topjay Report post Posted August 15, 2019 Lots cancelled in UK by customers but quite a while ago, people thinking they will lose money, some even walking away from deposits, mainly due to lots of speculators in the market now so lots for sale comparatively as Lambo have produced more, so more easily available to newcomers and the usual flippers that Lamborghini dealers shouldn’t be giving cars to but always do. They will I’ll only drop the numbers if they can’t sell them imo, a PR exercise to save face and pretend it’s for the customers benefit.

kingrichards Report post Posted August 15, 2019 I won’t name the dealership here in US but there is 3 SVJ’s in the floor and the salesperson didn’t took deposits when they specced out the cars and people bailed on these SVJ’s mind you there all coupes tho. My sales guy he told me about it and now they might ask me to place not only deposits (which I gave them 4-5 months ago already) but also potentially additional $50k during the securing the allocation and also another $50k during the build....they are contemplating doing this for repeated clients like me. However this is what they will do to a new fish walking in the door to order any Aventadors...again this is what I was told.

sprite Report post Posted August 16, 2019 Aren't most SVJ Coupes built by now anyways since roadsters will start being built soon? If they don't make as many as planned the badging will be wrong like they were for the Murci SV. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoctaM3 Report post Posted August 22, 2019 Haven’t heard much on reducing the numbers but I am all for it. Does anyone have any idea on the number of SVJ produced so far? Also, why would they not produce SVJ alongside SVJ-R? Sprite’s question got me thinking. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SVJ R is that the 63 version you’re talking about ? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

sprite Report post Posted August 26, 2019 My dealer has two brand new SVJ coupes for sale last I checked. I'm curious how many are sitting across the country. It seems Lamborghini got overzealous with the production numbers. Wonder if it's specific to the US market or if they are sitting all over? I really wish they would have limited production a lot more. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lamborghini should have capped SVJ production at 900 total instead of 900 coupes and 800 roadsters. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

martz Report post Posted August 28, 2019 I was surprised to hear that there will be more SVJ's than SV's, I thought it would be the other way around with only a few hundred SVJ's total. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GT Venom Report post Posted August 28, 2019 Don't get me wrong, the SVJ is an incredible car. For me I don't think there is enough change to warrant the extra money when my SV is already a great car. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

topjay Report post Posted August 29, 2019 J drives and handles better, SV is more special Imo, if i could only have 1 it would be SV, something magic about it. J i think thy tried too hard to make it different and got a few things wrong that didn't need changing. They do feel like different cars though, J more modern and much more responsive. If SV had dual clutch i think it would be a forever car for me, not much on it i would change everything else does the job fine. With numbers Lamborghini have ruined the market for owners by oversupply, its basically a production mode not a limited carl, anyone that wants one will get one just you might have to wait a bit.
