Went to LoW today to get a tag issue cleared up and couldn't resist snapping a few pic's. Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
i visited there everyday on my lunch break when i was working up there...can't remember the sales man name but had to be one of the coolest gentlemen I have met (a sales man at that). He gave me a full set of Lambo rotors off a Gallardo that was having a break job done. He took me for rides in various shop cars and let me wonder around the shop...such a cool place even if people say they are overpriced I would buy from them. So many cool cars when I was there, didn't have a camera Oh and I got to sit with a tech when he was doing a timing belt on a Testerossa (sp? lord don't shoot me for my poor spelling) he was sipping a cappuccino, haha while wrenching on something.
Indeed it would have been! Someone needs to get a group photo of all the Lamborghini's built throughout the year in the same color. Yellow of course! For some reason, out of all the Lamborghini's built I prefer the Diablo SV, and Gallardo! Gallardo=sex on wheels.
I think its because the Murci is built around the new safety rules while the diablo was built around basically early 90's architecture for safety etc. so it can look more sleek due to the design not being hindered by all this pedestrian safety. I say )$# pedestrian safety, anyone who is stupid enough to walk in front of a high powered exotic at speed should have there legs smacked off ;-)
Just so there is no confusion. There were no ped. safety requirements when the Murcie was designed (2001) and released (2002) and there are still no such ped. safety requirements. Link from 2001: http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m3165/is_2001_June_1/ai_75521676 Not only that, it would not really affect the design on the Murcie's front end at all since there is no engine up there for a ped. to hit if run into (that's the biggest issue, hood 'crumple zone' because there is little space between the hood and engine..on a front engine car) The Diablo was built until 2001, Murcie's were fast on the heals of the Diablo. The bloated design on the Murcie is for one reason, Luc designed the car rather than an Italian. http://www.vwvortex.com/artman/publish/lamborghini_news/article_526.shtml -J
