Congrats Mike! Looks beautiful. I love the ML63. Wasn't a big fan of the old ML55 but this one I would def. rock.

When is the LP640 due? How did you spec it out?

Hi Phoenix, thanks. I too hated the old ML's - the new one is definately an improvement.

The LP640 scheduled for delivery at the end of February to early March.

I ordered the following on the car,
Car is Giallo Orion(Pearl Yellow), with black interior and yellow stitching with one or two yellow inserts on the doors.
  • Q-citura Interior
  • Leather rooflining
  • Bi-colour interior
  • Full Carbon Fibre interior package
  • Sat-nav
  • E-gear
  • Hemera wheels
  • Lamborghini Emblem on headrests
  • Carbon Ceramic Brakes
  • Transparent engine bonnet
  • CI badges in wheels
  • Yellow Calipers

Yes, those pictures were taken at my home. I would like to keep that private (i'm sure you understand why) - I'll post one or two snap shots as soon as the server allows me.

Thanks alex! I am still contemplating a Phantom.... but I would need to modify or build a new garage long enough for the LWB version. That is why I postponed my original order....
