Beautiful color! I see someone has been spending time off Roswell Rd. I get my TT serviced down the street at RSMotorwerks.

Yes, these were pictures of the car here at the dealership on Roswell Road.

Thanks for all of the compliments about the color. I really like it.

I am not really for publicly sharing the prices paid for cars. As the cars age the valuation of each one is based on service history, ownership history, and condition more than what similar cars have sold for. It is very easy for any exotic car to have a five figure repair bill soon after a purchase and that should be a much stronger factor in defining a value than market comps.

Here are some pictures from the trip to Miami - http://edbolian.com/?p=1518

That one is Matte White. There are 3 different white on the Aventador and Murcielago - Bianco Isis (flat White, AKA Bianco Monocerus on a Gallardo), Balloon White (3 layer pearl), and Bianco Canopus (Matte White).

The other Aventador in that line is Arancio Argos, the new reddish orange. That is our first customer car. The white one is our demo. Here are some more pictures of it.

beautiful car! If you don't mind me asking. How is the gallardo's reliability after 50,000 + miles? I have seen the 04 gallardo's come down pretty nicely in price the past couple years

The reliability has been excellent. I have been driving the car daily since September and it has performed beautifully. The only two issues that I had were a slight coolant leak from the hose leaving the reservoir (easy fix) and some issues with the brake light bulb contacts. I decided to replace the tail lights for that reason as well as a personal preference for non-tinted lights.

It is cheaper to insure than my S55 was and it has been cheaper to maintain that it was. This is my second 04 Gallardo and you really can't go wrong with them at the price point where they are now. They don't seem to be going down because when people start looking at buying a Gallardo for the same price as a new M3, it becomes a pretty appealing option!
