Nope. Simply pointing out that Azzrod does nothing but troll other people's posts.
This just happened to be the 3rd thread I saw him trolling, so I commented.
Why so interested in me, and my motivations? I'm glad that my posts are so important to you. Thanks!

wow, this is an old thread, but probably worth revisiting considering where gallardo prices are right now.



my wife previously wanted a vantage, but now she wants a Gallardo as a DD.


i dont think there is a problem with the reliability of the car, but i think it will garner her too much attention, and she doesn't work in the best neighborhood. i fear what will happen in her parking lot. i think a jaguar sedan was stolen from it a couple of years ago.


she says if she gets a boring color maybe nobody will notice it. but for awhile she was driving my silver 996TT, and she told me everyday she heard a comment about the car from someone at work. so people will notice it.


so, i don't think its a good idea for her. i'm not sure the vantage is a good idea either. oh well, we'll see. when the gallardo becomes a 60 or even 50k used car, it maybe worth the risk.

I use my G as a DD

The only draw back is the attention. I get even more attention because I'm fairly young(29) and have my 10 month old sun strapped in the passenger seat quite often.

I actually use the car during the week and put it away for the weekend because the misses and Connor can't all ride at the same time. I hate to admit it but after driving it all week I look forward to the low key SUV that no one stairs at

I recently got a nera black LP560-4. I use it as a daily driver. However, I have 4 other cars which are all used as daily drivers, so I basically drive my "daily driver" lambo once a week. It wont effect maintenence costs unless its your only driver.

and supply a car seat specifically for the car. They actually thought it out pretty well and designed in a hook behind the passenger seat for the the car seat to hook two ways. Of course I turned off the airbag.

definitely something to do. i would drive a G as a dd. I just prefer bentleys. i will be driving my bentley gt as a dd in the next couple of weeks. :-)

a lambo definitely gets more looks than a bentley. someone (lil raja) once told me that driving a lambo was like being in a circus show as everyone stares and waves lol. i think a bentley is low key but my wife thinks everyone stares at us.

Yeah, Bentleys have more of luxury look whereas the gallardo just screams "look at me"

LOL i've never been in a gallardo but do people actually wave? haha that'd be awesome!
