Getting cloth threads off the top

I've definitely considering getting a track membership for the car, btw. At autobahn, they give you about 20 extra tickets too. So it's not at all unreasonable to be 2 (or perhaps even 3) guys sharing a membership. But yeah, quite the sticker shock on initiation fee for Autobahn!

Some pictures of the car after a trip in the rain.. (yes, I did wipe it completely clean afterwards )

I know it's done for aerodynamics, but why-oh-why do they have to excentuate the flat area around the wheel arches on modern cars? ALL cars do it now, from Hyundai to Porsche and I hate it. It's especially unwelcome on an Italian body in my mind.

I've seen a few Gallardos in person and they are surprisingly small considering how imposing they are. Congratulations.

looks really really nice,congrats

Webster, those photos with the rains drops look really cool! Like the car is "sweating" after a hard sprint!

So what does the first service run on that thing? I have a buddy who collects Ferrari and some of his preventative maintenance service bills are about $4k-$7k depending on which car it is. Incidentally, he also has to ship his cars to Phoenix because there is no Ferrari dealership in Albuquerque, N.M.

Sigma, it's not bad at all. I believe the first service you have to pay for is at 10k miles.. and shouldn't be more than $1,500 tops. It comes with 2 years warranty. Unlike the Ferraris, you don't have to get the engine out to do major service. Which makes it all a lot cheaper.
