My God those things are gorgeous!!! I've seen two so far. I saw one in person a few months back. I was doing my rounds (pool tech), and saw one waiting to make a left onto the street I was traveling along. I knew there were several stop signs ahead, so I strategicly maneuvered so he could catch up. We came to a traffic light both wanting to make a right turn, him behind me.... So I go around the corner and crawl with my window open, he come around the corner. I was going slow in the right lane waving a thumbs up at him, so he pulls side by side with me and grins at me (the 10 year old kid riding shotgun grins too). Then he floored it, ALL HELL BROKE LOOSE!!!! that thing screams.... I came right then and their, the aural assault and velocity at which he left me totally astounded me. The light ahead of us turned red and he pulled in front of me next to a brand new CLK convertible. Waiting at the light I watched as its side vents raised to suck in cool air at idle  . And the light went green.... boy did it go green  he was gone, around the bend like a bolt of lightening..... Oh and his plate was something like "UR2SLO" What a lucky guy.....

There's a guy who I talk to often who has 4 Lambo's. He had the first Marcielago ever produced made for himself. By the way, he's an inventor. He just invented some sort of device that gets impanted inside of a human body. He explained to me that an alarm sounds 15 seconds before a person will have a heart attack, so the person can call for help.

considering $150k will hardly buy you a 1 bedroom condo next to a housing project in boston, i'll take the Lambo and rent.

If something like a clutch replacement is going to scare you, then you can't afford the car.

Um...I think that is quite possibly sexier than my girlfriend. Wait...yes, yes it is. However, for that amount of money, there better be somewhere to stick it if you know what I mean. Or a toll-free number for a free escort service, 24/7. Yet I think that car may help even the fuggliest dudes pull P by the pound! How much trade-in do ya think I could get with my two tours, on one of those?

Dont buy something in Boston. 150k will grab you a nice house in a nice suburb anywhere else in the country.

no sh!t. it's more difficult than it sounds. especially when the spousal unit wants to stay here.
it looks like i'll have to settle for a mediocre $280k "house" near boston and then save up for a beach house somewhere reasonable.
some areas in MA had avergae sale prices increase by 100-150%!!! and i think only 5 towns had sale prices go down. every place else was up at least 10%.

I have one (same color) in my neighborhood. Have seen it numerous time cruising at 30 MPH. A total waste of money useful for posing only.
In Germany, on the other hand, one could actually drive the car.
