Forgot to ask - anyone have experience with the maintenance on one of these? Is it Ferrari like in terms of cost? I have heard that the R8, which shares some parts with the the Gallardo is a bit more reasonable in maintenence costs vs Ferrari. Is the Lambo similiar? Just curious...

Price is a bit high....for a bit more cash you can find one with half to a quarter as many miles. Nice car, and would have no issue buying it if the price were a bit lower.

I concur with “On Your Majesty’s...” being the best... I also agree with Goldfinger being 3rd or 4th.

In space, no one can hear your tires squeal...

Seller is maybe thinking they can get a buyer who is a big fan of the brand and/or a collector to whom 80K is change stuck in the proverbial sofa cushions. I think if I were such a person with that kind of money I would rather find a much cheaper example and spend the money on restoring it the exact way I would want…

Hey, how about a little love for the guy who posted the video, eh?

But it’s my destiny to be the king of suede...

Best stealth fighter ever - after they built it, they couldn’t find it!

Was thinking that perhaps another good bet would be to buy a new or CPO diesel from a competitor. Any diesel car’s rep and price is going to take “collateral damage” from VWs mess, even if a different brand. I say its time to get that E250 Bluetec...especially if you can find an older one on CPO

Best MacGuffin movie ever...

I believe Axel was from Detroit...

All joking aside (the side view mirror has a bite taken out of it), it’s at least 10k or so higher than most 2004 Gallardos. CP

Uh....did you read my post? I didnt say no computers. What I am saying...the computer can be an autopilot and aid to prevent accidents, etc. Still want the human there when the situation is too complex or odd for the computer to handle.

Dude, ever hear of the Beagle 2? We’ve missed a couple times...

Funny, I thought it was a non smoking flight...

Many community colleges now restrict auto repair courses to just those getting their ASE cert or similar. I know none of the ones in my area let someone take an auto repair course unless they are “full time in the program”

A computer is going to consider the Hudson a “safe landing zone?” Not for quite awhile. Creative problem solving is beyond AI at least for a few decades.

So when you have a bird sucked into an engine right after takeoff, do you think a computers gonna land a plane on the Hudson? It’s more than just psychology...we humans are better than computers after the $hit hits the fan...

We had autopilots in aircraft able to fly planes autonomously since the 70s. The reason we don’t have pilot less aircraft is the same reason we won’t see fully autonomous cars anytime soon - they still can’t handle the odd, the unexpect, and inevitable system failures.
