    Now that I have sold my Ferrari. I decided to dust off the LM American and give it some loving :) Time to rack up those miles and drive it like it is supposed to be driven.

    I love this beast...

    Sorry for the crappy picture phone quality photos. I will take some more later today when I am out and about.

    Can I ask why you got rid of the 360? Just curious to know! And also, planning on purchasing another F-Car?

    I've always wanted an LM002. What is it like to live with. Reliable? Maintenance? etc?

    Thanks for the help...

    Ciao

    I sold it for a few reasons.

    I have too many cars.
    I hadn't driven it for about 4 months and I dont like to see cars sit. (I put 7500 miles on it in the first 18 months)
    I have a helicopter being delivered in about 2 weeks.
    There is only so many days in the week to play.

    Yes, I am sure I will get another one :)

    About as reliable as any other 80s-90s lambo. Lots of fun and worth the expense.

    Good luck on your search. It took me about 2 years to find "the right one". Why do you specifically want a '92?

    Thanks, I'll needed. Just want the last production year, but its hard to find a nice one in any year. I have seen a few but the price was too outrageous to even consider

    Absolutely beautiful...well, as beautiful as a massive SUV can get :D I've always been fascinated by the LM as it's about as impractical & over the top as an SUV can get. Thanks for posting the great pics! :)

    I saw a nice one (silver) go for I think $80K in Europe not long after Fast Talk found his!

    That's way cool. Scott "Lil' Bull" wants one for a surf wagon!

    What price did you see them for. I am just curious what "too outrageous" is?

    Nice ride. I find myself driving my Gwagen many times instead of the Ferrari because it is a fun ride as well. Great to have options! Are you getting one of those little 2 man helicopters or the real deal?

    Hey Adam,

    I've always been intrigued by the LM, but I have never seen
    such a nice example. Holy Molly, I'm floored! I Love it!
    I wonder, if under Audi they would ever reintroduce something
    under the Lambo Marquee? Kind of a cool thought!

    Is it a Tank? Is it fun to Drive? Give us some insights!

    109 seems high, the highest I have seen is 90-100K.

    I may sell mine when I figure out what I want next.

    It is a tank, but quite a lot of fun to drive. It is very heavy and you need to pay attention (no cell phones) both hands and both feet all the time. Not an every day driver, but definatly unique. I love the sound of that v12.
