    You mean the glass engine cover isn't standard on the SE?

    Actually it is.

    There is I think 4 SEs in Australia (Mark knows the figure), so that will boost the numbers up, but I was only aware of one regular production model in Oz with the glass cover.

    But I could be wrong.

    The figure in total will definitely be more than 4 though...

    More HP, more TQ at lower revs, less weight, lower gearing than before...that 06 Gallardo must KILL the 430
    wonder why the top speed of the G is lower?

    O RLY!!! I didnt know that, i thought i was a GSE with the normal boot lid in black so i just assumed it wasnt standard.

    Who owns the regular production model with the glass boot that you know of?

    My old man has one (an 05 car).

    I was told by John at the lambo service shed in sth melb (i think his name is john anyway) that there was 3 G's in aus with glass lids, i assume these were all regulars now because this was end of last year.

    Cant wait to see an SE in person, got an invite to the Melbourne Show from lambo :D.

    Did a bucket of homework on this.......

    Capristo Stage 3 exhaust being fitted.
    with wireless switch for bypass muffler or no bypass.

    Should be a scream and wanst bad value either (i bought it from Canadian dealer [discovered on Fchat] but it shipped direct from Capristo in Germany.

    Just had the front colour coded and the centre bit done in black (car is red) -looks super.

    full stereo upgrade next week and then we are home.

    Was getting it lowered today but they are just taking too longand i wanted it back with the exhaust for the weekend so i deferred the lowering.

    i actually really enjoy the fact it does not bottom out everywhere at the moment but it needs to be dropped.

    how many mm did you lower your car?

    i was about to go 25mm but that will now wait until the 1500km service.

    we just went for another run, this time managed to give the SE a bit of stick. mhh will chime in later (had to go to dinner with the PM or something... :p ) but loved the handling and has a lot of good stuff to say...

    got some great footage and awesome sound-bytes, but that will have to wait till next week when i get a chance to look at it... something to definitely look forward to.

    in the mean time, i took a few more photos:

    the ashtray: pic 1 - pic 2 - pic 3 - pic 4 :rolleyes: :D

    first fillup: at the pump - the bill :eek:
