I'm so glad to see all were LP-560s.

I don't think the 640 would be practical for Indian roads, but then again there are many Murcielagos and other more powerful exotics out here. Pricing is also a factor, i'm sure. Lamborghini is aiming for volume sales with the 560 in the Indian market and the yellow display car is an Indian market homologated 560-4. The car i drove(in pic) i found the 560 to be more than adequate. I admit i'm a biased Lambo fan. Meself in pic below tryin' to get a grip on things before the drive.

I was appreciating LP560 in comparison with older gallardo. I personally don't get attracted towards 640.

So you drove the lambo too... great. Share a review.

Pakistan mei pata nahi kab aye gi lambo. Website pe saja k rakha hei k launching in Pak but no car on roads yet... :S

Whaddya do with a V10 560bhp beast?. I tried to whoop it and i almost fell off my rocker. What is amazing is the traction this car has , especially in sport mode.Took me a bit to get used to the gear shift(odd) but tha'ts my only gripe. I prefer a traditional shifter. What floored me was the thrust.I got a rush and that in itself was the experience for me. I was giddy and needed a tonic after the drive. Lamborghini had tonic of all colors and potency levels at the bar, plus a decent buffet spread for lunch and t-shirts and other compliments for guests at the end of the day. Not bad at all. Last year i had posted photos from the Ferrari Road Show at a beach resort near Madras. I hope you checked it out. Ferrari had only two Scagliettis there but FIAT had the 500 and a wierd looking utility vehicle. Anyways, hope you like the pics in this thread. Cheers!

Glad you like the pix. re: face - Nope. Someone i don't know and that's why i blacked out the face.

Mucho gracias to the the MMRT for allowing folks to burn the tarmac and for the first time i came upon the foundation stone of this place while lolling around. Interesting!. Next year the MMRT is getting a track and infrastructure facelift supervised by the FIA which is also getting the F1 track in Delhi ready for the 2011 debut. Lots of exiting stuff happening in the motorsports scene over here. Thanx for your comments.

Nice pics man! I still haven't had the chance to drive the LP560 but to be honest, i'm still stuck on the Superleggera. I want to give the new Balboni a shot before it starts snowing here.

nickatnite (nickatnite) 2009-11-20 02:37:49 +0500 #33

Thanks!. I luv the Supeleggera too. I've taken a ride in the car in the pic and loved every minute of it.
