    On thanksgiving I was lucky enough to go for a ride in a 05 Murci. The owner is friends with my sisters boyfriend was nice enough to let look it over front to back sit in it and take me for a quick spin.

    The car itself is just simply awe inspiring to look at; it’s the sexiest thing on four wheels. Drivers seat is a little tight for me but I don’t think ownership is completely out of the question, I’m sure I could get something figured out to make driving a little more comfortable.

    To all of you who enjoy ownership of these amazing cars congrats I hope I can join your ranks some day!

    Id love to ride in a Lamborghini. Ive driven countless Ferrari's when I worked at a Ferrari Dealer, but never had a Lamborghini come in when I worked there. Someday...

    Congrats.....
    I remember my first ride in a Lambo. It was in a 1988 Countach over the summer, and cost me $150, but was worth every penny.

    I still think the facelifted Diablo is the prettiest Lamborghini of them all. Anyone else agree?

    That's awesome, I've ridden in a couple Murcies and the experience is something I (and you) will not forget. Was it a pearl orange one with black wheels? I know there's a guy on a couple other forums in your area that recently got a pearl orange Murcielago with black LP640 wheels and I wonder if it's the same guy.

    Only two very bad pics from my Iphone. I got into a huge fight with my girlfriend about a half hour before I left to go for the ride and forgot to ask her for the camera. Yeah I know stupid me but im sure it will not be the last time I get the chance to see the car.

    BTW Im 6'3" which made the drivers seat a little uncomfortable.

    I remember my first ride in a Lamborghini. A couple of years ago a buddy of mine bought a 99 Diablo Roadster. He picked me up one morning about 9am and said, "Let’s go have lunch." I laughed and jumped in. We were heading out of town when I asked, “Where are we going?” He told me White Castles. I said, “The nearest one is about 3 hours from here." He just smiled and said, “That’s right.” So I spent about 8 hours riding in his Diablo. I think one of his favorite things to do is to drive and get White Castles in the Lambo.

    Damn your lucky. I've loved Lamborghinis every since I was about 9 or so (im 21 now) and I have yet to ride in one yet.....or even sit in one! I think the closest I've came is opening and closing the door on a Murcielago, thats it.

    Riding (or driving!) a lamborghini would make my life right now haha

    I'm wondering how comfortable Shaquille O'neil in his exotic cars.

    I took a Gallardo for a very short spin and just riding that low with something that powerful behind you is a wonderful experience. I can't imagine if I had actually had the opportunity to get it moving at a decent pace. I'd definitely enjoy the opportunity to ride along in a Murcie though. Congrats.

    If you get the chance to come to one of the Ferrari or exotic shows in or around Charlotte give me a pm and I will oblige with a ride in mine.

    The ride was very short but amazing. I really wish I could have gotten some more seat time in the car, just the fact that I knew I was cruising down the road in a MURCI put a huge smile on my face, they are the sexiest thing on four wheels IMO. Cant wait until the day I can enjoy ownership of these amazing cars.

    It was actually funny, I knew more about the car than the owner. I asked him some questions about it, he really didnt know anything other than it was fast and looks really cool. He isnt a car guy at heart, but he is a Lamborghini fan, says he has owned them since the early 90's.

    Now if I can just catch a ride in a 6.0 diablo life will be complete :)
