Hi guys,

I've been lurking this site for quite sometime now.... decided to become a member.

A little background: I've come from the import crowd (s2000/350z) and love to track. My dream as a kid was to always own a Lamborghini

I've had the good fortune of doing well at my job and in the spring of 2011 I'll be most likely picking up an 08 Superleggera then. I never thought at the age of 27 this would happen but it seems like all the hard work has paid off!

Anyways, I've done a lot of research on here and a few other enthusiast forums for Lamborghini's; Here's a few questions I have for future ownership:

• Will the Superleggera be in the $140-150k range in spring 2011?
• What in depth criteria should I be looking for maintenence wise e-gear vs. 6 speed (rare I know)
• Reputable dealers in Ontario Canada (other than Lamborghini Toronto/BC) that someone has experience with
• Cost of ownership--Will be doing 6-8 track days a year plus weekend driving (yes even in the rain and possibly cold)

I live in Ontario, Canada so it won't be daily driven but I will be putting KM on via track/weekends.

Thanks in advance! Glad to be part of the community.

Wow... tough crowd here

I've been eyeing stock Gallardo's as well (price point seems to be much much lower).

I know many people here go through Roy.... but does anyone else have any good avenues (US/Canada) that I should check out?

I went onto the RIV govnt site for import fees, etc to Canada.

Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
-Steve

 

I dont think it is a "hard" crowd..

I think it is the car you have in question..

The SL car is far and few in-between currently...and with the supply low and the demand higher then the supply for this variant of the car..$140K is not going to get you one...well at least not one in decent shape.

You need to prepare for closer to $150-$155K USA fees.

 

Hmmm I see your point Roy. I wouldn't mind having a regular G (I prefer the 6 speed manual over egear).

This spring is the target for a purchase.... would you be available to chat on this sometime? I can PM you what i'm looking for colour wise/options, etc.

I'm aware of the changes from 05 to 06.... just wondering if the extra $$ is worth the jump.

Regards,

Welcome to the 6 dude. Roy is a stand up guy and I'm sure he can find you your perfect lambo! When the time comes and you get your car, make sure pictures circulate. We love pics

 

I definitely will Torn, thanks.

It's funny... I started poking around at exotic car dealerships recently and an old friend actually offered me his toy (he's upgrading to a house on the lake).

996 Turbo S 6speed (2005), 15km every option imagineable..... the car is crazy fast (tuning done by EU Autowerks) 650hp.

Problem is I've always been a Lambo nut ever since I was a little kid...had all the auto art models

For me it's not just about power...but the experience! I think Lambo has that nailed down with its boisterous personality.

 

Roy, just sent you an E-mail
