    This is the car!

    "Lamborghini design boss Luc Donckerwolke admits as much, saying two roof panels are all that differ between the Concept S and the final Gallardo Spider that will première in Frankfurt this September."

    when a guy is getting married, he has a stag doo (big party) with his mates, just blokes, before he gets hitched. 12 of us off to Tallin in Estonia for 3 nights. We are karting and paintballing AGAINST the estonian army, how cool is that !

    Seems like a photoshop...but one that is undoubtedly close to the real thing.

    C'mon guys, its a Lambo, they've thought of that. The space under the center brace is open, so road head is doable. This car is perfect.

    No split cockpit . From the doors forward it is an identical car, the rear wings a fractionally higher with rear engine cover having more cooling vents slightly raised , role bars are hidden away. Soft top is powered double lined with glass rear window, this also raises when hood down to act as a wind deflector great looking car Ferrari 430 looks old hat compared

    I'm on LIST for 430 coupe not Spider but probably get Gallardo Spider to
    drive as opposed to investment. Ferrari wins hands down in that DEPARTMENT BUT that's the only department...looks, performance ,reliability
    all go to Lamborghini in my opinion.
