I was told that if an Italian waved his hand at you with his palm going round in circles, that means YOU ARE A WANKER!!! No offence. But you should have given the same gesture back to him.  | ||

HE, HE He didn't know until he came back out and saw us doing that! He waved his arms shouting something in italian and shooed us all away before he got back in and roared away again! It was funny. | ||

Ah, a speedster... i knew it looked different... You took turns blipping the throttle...? Did he know you were all doing that...? That's so cool...! What an awesome story...! | ||

No prob DES! The 'chopped' diablo is actually a lambo speedster. Too bad they didn't produce it. No DES, I didn't get to drive any of these cars. This was the lambo museum at the factory. The only time I was in a lambo there was when a test driver came in with an orange murcielago. He left the car running when he dashed into the main building. We took turns getting into the car and 'blipping' the throttle! It was awesome... I'll describe the differences of the factories in another thread with more pics from my trip Forza! | ||

That looks like the Diablo roadster concept that came out before the actual production version. | ||

I've heard the Ferrari factory should have a healthy work inviroment. With plants and good team work. In comparison I've heard the lambo factory is more clean/tidy | ||

Lawrence, these are awesome, thank you...! That Diablo looks heavily chopped, is that a custom job...? Is it a 30th anniversary Diablo...? The Diablo GTR looks awesome, too... i don't suppose you had the opportunity to drive any of these...? The Miura is sexy as hell, as that car always is... You visited both the Lamborghini & Ferrari factory in one shot...? That sounds like some serious sensory overload... What were the two factories like...? Can you give us a comparison...? Thanks again for posting, Lawrence, i really appreciate it... | ||

Here are some pics from the Lambo factory. We took a tour there after our tour of the Ferrari factory last September:     |
