Dammit lol, big congrats and enjoy it in great health. Definitely my next car, Gallardo's are awesome, i love them SO DAMM MUCH, recently ive been looking at so many on ebay/autotrader and so on. I know what you mean by the feel behind the wheel, its that true exotic feel, my turbo is amazing but doesnt have that special feeling you describe

Thanks for the great write-up and enjoy her in good health!

This past weekend I was having lunch with my firends in downtown Long Beach, and all of a sudden a yellow Gallardo (just like yours) pulled into the restaurant valet and instantly you could see that everyone that were seating close to window were all drawn to the car...this car has such incredible presence!

That is my favorite color for the Gallado. We have been toying with the idea of getting one since there is a Lambo dealer in MA now, I think its time for a road trip. Enjoy the car!
