    You need to contact Roy , he's on the board here. No affiliation and have not bought anything from him (still too poor up here in Canada).
    However from alot of other posters who have purchased cars from him he is top notch.

    WWW.CATSEXOTICS.COM

    1-866-LAMBORGHINI **Call me for a CAR!!

    however last time i checked his website was not working.

    As far as the newer one go: just think Audi meets Ferrari, and out pops a Lambo.

    Like another poster said...Call Roy Cats...He is the expert on this site. Furthermore he will help you and give you all sorts of advise. He purchased my 05. The Murcielago is a rocket and a show stopper. Plan on 30 minute gas stops. Excellent build quality only one small accelerator position re-adjustment. It was a great ownership experience. If you post on the Lambo section you will receive a wealth of info..perhaps one poster will help spot a car for you if Roy doesn't have one. If he doesn't he knows where one probably is.

    Like all have said. If your buddy wants a Lambo have him call Roy Cats. Best deal on any Lambo in the country. If he doesn't have one in stock he will find what you want

    My friend had a Gallardo then a Murci.

    Had a cam failure (seize) in the Murci due to some type of resin clogging a top end oiling hole. Happened just outside of warranty and was expensive for him. He wasn't sure where the resin came from or if it was elsewhere in the motor. Was very odd. He no longer trusted the car and traded in for an F430 and is very happy.

    He said he got more 'odd' looks in the Murci than the Gallardo or F430. Also felt it drove like a 'bus'. I'm sure it's a nice car. Supposedly his cam failure was the only 'known' incidence? But how many are reported?

    my friend had a murci with 6 speed, he sold it because the clutch need to be changed around 3000 miles, a bit less or a bit more depends on the driver !!

    he sold it and got an F-1 murci, much more reliable than the 6 speed
    he says

    note: he doesnt drives it in summer because the whether here is sooo HOT and the murci just turns OFF after starting it up...

    Shouldn't this thread be in the "LamborghiniChat.com" sub-forum?

    I think going from a Murci to a 430 would be a fate worse then death.

    No, actually, I would tend to think that death would be worse. You could always get back to us on that one...when you try it.
