Thanks for the Input guys!!
Is this the only series in which Lambo races??

And by seeing the website I could make out that its a one make series. So how do they becnhmark their cars with others?? How are they managing to make such great cars. Even there parent Audi I guess is only part of Le Mans 24 Hr races...

The Super Trofeo cars are made entirely by Lamborghini. Blancpain, the watch maker is only a sponsor and hence have their name attached to it. They do not provide any tuning to the cars.

Also, the Super Trofeo Stradale is the ''Road-Going'' version of the Super Trofeo Race car and has nothing to do with Blancpain.

I head the Lamborghini Mumbai dealership for Sales and Marketing. The Verde Ithaca Superleggera was sold by me. Also, I was at the factory in Sant'Agata Bolognese last month and I have seen their engineers work on Super Trofeo Gallardos.

Re: Green Lamborghini LP570 Superleggera in Mumbai!

Saw the thread title and was skeptical about how would green look on a Lambo. But this one does look fabulous!

Mumbai is becoming a hotbed for supercars.

Thanks for sharing.

Re: Green Lamborghini LP570 Superleggera in Mumbai!

This looks like an absolute beauty. Never thought the Green would match it so well. But on a personal preference, I think the White color with those rims would match it better. Happened to see a white one in Mahalakshmi a year back and it was really looking stunning.

BTW, how do these guys avoid the bumpers in the city?

That Superleggera didn't exactly take off. I suspect that's because the owner is concerned as she is pretty much new. Pictures show she hasn't even had permanent reg. done!!

re: Green / Verde Ithaca Lamborghini LP570 Superleggera in Mumbai!

Well, the Superleggera is one MIGHTY car. Just that i may not work for long on Indian roads, unless there are suspension mods on it.
the indian roads are not at all fit for cars with low ground-clearance. I own a civic and i face enough problems, the superlegger is a lot more lower and id rather not talk about the service charge or repair costs if the axle breaks!

Both of them did not take off as it was not a drag race or any sort of race, it was just a pleasure drive that we went for. Both Lambo's are on temp plates and that has nothing to do with how you drive them. I was with them in the BMW and i was able to keep up with them..let me again state it was a pleasure drive on a sunday afternoon and not a race or anything on those grounds.


CLS 55 AMG i would have a word with you in person regarding certain things i noticed on a certain car that was brought to the dealership on Monday...I dont think it would be right to ask U the questions on the forum as i think you'd find it hard to give answers here.

Re: Green / Verde Ithaca Lamborghini LP570 Superleggera in Mumbai!
