: e.g. matte paint is a $20K option, at least in my part of the world.

Fortis Report post Posted March 16, 2010 are there any aftermarket exhaust systems available for the LP560? The LP570 muffler according to Evo is identical with the LP560 one, that's the first thing that must go. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Almost went to a well known F1 driver but at the death he bought a yellow one... On SL colours, anything is possible under Ad Personam. I thought about getting mine in Balloon White and have an e-mail from the factory confirming it is possible Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
