It would make for a much more interesting segment if they were driving it, rather than stand there and just BS about it.

Amazing car though.

amazing looking car. Saw it in person at the LA auto show. But a big disappointment, because for 1.3 million, I would expect it to have some more power over the murci. At that price why not a veyron?

Car can be had with the goofy instrumentation or standard LP style. Car is old news. Someone has one in LA already.

I hear the mark up is a lot more than 1.3. My neighbor who owns a LP640 says that his dealership called him to see if he is interested. His answer was no because besides the exterior differences, there isn't enough performance difference compared to his LP.

There is a guy in Newport who drives one around quite frequently. It does look amazing though and sounds even better.

You do realize that only 20 are made....is this for the whole world?
If so your neighbor is either filthy rich and i mean rich or is talking BS, because he would have to pass all the billionaires out there that want one for a toy

Smile Hot..

The new Lambo is hot, I read up on it in the Automobile mag earlier. However, I do agree that:

1. For the price I would expect more power out of it. The Veyron, as mentioned earlier has more power and costs less.
2. I suppose that because only 20 are made and the unique "F22" styling drives the price up.
3. On the next door neighbor bit, somehow that does not make sense. If Lambo called him, he most be worth billions, simply because only 20 are made. PERIOD. At this point, I would think all 20 would already be spoken for by some mega rich moguls. IDK....

Unless your neighbor is on the Forbes top 100 richest people on earth, he's lying to you about getting that call. Then again that really does fit into the profile of most Lambo owners, they love to exaggerate and put themselves on a pedestal.

The best part of watching that TopGear segment is right at the end....

Pay attention...after giving the lecture on how the "V" is pronounced like a "B", he says "well it costs 800,000 pounds, but it'll get you a lot of "B/Vag..."
