PA001 is infamous around these parts
they designed the top 1000000X better than the Murcielago... Why can't they do the same for the Murcielago?

The Murci Spyder is flawed(looks and performance with top up) and the Gallardo Spyder will not be offered with the clear engine bonnet as an option and does not look as good IMO or perform as well as the coupe(whereas the F430 Spyder looks even better than the coupe version & performs nearly as well).
Tell that to the Ferrari 575 Barchetta, and how do you know how well the new Gallardo Spyder performs? No roadtests in print. 430 is dog ugly.

that's just a retarded statement. it's one thing to say you don't like it, but i'm quite sure 99.9 percent of the people would not call it ugly. this is so typical of you. you can almost set your watch by it when there's a lambo thread. lambo rocks, everything else sucks.....blah blah blah.

It is called my opinion. The 430 is dog ugly. I hated the 360, and now this a riced out 360, that sits taller, looks worse, and even sounds worse. I would rather have a Porsche 996TT coupe over a 430 Conv. Inmo, no ifs ands or butts, other than some parts in the interior, the 430 is plain old ugly.

Alan,

Do you think the G-Spyder will perform as well as the G-Coupe?
The 430 Spyder performance almost matched that of the coupe in Top Gear's road test of the two cars.

Also, do you see someone coming out with a clear engine bonnet for the G-Spyder in the aftermarket? I just think it makes the car.

I agree with you that the G-coupe is nicer looking than the 430 coupe but not so sure about the convertibles.
The performance should be very similar to that of the coupe, as it has 20hp more, and shorter gearing. As for the clear decklid, as of now no plans for one.

After the 993TT, everyone complained the 996TT was too watered down. The 997TT will be all that, and thensome.

Nah, not really. 993TT is a far more enjoyable car to drive.

Maybe to you, I would take the 996TT over the 993TT. Than again, I will take my 965T over both.
