06's are in the low 120's and high teens. I would wait a few months as winter approaches. These cars will be close to 100 by then and the 07/08s will be in the 120K price range

 

Are you talking coupe or Spyder, as I again have not seen the spec I am looking for at that price point.

 

i've just started my search for an 06 gallardo coupe and have seen a few on ebay in the $110 price range so i'm going to wait it out until early 2010 to see if they drop into the high $90's . also this may help you with your pricing:

Manheim means nothing to the man on the street. Also surely the dealers have to pay more than this to actually get the car to their lot, ie transport, delaer auction fees, prep, correcting faults etc. Anyone have an idea of roughly what the 06 spyder mentioned above would actually stand the dealer in at to put it on his lot. Also a lot of these cars that come on the block we do not know the history of.
I am looking specifically for a one owner car from that owner with a low mileage, high spec, no stories etc etc not some car that just seems to have a clean carfax.
It is this type of car, the cream of the crop that is hard to find that makes all the money.

 

those #'s are just a point of reference for you in making your decision. i would guess on average the dealer would pay $5K or less to get the car ready for resale on this type of car.

there have been a couple of 06 spyders on ebay if you are interested or just to see how much they may bring in:

Signing on in case someone sends a link to a good car deal. In the market for an 06 as well but really anything that is smoking...in a good way.

Cheers.

I believe there will be plenty of Gallardos to buy. Florida and California are two states doing financially terrible and a lot of Gallardos live in those states. I do not believe I have seen more than 1 or 2 Gallardos in San Antonio Texas. There is not a dealer so that might be a reason.
