2008 Lamborghini Gallardo Superleggera *Arancio, Mint*

Year: 2008
Make: Lamborghini
Model: Gallardo
Price: $149888
Mileage: 9998
Color: Arancio Borealis
Private or Dealer Listing: Private Listing
Location (State): CA
Transmission: Automatic
Drivetrain: 4WD & AWD

OVERVIEW
This is perhaps one of the cleanest Superleggera’s left in existence and 1 of 46 in the highly desirable Arancio Borealis color. The car is in mint condition, was just serviced, and needs nothing. Clean title in my name. No accidents, no stories. It is lovingly cared for and stays covered in my garage on a battery tender. I have books, records, 2 working key fobs, the sought after “Superleggera” OEM car cover, tire inflator, and tools. Collector’s condition. Original MSRP: 246K.

Front lift
Navigation (updated 2012, not that anyone uses it)
High rear wing
Carbon interior pack
Rear view camera
Steel brakes (no CCB’s)

I intended on keeping this car forever but my tastes have shifted a bit since purchase and am now looking for a good home for it. The car is located in the beautiful Palm Springs area of Southern California.

VIN
ZHWGU43T08LA06742

HISTORY
I am the third owner. It was sold new from Lamborghini Dallas. I purchased the vehicle from a fellow enthusiast whom also took excellent care of the vehicle. The car was never tracked or driven in inclement weather from my knowledge. I have most service records from the previous owner and obviously all records from my ownership.

Owner 1: New to 4,902 miles
Owner 2: 4,902 to 8,612 miles
Owner 3: 8,612 to current (myself)

The car just received an annual service at Raging Bull Performance (the dealer alternative in Southern California). An e-Gear snap was done showing 82% clutch life remaining. I’m very careful about my driving habits and prolonging clutch life. Frank went over the car and it needs nothing. No CEL’s.

MODIFICATIONS
The previous owner performed a few tasteful modifications to the vehicle. It wears an updated LP-560 front end with carbon splitter which definitely freshens up the look of the car. It is also slightly lowered on factory shocks (I would say ~ 1/2”). The Scorpius wheels are painted gloss black and the calipers are painted Arancio Borealis. The car wears Bridgestone Potenza S-04 Pole Position tires that were installed 11/2015 and only have ~1300 miles on them. The front bumper, hood, fenders, side mirrors, and small bits behind the wheels are covered with clear bra. I currently have it in ‘free exhaust” mod mode but can revert it back if the new owner wants (you bet I kept the original OEM hose too). The car also has skid plates on the front bumper for protection. I also have the original factory front bumper (perfect condition) to go with the car if the new owner desires. It is currently hanging on my garage wall (stole the idea from the previous owner) and makes for a nice piece of art while there.

CONDITION
This car is in amazing condition. It is by far the cleanest SL I have seen. The paint shines beautifully (no swirl or love marks). I rarely use much water when cleaning it and always use the two bucket method when required. No dings, dents, scratches, or delaminating carbon fiber. All wheels are perfect, no curb rash, bends, or scratches. The carbon fiber rear diffuser is also perfect with no exhaust drip stains that I have seen on several cars. The interior is in equally amazing condition. The alcantara seats are in great shape (no rips, no stains) and the carbon fiber interior is perfect. The steering wheel is in good condition but the alcantara is matted down like all the others. If I were to keep the car this is the one thing I would change. The “Superleggera” side decal is a nice deep black and does not have the washed out appearance that many other SL’s have. I don’t park next to other people and only drive the car to areas where I can see it.

SUMMATION
This is a perfect turnkey example of a true limited edition car. Besides STS’s and 6-speed LP’s, this in my opinion is going to be an appreciating collectible Gallardo. Please do not compare this to less desirable colors, higher mileage cars, or those with heavily tracked or unknown histories. This is my second Superleggera and I follow the market closely, that said I do believe this to be the best example on the market and is priced accordingly. Let me know should you have any questions. Thank you.

Please No dealers, brokers, or wholesale offers. Lowballers will be ignored.
