Oh...I got mixed up.

I've seen a maroon colored Murcielogo driving around South Charlotte...isn't that the faster and more expensive of the two?

Raul, check out the June 21 issue of AutoWeek (latest). I just got mine in the mail today. They did an AutoFile review of the Gallardo and the guy from New Bern sent a nice blurb about his car to the magazine! He has the E-Gear sequential shifter rather than the traditional 6-speed.

Do you hear that? That's the sound of Raul spending his money on a weekly magazine. Save your pennies Airgater see link below.

VA S2k I noticed/read it also. Here's the link......He calls it " affordable " then he admits he wrote a pretty big check for the car.

Yeah.. the yellow one in Charlotte is parked next to my TSX in my building. Right between that and his 356GT... it is sooo sweet and sounds great. Nice guy too.

The weird thing is, he tells me it drives like a 'cab-over' truck. The front wheels are so far back, that you have to take the corner way out to yellow line or you will roll the back wheels over the curb.

Interesting observation. For an extreme example of this scroll up to my sig and compare the position of the driver's seat in relation to the front wheels for both vehicles in the pic.

I have a name. Let the stalking begin.

Kidding, of course.

Thanks VA S2K and VFROOOM!
