gallardo spyder maintenance cost?

can anyone offer up what to expect in regards to maintenance cost on a new lambo? i.e. how bad is an oil change, a tune up etc. I can already see the comments, if you have to ask, you can't afford it, but the maintenance cost varries greatly on exotics and want to get a real life feel of how bad is it on the lambo...

Usually clutch & brake jobs are the most expensive on those things.
And anything else that might require engine removal like water pump etc...
Routine maintenance shouldn't put a dent in your wallet, in fact you'll probably pay more for gas in a month than a on routine maintenance.

This should give you an idea of what to expect.

I had on o4' and have an o8' spyder on order. My experience was $850 for 7500 mi service. 4K+/- for a new clutch (including labor). As far as everything else, oil changes are minimal...$250 or so if you use the factory oil. I had no other problems with the car. It is truely an Audi and compared to a Ferrari it's a dream as far as maintenace costs go

Where did you buy your G's and have your maintenance done?

Thanks,
