Erik,

Not to deter you from your dream but, to ensure you are aware of some questions regarding the Murciélago before your purchase, check out the following web site [WARNING: Not for the Squeemish]:

CLICK! for "Lamborghini Murciélago," or "A Dream Becomes A Nightmare"

i'm surprised I looked through this whole thread! well, for me to take a picture of my car, I need to call our garage and have them pull out the car so that I can take a picture. That's the way it works here in NYC. sometimes it takes a 1/2 hr to get the car out. So no pics... but i've got an '06 Range Rover Sport that we keep in the city and an '82 Mercedes 380SL in pristine condition that I keep in a garage in southern california. Spent about 5 years restoring it and i'm just saving it. It was my father's car that I finally convinced him to hand over.

lardog,

Couldn't agree more!

For track days, I take out my Messerschmitt:

After driving a Honda Accord EX coupe for years, I just picked-up a CPO 04 BMW 325i sedan. No photos yet since it has been raining and I've been too busy on the BMW forums looking at possible mods.

I drive a 2005 Nissan Titan....no normal one, though. 6" suspension lift, 3" bodylift, Stillen supercharger, more mods than I can even go into. Needless to say, it surprises a lot of people when it flys by. About 575 hp right now.

My wife drives a 2004 Hummer H2 in red. Nice yacht.

We also own a '66 Vette, all matching numbers, 327/300

I don't have a pic of my car 'cos it's filthy, but it's a nice little BMW 118d (which i don't think you get in the US - well, you get the coupe, but not the hatch)

Anthracite Grey Acura RDX, steel blue Honda Element....I am in a Japanese place these days having left the Tutonic and Swedish world for the time being. I am AMAZED at the technical prowess of Acura and the seemlessness of the cars they make. I am a fan of the Honda world these days.
