Trading the 500 in....

Those that are in the Cali market what are you seeing the 55 go for off sticker. I leased my car from Laguna Niguel and want to be fair when I go in. I know with the future 63 coming out I should have some leverage. I'd wait on the 63 but will hopefully be taking delivery of an 06' Gallardo SE as well..that should make up for the difference.

Thanks guys.

So I guess no one is in the market for a 06' 55?

Hi Eric,

I've been looking at the 55 in cali. Pricing is still up in the high 80's to mid 90's, USED. I'm looking at a couple online, they seem to be in the low 80's to low 90's.

Hope this helps

By the way, you seem to have very deep pockets $$$ with the lambo on the way, who cares about pricing?

Actually that doesn't help at all lol. What I mean was off invoice pricing. All cars have different MSRP's....so a general number off was what I was looking for.

Don't you just love people who think if you have money you must want to throw it away! Rich people stay rich by saving their money....not throwing it away.
