Apparently, an SL65 is cleaner than the G I have... Uh-oh.

(1) Diesels aren't listed. (2) I don't really care. (3) The G should be less clean than an SL - it has more weight.

It looks like I'm MOR.

and I don't really care either.

My car is red!

Will Al Gore give me praise and credit if I paint it green?

Speaking of which... Premium here is $2.76/gal and rising, of course..

The S600 was next to last, the later being a G.

Getting my bike out in late May, screw this winter weather.

Yes, Diesels are listed. It lists 300d/cd on there.

Well, my Lambo doesn't come out very often. I might drive it to our New England GTG though, and have my Girlfriend drive the 560 SEC,AMG Euro for me. Will you all let my 89 Countach, through the front gate though...? I also might bring my Chevy powered, 79 300CD as well.

Mine's silver, the police refer to it as grey, but I suppose it depends on the light to a degree.

I'd think you'd want to exercise the Lambo often. Hi strung Italian cars don't fare to well when they aren't driven. Do you have any pics?? There's an MB owner over on MBworld.org with a white Lambo...

Will post pics soon. Haven't had a chance yet to take any shots of her. Only got a 'puter in November, and a digital camera in like december sometime. The car has been at Lamborghini, Ohio, for repairs/storage the whole time. It was just delivered back to my home storage unit, but I haven't been home to get any shots of it yet. I'll get some this weekend, when I go home for Easter...I'll be posting them next week..Are you all sure it's welcome around here ? lol. As far as driving the pos is concerned, every time I drive it, something breaks. There really isn't a very good quality control department, at Lamboghini. The cars are WAY over-rated. The only thing good about it, it the looks, the speed, and....Well I guess the re-sale value, is still o.k...

We had a Ferrari. We drove it a decent amount, not like a daily driver, but we put like 3-4k miles a year on it. It was fun winding out the engine from a stop. Sounded sooo damn sweet.


Although, when it broke, it needed $$$.
