That car used to live right near me. And its twin still does. Very impressive color (as well as car) in person! Enjoy it!

How does it drive or more specifically,how does it feel when you drive around town? Heavy and tipsy or surprisingly nimble for a car of it's proportions..? I'd like an individual review and not in comparo with the Gallardo..

Thanks.
I have had the two back to back. Won't comment on the G as you asked. The Murci is a tank. A beautiful, fast as he$$, tank. It handles REALLY well in the hands of a professional. But if you aren't and you try to drive it at anything near the limit it will bite you something fierce! I don't think the word boat is applicable though as that implies it has poor turn in etc. That simply isn't the case. It turns is super quick, but since you sit so close to the fornt of the car vs. the amount of car in the back it is difficult to gauge how far or when the back end is coming around.

Saw in your sig you have one on order. You will not regret the purchase one bit!

Thanks man,I was kinda concerned about the handling of the car,but your logic sounds right. Will keep everyone posted here about the delivery of the LP and my impression of it,as it is a big leap for me from the 997 C2.
