Guy s i have a 2001 tt porsche 60k miles misha wing champion wheels on 19s runs and looks awesome black with grey int 6speed body perfect dealer wants to swap for a05 lambo gallardo 14k miles 6speedman black w blk int i give him 50k and porsche any thoughts on swap? Let me know thanks john

 

what are you looking for in a car?

 

If I had another 100k a year in income for maintenance and mods, sure I'd consider it

 

No ****ing way...

Your car is worth at least 40. Plus another 50k? So you are going to pay basically 90k for the gallardo... 05 is only the 2nd year, its old, sure its got low miles, but its for a reason... the **** breaks.

Finally, those arent all that desirable. IDK what they go for but I certainly dont want one for more than 70k... But I dont know much about their market.

 

really that much owner said he just spent 12k on major service and i only drive maybe500 miles a year in the porsche just bored with the car looking for something different i guess thanks for taking the time man john

 

just bored i guess the car is awesome 3rd turbo i;ve owned my935 was more of amonster to drive this tt is like a cad to drive my wife even rides in it she would not go near the 935 tooo radical for her wish i would have kept it!!!!! Thanks man john

 

yep 40k is what he said too butthe market is going up and my car has the mods spoilers wings h&r coilovers nice wheels and tire combo ithink i might just keep it and do some performance mods motor is stock except exhaust and yeah the gallardo is not the best lambo to buy just the cheapest if your looking for one and70k is way cheap for adecent one thanks man john

 

I'll probably do the same thing. Gotta scratch the itch. except an 09 gallardo with the forged motor. I know I've been spoiled with a Porsche and I'll probably regret the buy when I don't have the reliability anymore and way higher costs.

 

Manual G is a good financial move. $90k for a G with that mileage and stick is a good deal if the car is clean.

Maintenance on a G is no different from a 996TT.

 

I have 115000 miles on a stock clutch tuned turbo. Show me a lambo that has done that. I also got a new alternator from autozone for 175$ the costs are absolutely not the same.

 

I've had my 01 Turbo for nearly 10 years. Great car but I've had the same itches lol. I nearly sold mine to get an Atom. I'm a driver and want the rawness instead of refinement. Hard to say - let your butt decide if you can drive the Lamborghini.

 

Note the the early Gallardos were not that fast. A tuned 996 turbo is much fast. A mild turbo upgrade and it makes the Gallardo look like an mr2. The 5.0 Gallardo also have higher maintenance cost over the 5.2 as well as all around maintenance is more. You do get a little more of a cool factor though

 

What about a nice R8 V10 for 80 or so?

 

R8 V10 with a 6spd is a car I would trade my 996tt for with some cash on top. Gallardo does nothing for me...

 

good morning would have to agree the owner spent 12 k on regular maint clutch scary at that mileage i guess iam bored with the car they all look alike the mods the same as everyone else but the tt is a very nice car iam leaning on just doing some porformance mods what do you suggest i have astock motor with up graded ext thanks for your input john
