My plan was to buy a winter home in HK after I sold my 360 but that never took place because of SARS. I am now thinking of getting a Lamborghini L140. Their design may not as sexy as Ferrari but somehow I always find their design great. I don't know how to explained it. Anyone have any experience with Lamborghini and importantly how they drive?

2002 C32 AMG
Lamborghini on the Big Island

I rented a Lamborghini in Hawaii a couple of summers ago, It was a blast to drive, the shifting took some time to get use to and the clutch was heavier than a u-haul truck, other than that the car attracts more attention then a dead body in the middle of the street. I drove the car for 12 hours straight, back and forth on the H1 highway.

Ma On Sha

My brother-inlaw owned one in Ma On Sha which he bought in 1994 for 10 millions plus but now only worth less than 4 millions, I believe.
