There are only 3 "display" SV's in the US (two on the west coast and one on the east coast) and I believe the LP650-4 and LP560-4 are the only examples in the US.

The 650 roadster was gorgeous...

I showed a few of the rolling shots I took on the way back to Manfred and he said that I'd gotten one of the first few action shots of the SV in the USA. Put a BIG on my face.

I have to say that the team from Lamborghini was one of the nicest group of people I've ever met. Very open and honest. Very willing to let you sit in the car, and pretty much have all sorts of access to the car while it was on display. Jason and I (as I'm sure a ton of others were) all over the car snapping photos and not a word out of them. Very cool!

There is the link to all of the photos. Again a big thank you to Tommy, Vic and everyone else involved in setting this up. I can only imagine how much it took to get this together and pull it off so smoothly.

Looks like you can buy them:
LB Performance will start to sell their Lamborghini Murciélagos in March 2009, they are scheduled to sell new parts for the Lamborghini Gallardo in April 2009. They will also be selling their Lamborghini ATV Buggy in April for $20,000.00. Please send e-mails to info@lbperformance.jp if you have any questions about their products.

Lovely photos, Hot Shot and Jason! Were both of you using 24-70mm lenses?

Just finished all of my photos, you can see them here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/jsitthi...7619028022696/

In addition to the ones I posted before, here's a few of my favorites. Consider it a timeline of the day, minus the discussion and drive to and from Salish Lodge.

I used the 24-70 for most of the day except for the engine and front/rear interior shot (used the 16mm fisheye for that). The 24-70 is my favorite lens.

SWEET SHOT of the S4 in action James. I saw the camera pop out of the Exige and I was hoping that the pic came out well!!!

Oh yeah, and all the other pics were cool too!

I'll have to get me a 24-70mm one day - is it good for an all-day walk-around lens?

Nice shots! I took a similiar one not too long ago


I use the 24-70 most of the time but it'd be good only if you have a full frame DSLR. I didn't see what you use. It's a great walk-around lens. I originally bought the 14-24 but found it to be too limiting for any real use so I got the 24-70 and haven't looked back since. I'm also glad you're finally posting bigger pictures too!

I've had the 24-70 for a long time. Was great on my crop bodies and even better on the full frame now.



Someone finally got a shot of me shooting. As you can see I had everything on me on Saturday. That's what I normally wear for wedding shoots, minus the Quantum turbo battery pack I use. 5 lenses, 50mm 1.4, 100mm 2.8 macro, 16-35, 24-70 and 70-200IS all 2.8L's.
