There are no Lamborghini models equipped with DSG. Do you mean e-gear? DSG is a dual-clutch transmission that operates a bit differently (two driven clutch packs, preselection of gears) from the e-gear system (sequential manual system).

this ride will expose you to unforseen and possibly deadly STDs. Therefore, just make sure you have enough money budgeted for jimmy hats.

I went to 6speedonline and learned less than what Seung told me. I made a mistake in the pricing ( an 05 is more like 160 k) and was raked over the coals by those aholes, expecially some new york watch seller.

I probably shouldn't get a lambo, I'm not enough of an ahole.
yea, that forum gets pretty embarrassing sometimes.
i know who you mean by the watch seller too, haha.
'05 for 160 k sound about right,
as so- so mileage '04 are 120 k or so usually.
don't get gallardo... just whatever cars imo.

wtf, you can get a Gallardo for 100k? where?

when i was looking 6 months ago, the 04s were going for 135-150 and the 05s were going for 150-170. i really wanted a 06 (much better) before deciding on the GT

The guy I know that owns a body shop does all the work for Ferrari of Dallas and the Dallas Lamborghini dealer.

According to him, and I asked him the same question you are asking now, they are pretty reliable, and heaps better than the old school ones. He also says he prefers them to Ferraris (he has owned those as well) due to the lower running costs. You need to find a Lambo forum and get to work, not much help you'll get on these forums, we are ordinary fools
which body shop? New Concept?
