Re: Lamborghini gurus
I'd pony up for a new Corvette Z06 for that kinda money, and be able to spank the Diablo.

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!
Ahh yes, the worst part. Unless you truly enjoy being constantly engaged by "regular people" this isn't the car for oyu. That is unless you live somewhere where they are an everyday occurrence. These cars are magnets. Unfortunately the a$$hole to pretty-young-girl ratio is somewhere around 50:1 |

The Diablo is in a different league. You don't get a Diablo to race. It's a status car. Valet a Diablo at a club and a Vette. Who gets more attention ?

Re: Lamborghini gurus
Nelson Lamborghini of Ohio are great ppl. We have bought 5 Lambo's from them.
We had a 94VT new. If you find one driven well, they are a great ride. We also had a 97. The new Gallardo and Murcilago are nice. Ask for Ron Frost at Nelson if you call. 800-606-9595 Tell them Craig Vanderwall Sr, and Jr sent you. They won't treat you wrong |
Re: Lamborghini gurus
I had a '91 I bought new from Kerbeck.
At 3,000 miles, out of warranty, while sitting at a stop light it suddenly started running rough. Wouldn't rev over 4,000 after that. What happened? The timing chain "slipped," and all of the valves on one bank of cylinders were bent. A $10K repair. Oh, and on the day it was delivered (New Years Day 1992). the gear shift linkage "locked-up" several miles from home, the very first time I drove it. Had be put on a flat-bed and trucked to the Lambo dealer 150 miles away. Had to be hauled away by flat-bed 3 more times because of electrical problems. I sure a hell would NOT buy an early 90's Lambo! :mad: :mad: |
