New addition to the family!

I'm keeping my new addition a secret from my non car friends as I'm a pretty private person and the attention makes me uncomfortable. But I had to share it with you guys! Picked up a 2006 Gallardo on Friday. Couldn't be happier with it! Can't wait to take it out to Skyline Blvd here in the Bay Area. Anyway, thought I'd share a quick iPhone photo shoot I did today with the Gallardo and my trusty steed, the c63. Love driving the Gallardo, but if I had to be completely honest, I still think the c63 is more fun to drive :P

I'm still getting used to the trans to be honest, but I don't hate it.

Great looking car! Did you pick it up from a SoCal dealer? I was looking at almost the same car a few months ago.

I live in the Bay Area too, but I decided I couldn't rock the Lambo. I was too scared it would be a "point A to Point A" car. I ended up with a 911TTS as the fun car.

Congrats, I wish I had the guts, driveway, and flash to get the Lambo!

Congrats Anthony
However, I'd choose the F430 any day over the Lambo...

Not to threadjack...but it is really cool that Gallardos and F430s are now selling used in the price range of new fully loaded E63s and M5s. Different cars completely, but they are in the "Holy Sh*t, I can float that" zone. Pretty nice considering Lambos and Ferraris are bedroom poster cars.

I leased a 507 coupe off the lot, and the sticker was $90K. I did not know you could put so many options on a C63.

These used "supercars" are hitting the spot now where you have a choice between new state of the art sport sedan or used car of your boyhood dreams.

Fun stuff. Work hard and enjoy your toys while you can!

Yes, I TOO am a 38 year old retired investment banker!

No major mods planned for the bull to be honest. It already has a nice set of shoes and a FabSpeed exhaust. The only thing I'm really considering is an LP bumper conversion, and maybe a satin pearl white wrap and leaving the roof and engine cover still in the stock gloss black.

Oh, and smoked side markers. That's a MUST!

I'm not 100% sure, but I honestly feel like the C63 will probably spank the Gallardo with the current mods I have on it The bull would probably kill it on the track though, haha

At least this retired investment banker's pictures are real! But at least it's nice to see some Lambos roam the Bay Area.
