My opinion on the Gallardo has changed....

If has chrome wheels those are not OEM. Take a photo if you can. I can see where the blue with chrome might work. The blue is gorgeous on its own I almost bought the blue instead of my Rosso Metis but it had a cream/white interior and is not practical for me.

 

Yep, thought the exact same thing when I first saw the pics, then my brother took delivery of his a few months ago and I was in awe. It looks great in person and even better on the road.

In all honesty, the same thing happened (to a lesser degree) with the 360.
The first time I saw that in pics was on a flight to Miami in the late 90s. I thought it was nice, but not as pretty as the 355. Of course when I saw it in person and on the road, I couldn't believe how beautiful it was. Since then, I've learned my lesson in judging a car from pictures only.

 

Doug, impressions improve even more once you drive it! It's a great car that is really a step ahead of the 360 (but I still love the 360 as well).

 

never judge a book by it s cover, or its pictures!!! i know it doesnt make sense but i am i the middle of a real crappy day... i cant make any sense..the g car is slowy growing on me , i think i like the styling better than the 360 coupe but i am still partial to the 360 spider and the murci and diablo

 

Yeah, I posted before that I was kind of unimpressed with pictures, then I saw one in pearl yellow in March and was taken by its beauty. Since then I've seen a few others and it's had a chance to sink in. The lines look better in person as pictures don't give a sense of the compact size and the angles, as seen by someone standing in front of it.

Here's one in the non-pearl yellow:

 

All right guys, knock it off. I had just decided not to get the G car, to get an SE or SV, and now this thread. It is a great looking car in person......

 

same here. didnt think much of it when lambo released official photos..but then checking out the cars in person i was much more impressed....then i saw a silver one, and i honestly think because of how angular it is, the gallardo looks the best in silver.

 

I agree, it's a great looking car in person. I sat in one, and I liked the interior as well. I like it in black.

 

Same thing happened to me. The pictures did excited me but not all that much. It just looked new and fresh. But then I saw the car in the flesh late last year when I still had the 360M, and a few more times lately. Now? A 3-layer Pearl Orange G is sitting happily in my garage. And I am a very happy man now.

 

Thats my color!! Pics?

 

Hey AJ - this might interest you !

 

It does!!. Now we need a wing, and some roof induction scoops, and I want one!! Make mine orange.

 

Here is the only pic I can post in here at the moment. I'm taking more pictures during this weekend and will try to post more early next week. Sorry. This pic was taken the day I picked up the car from the dealer, two weeks ago. Sorry I have to put you through a link. The pic is not in my notebook.

I changed my opinion of the Enzo, Gallardo and Murcielago after seeing one in person.(for the better)
