    Over two months of searching the country for a used 06 balloon white gallardo coupe, and I finally found her last week waiting for me in the Lamborghini of Las Vegas showroom! So excited!!! My first exotic. And quite a step up from my previous car an Acura RSX, lol.

    Flew up to vegas saturday morning to pick her up, and made it back in LA by 5pm. Great drive btw the roads were smooth and straight for miles, next best thing to that awesome Top Gear runway that everyone wishes they could play on.

    There just happened to be an exotic car drive the next day here in Calabasas which included canyon driving through the hills of malibu and up the coast highway, so I got to break it in and take some photos the next day, so here they are!

    My favorite Gallardo color! Looks great. Would look even better with tinted windows, tinted tallights, and the callistro wheels painted black like they are on the nera. The contrast of black and white gives a very cool effect.

    beautiful , now paint it like a SE . black roof , black side mirrors , black engine cover , and paint the callisto rims titanium grey . IMHO looks way better than black .

    Wrong on all counts. The SE color trim already looks dated, the clean line of the uninteruppted white is pretty sharp in those photos versus the 90s-looking SE color scheme.

    And forget the grey, black is the appropriate contrast color for the wheel centers, preferably with a polished lip.

    Thx for all the congrats and compliments.

    Got clear bra (full hood, full fenders, rocker panels) plus smoked tails and side markers. All put on by Sticker City in sherman oaks... (thanks to Dutch & Dean over there, great guys).

    + the interior pics as requested
    + one shout out to lambo las vegas (I dealt with Eden, didn't meet Nick)

    very nice. congrats. I'm going to go against most and would keep the wheels as is. I've always been a silver rim lover. Either way your car is great.

    btw guys I went back to the original look WITHOUT smoked tails.

    Ya, I got them smoked to try it out as it was convenient while they were putting on the clear bra. But after comparing before & after, it's unanimous everyone likes the original tails on my car better, without smoke! Smoke looks dull on my car.

    Why mess with a perfect car, right!?

    That's a tough call, either way you can't go wrong.
