Going to look at a couple G's this week

I have found 4 different 2006 Gallardo coupes.. 3/4 of them are in the 4-6k mileage area and the other one only has 1500 on it. Are there any specific questions I should be asking while looking at them? I am very interested in the 1500 mileage one and am trying to set up a time to have it inspected..Thanks

I can offer no assistance in this search, as I am not knowledgable enough, but I do want to say good luck on the search. The G is a beautiful car, and I am sure you will enjoy it.

Get Service records...
Has anything been fixed or repaired?
Has there been ANY body or paint work?
Has the car ever been tracked?

If someone is inspecting it. have them check the clutch, that's expensive to repair so the longer you have to not do it, the better off you are.

Don't forget to run the VIN on CarFax.

Carfax is a waste of time IMO, dealers have to pay to have incidents registered to carfax. check the tires, they need replacing every 5k miles, and clutch wear, especially if it is an egear

The g's are darn near bullet proof. So just get a good PPI and be sure you like the car. There were a few recalls on the 06 models for axles not being installed and similar. Just be sure those have all been addressed. Other than that just enjoy!
