Smash Boy Report post Posted September 28, 2011 Congrats on the Monterey SV....looks gorgeous! But I could have sworn someone in the thread called out the Monterey SV..... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
FXRcR1 Report post Posted September 28, 2011 Congrats on the new SV, it's gorgeous! I instantly recognized the car from pictures I had archived years and years ago, they were even titled Monterey #13. It's interesting, with ALL the cars you've cycled through that you're back with the SV. I hope you keep it for the long haul as mentioned. BTW, I agree with most, the wheels are perfect as is.

toyroy2003 Report post Posted September 28, 2011 ABOUT time...funny, as of late people are starting to REALY see the value in these Diablos, SV and 6.0 cars...take my word for it..they are the next car that people will be saying.. "rember when I could buy that for......" IMO, 5 years out, you cant touch a decent 6.0, SV or 99VT for under 200k/ Lets log this and see October 31, 2016........./?????????????

Robster Craws Report post Posted September 28, 2011 not a photoshop pro but i had a go at it Good shop! But IMO ruins the car. The chrome makes the bright white really pop. This is one car that should be left as is! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robster Craws Report post Posted September 28, 2011 cmon man chrome is for last decades rappers, u need contrast on a white lambo 99.9% of the time I'd agree but there is something different going on here.. Something special Let's call them alloys if that makes everyone feel better. We can get rid of the dreaded C word. Lol Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allan-Herbie Report post Posted September 28, 2011 Hmm Its a tough one.. Deuce and the wife also hate the chrome, while Im finding myself thinking it needs to stay.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deuce Report post Posted September 28, 2011 Hmm Its a tough one.. Deuce and the wife also hate the chrome, while Im finding myself thinking it needs to stay.. One you get it and look at in person for a few days, the chrome will go away! It always looks better in photos and shit in person Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
turboad Report post Posted September 28, 2011 + all the polishing it will need, and how swirl marks and scratches show more on chrome. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allan-Herbie Report post Posted September 28, 2011 One you get it and look at in person for a few days, the chrome will go away! It always looks better in photos and shit in person No, because I used to see the chrome in person many years ago and wanted it for my own.. Even on my SV, I took the black wheels off.. and replaced with chrome... Damnnn my old SV was hot... I need that one too!

intence Report post Posted September 28, 2011 nice! love the balloon white (?) color i remember seeing vids of your old sv on racingflix.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete Report post Posted September 28, 2011 See I love the wheels.. I even love the chrome, just in this day and age no one is doing chrome so Im not sure which way to go. Stunning car and perfect color, Congrats ! Lots of comments on the wheels, and all good food for thought. The chrome does look good on this car but at the same time IMO the wheel style is not up to par with the body and makes the overall car look abit retro or incomplete/unfinished. I think the right wheels (take your time in deciding) could really dial-in the personality/presence for such a timeless stunning bodystyle.

Mako Report post Posted September 28, 2011 Always loved the Monterey edition of these cars, very cool to see what you'll ultimately do to this one... And I agree with those who say to keep the wheels. This is the only time that style EVER works anymore, but on this car it really does look perfect as a classic tribute. How much power is Alex going to aim for with his TT? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cowchaser Report post Posted September 28, 2011 Congrats Allan... welcome back... Great car.... but... MINUS Chrome PLUS SV logo Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diablo_4_Ever Report post Posted September 28, 2011 Nice car Allan! I have always liked the Monterey edition. I remember seeing this car for sale in the Dupont Registry magazine, September '99 (still have it, see pic). Only thing I would change is repainting the black parts on the bumper.
