You are talking about a right-hand drive version, correct? The footwell looks much more cramped on those, when compared to the left-hand drive cars.
That really sucks because I know for a fact we have a dead pedal on the U.S. version. You would think that they would tweak the footwell enough on the right-hand drive cars to actually put it somewhere though. Shame on Lamborghini.

Drove the E-Gear today....
Going with the manual. E Gear was good, but nothing special. Standard modern semi-auto box. As the cars a weekend car made sense to go with the manual, plus it was in much much better condition and is the colour spec I really wanted.
Probably the last chance I will have to own a manual supercar so will enjoy it for the next few years whilst I can.
Will post pics when I get it delivered.

Awesome - you'll love it, I never tire of moving through the gate - just drove yesterday, what a pleasure. As others said, this is the end of the line for 6 speeds, and a 560 is such an amazing car, the combo will be rare, and a lot of fun! Sorry about the dead pedal, didn't think about the right hand drive issue, but you'll get used to it. The Lotus Evora in the US doesn't have a dead pedal, and like I said neither does my Cobra, and I'm fine with it.
Drive it in good health! You'll have a rare car.
