Hahaha. No no, I did not mean that.
I just got a glimpse of the car and I THINK that it might have been this. As I was on foot that time, no questions of trying and chasing the car. The car was fast comparatively then!

Attaching a few clicks from today!
Even though I ed have my Gallardo in Verde Ithaca, she, undoubtedly is an absolute stunner! Blu Fontus + Cordelias = An epic combo! And that spoiler adds to the look! But IMO the Lamborghini script must have been in matte black, but again that hardly matters.

Its a matter of personal taste at the end of the day, isn't it?
It does grow on you and yes to each his own, but my comment was only for you using Cordelias and aftermarket in the same sentence

Reminds me of the Sesto replica, the script

I presumed that the Noctis was restricted to being visually different and was certainly wrong.
Can you shed light on how different it is from a normal Gallardo and/or is it similar to the Superleggera or SuperTrofeo in ride quality,handling etc

There are no differences between a Lp560-4 and the Noctis edition, other than cosmetic ones. "Noctis" or "night" is a special colour scheme. The Cordelias are available as an option on the standard LP560-4

Unfortunately there was no choice for the owner for color as only one Noctis made its way to India. The Lamborghini font was in silver when the car came and the owner had it painted.

She is visually different and ride wise she is as any other LP560-4 or 570-4. The superleggera and the STS are both different cars to the Noctis, in fact i feel the STS is different than the Superleggera as well in their ride and power delivery. The Noctis handling is just like any other lamborghini, precise and spot on. Ride quality is fabulous with the suspension soaking everything thrown at it with comfort. One ride in the car and it makes you feel like you can use her as an everyday car, but the realities of traffic and people going mad trying to take pictures from cars and bikes soon makes you change your mind.

Rightly said..one can recreate the car with the options provided by Lamborghini. The Noctis was available in different colors and in India the Blu Fontus. The Cordelia wheels are available as option for the gallardos and was standard for the noctis and is standard for the India edition lp550-2. Incase ones not aware, John Abrahams LP550-2 was optioned with the Cordelia wheels and he changed them to the Callisto high gloss black wheels on his black car.

If one chooses to recreate the Noctis looks its simple. Get a Gallardo + front and rear 2013 bumpers + Cordelia wheels + trunk spoiler.

They wouldn't really be creating a Noctis if they did that. The Noctis doesn't come with 2013 bumpers or a trunk spoiler. The Gallardo + Cordelia wheels + the special paintjob is needed to recreate a Noctis. Unless of course they want to recreate this Noctis, in which case the rest can be added.

I thought since you mentioned the ride quality prominently in your post, there would be a difference.

I was refering to recreating this Noctis's looks, i am aware what the noctis came with originally . The noctis does not use special colors but standard colors available for the gallardo's. If one chooses to do the silver or any other color just like the Edizione tecnica models it is very possible. I believe only the Performante spyder edizione tecnica"s Rosso Mars (red) is not available as standard on the gallardo's.


@ ///RMAN, when you compare the ride to the older gallardo's and also to the previous generation superleggera's the 550-560-570's are miles ahead. Compare both the old and the new superleggera's and there is a vast difference. The older gallardo's had a harsh ride, felt bumpy and your back would start to hurt, the new generation cars make you feel like you are in a luxury car with brute power..

Speedy, by Verde I was referring the regular Gallardo. A Noctis with the silver and black roof would sure look awful Verde

The Noctis looks splendid in the way its is!
