Dad and sister went for the luanch, I havent heard back from them yet, but seems like 3 people were given keys at the launch as my wife spoke to my sis, one chandani chok sari guy, some orient fan guy and some one else..

anyhow..its cool to see stuff here, but LP640 man...thats awesome...3 crs seems a little exsessive dont you think, considering the murcielago is only 60% more expensive than gallardo in UK, so if the 1.65 cr price is right then murcielago should be a little under 2.7 cr, anyhow at that price it doesnt matter if its a C class up or down

Actually the LP640 is tagged at 190,000 pounds, which comes to 400,000 with the customs and taxes, which is roughly 3.5 crores!! And im sure it cost more than that with delivery charges, road tax etc etc. The guy has just got too much bloo... money!

what you forgetting my friend that 190 is not the price, its the price with vat, so the price comes to 160 GBP - 165 GBP * 2.04 for duty and then 8-9% road tax and insurance I believe which comes to 3 cr on road for the LP640 so the regular murcielago which is 15k GBP cheaper should be about 27-30 L cheaper, like i said before..

This is how a Lambo will be driven -

1st gear......horn:horn.......2nd gear.......BRAKES!..........(back to 1st gear)............2nd gear ..........BRAKES!.........1st gear.........2nd gear......horn:horn........3rd gear.......BRAKES!!!!!.....*REPEAT*

I doubt ownwers will ever get to break in the 6th gear.

Hmm...not the smartest thing todo? If you know these guys, you should tell them to spend the money a little wisely, if I had to get 2 full size sedans I would have bought a 760Li and S550 or if I just wanted to spend the money then I would have got the Rolls instead of the 2, considering they would only have to spend a little more to get it...or gotten the S65 AMG..
