Gallardos cost about 1/2 of that right now.
I'd go with a Gallardo with LP bumper upgrade instead.
Plus Ferraris are unreliable

Clutches on E Gear's last about 10 to 12,000. My bud got about 12K out of his.

One thing to keep in mind is that the e-gear cars go through clutches like popcorn.

ive seen anywhere from 200-400 USD but as he's in canada i figured i would give high estimates.

If you buy one under warranty is the clutch covered?

That sounds like extremely lousy programming on Lambo's part.

I have never heard of an E60 M5 with SMG that roasts its clutch after 12K miles.

This interests me as well, I wonder what the costs are of a Gallardo vs. R8.

Man, I wish trying to decide between a Gallardo and a Scud. I totally agree on Verde for the Gallardo, but I think black (or darker) wheels make the Verde Lambos look much better.
