Murci all the way...especially for a weekend car.
when I spot a 430 or a gallardo in town or coming down the highway i say..."oh look a 430 (or gallardo). When a Murci shows up slash comes down the highway its on a whole other level...its like a star destroyer coming down the road. its presence is unbelievable. (F430's and G's are sports cars...the murci is a supercar! people can argue that all they want but its true, whether the other two are sharper technically better cars or not.)
If you can find a relatively clean Murci with some miles on her but with a well documented service history (they are out there), it will actually treat you better than a garage queen that has just been sitting for the last 6 years. and for $150K what else could you get thats for...
1. a lamborghini
2. mid engine Natuarlly aspirated V12 (heaven)
3. 580HP (6speed or egear whatever your prefrence)
4. and lastly Looks like a murcielago!!! (i've seen Valets move F430's and park Murci's up front)
A murci will defiently be my next acqusition.

It's truly one of the best looking cars ever produced IMHO!

CS will depreciate the least and is probably the "purest" driving experience.
430 is a great overall sports car and does so many things well.
Murci is the one to buy and get noticed, but costs will be highest.
Gallardo SL is very nice and driving it would answer if it's in the running or not.
Also too consider that Gallardo 560 will get into your price-range maybe not too long and looks great and goes like stink.

Sad too think about, but also exciting at the same time.....because I lay awake at night counting LP640's and LP560-4's and it will only be a matter of time before they cross the $200k barrier.

This is a perfect example of Lambos.
20% more depreciation than almost every exotic and let's not get into the repair bills and time away from your garage. That's stupid.
Tommy himself has his 640 in this week for a "minor" oil leak. They have to drop the engine and it's a two week process away from him.
If he spends 150k on a 3-4 year old Murci he'll spend 15k a year minimum in repairs.
Falken I'd bet the Valet moved the 430 because he knew he could park the car and knew he'd hit something trying to back a Murci into a spot.
Our regions Lambo affecionado "Roy" even swears and dislikes backing his Lambo's into parking spots. He also has parked more of them than anyone else on this board.
