Yeah, I stood next to one once. My penis grew an extra four inches for a total of five inches!

That's probably going to get you an "improperly used" one. You can burn thru that extra dough pretty quick and then you still have a under-average Lambo with probably more than average miles. maybe a low mileage Countach is a better bet.
Actually a Ferrari TR512 would be an overall better net than the Countach or the 355 that was mentioned. The 355 is certainly going to be a friendlier car to use and way less expensive to operate. No Diablo convertibles either.

Re: Lamborghini gurus
You will need either a VERY early 90's diablo.. A mile'r...or something abused for $100K or under. My wife and I just sold ours last month for 1 3/4 that price. It was a 97 and a half, one of a kind color from Lambo, and I had a clutch and full service done before selling it. It was nice having the car, but a little too much attention. It always would draw a crowd, and every punk with a rice burner and a wing would pull up about 6 inches off the door and want to race. Like I said... it was fun to have, but I dont miss it one bit!
