Destructo Report post Posted May 2, 2019 In a new series by member DoctaM3, he's cataloging the aptly titled, "Road to the SVJ" for his bespoke build. First video is up, and it's a neat look at things for those that haven't been to the motherland. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DoctaM3 Report post Posted May 2, 2019 Thanks guys. Almost done with the video looking at Ad Personam. Should be out next week. Trying to keep the videos small and informative. Episode 3 will be driving the SVJ behind a talented (and mad) test driver on the streets around Sant'#### Bolognese. Honestly, I wish I could say that was on the bucket list (never did I dream I would be able to do it) but it happened and I will never forget. Just another reason why I love this brand. Let me know what you guys think. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DoctaM3 Report post Posted May 5, 2019 Thanks guys. Second video is now lives. Trying to get the link on airborne WiFi is like gaming on dialup modem from AOL days. If someone want to snag & post so I don’t mess it up that would be awesome. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Destructo Report post Posted May 6, 2019 Watched this last night. The AP room looks like a lot of fun! It's great to see the excitement in the process, not a lot of people share that side of it, so it's great to watch develop and "experience" from behind the scenes. Thanks for sharing!

DoctaM3 Report post Posted May 17, 2019 The Aventador SVJ drive in Sant'Agata is mostly complete. Honestly, the car is insane--and our test driver whom I followed is savage. He reminds me a slightly younger version of Valentino Balboni. Video should be out on Sunday or early next week. I can't wait to share.

DoctaM3 Report post Posted May 21, 2019 Got a teaser for tomorrow's YouTUBE video ready while we are putting the final touches on it. I meant what I said, "My brain FLEW out of my head!" Listen closely, the SVJ pops on upshifts too--I was not expecting it. Video should go live 3PM Eastern tomorrow (Tuesday May 21st). [Mods, not sure how to resize the video. If you can fix it, please help]. Aventador SVJ Teaser.mov Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DoctaM3 Report post Posted May 21, 2019 So I will do a longer write up on the Aventador SVJ. This car is honestly VISCERAL. There is still nothing like the old school Contact or Diablo but I must say, this car is definitely an homage to NFG days of Lamborghini. Alberto reminds of Valentino Balboni and he is a savage--he knows all the cops in town so he went BALLS out! What an incredible experience of a lifetime. One I will never forget. Looking forward to more videos in the series but for now, here is the test drive. One thing you will notice, the car POPS/crackles on upshift. Was not expecting it.

martz Report post Posted May 22, 2019 thanks for the great video. How would you compare the SVJ to the "budget" LP-700 Aventador? :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Night and day in every aspect. Best way I can describe it is..... The Aventador has always been a sexy car, but it is a clumsy car. The SV was a much better car, but still not what you would expect from a car that looks and sounds this awesome. The SVJ is an athlete. The driving experience and performance finally match the looks. And IMO... this is the best sounding Lambo to date. I am not sure how they did it, but they did.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots of Ad Personam on mine so I am sure they are trying to produce easier specs faster to get them out the door. I am ok with this since this car, like my 50th Anniversary are permanent in the collection. I can be patient as long as they get it right.

Do you know if all SVJ Coupes will be MY2019 or could yours possibly be a MY2020? My dealer has told me December delivery for my MY2020 SVJ Roadster. I had already 95% decided on Viola Pasifae for mine without having seen it in person and then when I saw your car at Cannery Row last year it nailed it down 100%. I'm beyond excited. Can't wait to see what you decided on for your new build. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DoctaM3 Report post Posted December 20, 2019 Still not delivered or even in production. Still working on specs with factory. Guess this is harder than expected. Now it’s December in Italy so you can guess the outcome. Ugh. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
