    I ran into the same Orange Gallardo Superleggera (same vanity plate) today around 1:30 PM on N Broadway Avenue and then continuing southbound on Lake Shore Drive. Beautiful car. Great exhaust note. I spoke with the owner briefly while we were at a light on Michigan Ave. Seemed like a nice guy.

    Jeremy and I got a chance to take this car out for a photo shoot. It's the prototype car 0 of 350...

    Hardee har har... No, it's actually a quite large file. I just didn't feel like pulling out the memory card, so I texted it to my email. Made the file a lot smaller. It's actually a great camera phone, Tmobil G1.

    Looks like Lambo is going for the 'Ricer Look', trying to infringe on the Nipponese market. Hey, that's where the money is!

    Are 'coffee can mufflers' an option? :D I know it's a prototype, but it looks absolutely ridiculous as a road car.....ceptin' maybe for the 'Gold Chain' crowd.

    P.S. No insults or digs intended; but it looks like something a kid would want. If it's meant for track only, I can understand the wing but, then again, Lambo never really made it as a track car. Just an innocent question, why do you always have the doors open??

    I know. I know. I figured someone would give me crap for that. :) I recently had the direct wire kit installed for the Valentine One in the ceiling console of my 360 Modena and need to create a shorter power cable. It’s on the to do list for this week. Huge improvement though over having a wire hanging down to the normal power adapter between the seats. :)

    It's not a prototype, the LP670-45678 SV is a production model. It can be ordered with or without the crazy wing as well such as this one.

    Glad to hear you like it, I haven't had the opportunity to play around with any Android devices yet. :(

    i think what she meant was ONE was/is a prototype. From what I was told it wont be sold to anyone, number 000 of 350, and is going from dealer to dealer.

    I think the car looks awesome, but I guess thats cause I'm a "kid" (21) so I must love big wings, huge mufflers, and wear gold chains.

    Red 599 headed north on 94 this morning on the way to work, they exited by Racine, Wisconsin. We were going 80-85 the 2-3 miles I was behind but the road was absolutely saturated with speed traps this morning.
    FYI - Radar/laser activity has really increased lately on 94 north of the state line - anyone headed that way keep your eyes open. This morning from the state line to Franklin, northbound side alone, I saw two brown sheriff's cars, four blue state trooper cars, one motorcycle officer, and a big black unmarked Chevy suburban patrolling, and only the two sheriff's cars didn't already have someone pulled over.. they also use an unmarked gray Chrysler 300 and a red crown vic..

    I absolutely love it. Fantastic phone. My sister has an iPhone (Which I've played with) and my friend has a 3GS. (which I've also played with.) Even though the iPhone runs smoother, the G1 can do a lot of things better than the iPhone.

    HTC makes great phones, I previously had a TMobile Wing which I liked a lot.

    Don't you love how much this thread can get side tracked? :) Orange Gallardo in Glenview today. Also, 2 Bentley GTCs driving through Northbrook.
