Jay is such a genuine and knowledgable car enthusiast. Ive only seen him, on the freeway and and he was a very polite driver, but every video ive seen he just comes off as a genuinly nice and friendly person, which is rare for somebody with his wealth. I can listen to him talk about cars and how much he loves them all day. He turns into an excited little kid over some old car i never even knew existed.
It's amazing how your taste change when you get older. When I was in my 20's, I thought the Countach was the ultimate car. I was blessed enough to have driven them on a couple of occasions. To this day, I still love them. I remember seeing the 350 GT and thinking it was cool, but it didn't have nearly the appeal that the Countach had for me. Now I'm 51 and I'm realizing that I'm more attracted to the 350 GT. The beautiful simple lines, gorgeous interior, Borroni wire wheels & functionality. It all makes much more sence to me now.... Happy New Year, Mark
Same as my friend . Starting to appreciate the bueaty of these cars. Sorry for spellling could not be bothered to go back and correct. Unforgivable for my old english teacher in the 70s .
Probably helped by the fact that the countach is bad for the 51 year old back and the 3500 gt looks like it would feel like a supple pair of leather gloves.
One thing that sticks out to me about Jay - he finds a way to put a positive spin on any car's shortcomings or quirks. Engine Block had a tendency to fall out? "I like a lighter car personally". Car catches fire warm days? "Well I always liked a bonfire once in awhile." In a world where folks seem to be on the hunt for something to complain about, I love this approach!
What an absolutely GORGEOUS car.. A true work of rolling art... Inside and out... Just beautiful.... The sound that V12 makes is pure automotive music to any car guys ears... I love the color combo, inside and out... Every inch of that car is a thoroughbred..
Really enjoyed finding and seeing this episode. I owned 1964 Lamborghini 350GT (chassis 0102 and engine 0111) way back in 1975. My understanding at the time I bought it was that it had become the oldest production Lamborghini in the world; the first chassis (0101) had been totaled in Arizona according to the dealer. A wonderful engine and a wonderful chassis, unusual styling. When I had it, the car was silver with red leather interior. I still remember the lovely sound it made as I flew on the open road in upstate New York with the revs up and the speedo showing 230 klicks. This was my car, photos taken then; the bottom photo of me driving was made by my friend Steve as we flew up the highway. I was 21 at the time ... I couldn't afford to keep the Lamborghini for very long, but I can still say that I owned and enjoyed it. :-)
In the late 1970's my brother bought a used Lamborghini 350 gt for about $4,600. I remember well the 12 cylinder engine, toggle switches, colored indicator lights, single windshield wiper & rear bench. Also had a double H 8 speed manual transmission, which Jay didn't mention, but even as teenager I was impressed. His car was gray when bought, but he had it painted white. No one had any idea what a Lamborghini was at the time, but he did have to have a lot of service done on the engine, to keep it running smoothly. Gas mileage was awful ( around 8mpg) and when alternate day gas rationing came to play under the Carter administration he finally traded it for a used Mercedes (which was selling for $6,700, so he thought it was a great deal). Obviously, you could retire on what this car costs now, but does bring back fond memories of the past to watch this.
I would be fascinated to know more about the 8-speed manual transmission. That must have some shift pattern and the linkage must have been absolutely mind boggling. May I politely suggest you are misrembering? Jay did not mention it because it does not exist.
I had never seen this model so well photographed and filmed, one can really appreciate the fine proportions and classic beauty it has. My favorite Lamborghini is still the Espada, but this is also great!
What a gorgeous interior, and exterior. Those wheels!! And prop's to the owner who let Jay drive it IN THE RAIN!! Thanks, Jay for letting the rest of us ride along with you and enjoy the driving experience of a lifetime!
I think the design is really modern. Everything behind the front wheels just screams "modern car" until you get to the headlights and grill (can you say XJ?). I love the cockpit look of the interior. (edit) Why didn't I see '62 vette the first time I saw it?
Mr. Leno during the eternity of Heaven I want to shake your hand and say thank you…until then review as many cars as you can and I will watch, watch, watch!
The early 350s has the original single lamp design. It’s the way the car was meant to be and one look at the single lamp and it all makes sense. Love the 350 and the bubble cockpit with signature heavily raked windscreen.
I really like these shows, although I no longer watch television, I was more of a David letterman fan late night, but after seeing these, minus corny writers and getting to know Jay for how he really is has made me a big fan. Dave is probably driving a prius
Beautiful car. I’m a car buff yet I had never seen one of these before. I love that this car isn’t parked in garage somewhere but is driven and enjoyed.
A beautiful car all around. Everywhere I look there is a nice detail. For example, I am really attracted to the shape/lines/style of the interior door grab handle. The Borani wire wheels look so stunning when spinning. The poor soul who will be cleaning the spokes after that drive in the rain.
Im a die hard ferrari fan yet i still do not see the point in picking a side in the rivalry. The cars were both made by the people of the region of modena they're the same people building the same cars, they had the same engineers, the same company made the pistons for both companies and others in italy, they even had the same rims and ferrari used touring for their early cars using the supperlagerra construction as alfa had. I love Lamborghini almost as much as i love ferrari. The reason i say almost is because ive got Ferrari in my blood and in my heart and soul where as i only have Lamborghini in my heart. Viva la automobili e italiana
thank you Jay, this I think is one of your best programs. This car really brought out the best of you as a car analyst, psychoanalyst? Yes, that's what you are; a car psychoanalyst.
Like Jay, the 1960's styling represents my 'boyhood' dream era--so this 1965 is my ideal of a classy touring car with a wonderful interior. I like that the owner/restorer added the metallic component to the original paint color. I have seen enough expensive Italian automobiles that look 'flat' about two years after purchase. Even quality wax doesn't seem to bring the paint back. While later Lambo's have 'in your face' styling they never had the appeal for me that this car has.
This is, without a doubt, one of the most beautiful, classic, underrated GT cars ever made ! ! Just stunningly sexy and svelte! HEY LAMBO............DO THIS AGAIN ! ! ! ! !
I wouldn't say underrated. Every classic car enthusiast knows this car was built as a vengeance to Enzo Ferrari, and that the Lambo was a better car in most aspects. Especially the engine. Most important part of any car back in those days, especially these GT/sportscar ones. The Espada is an underrated GT. Probably because of it's looks. I like it very much, it's weird and exciting. But i can perfectly understand that some people think it's ugly
17:21 ''believe me if you roll this car this thing would crush like a beercan. You would have a broken neck and you'd be dead'' Suddenly Andrew doesnt smile anymore 😂
That car is just the perfect GT Classic and in an amazing color spec.the 50s and 60s produced the best looking cars that are truly timeless and will always be special, low build numbers only add to that allure. Love Lamborghini history which is covered from the actual men on Davide Cironi’s amazing channel. Many interviews with all of the legends themselves who are more than happy to share the true stories behind these stunning early Italian masterpieces.
jay, i've been watching this show for a few months now, the more i watch this the more i wish you would be one of the lead host of the US top gear....you have the knowledge...hell you probably have the car lol...and you can do an interview a hell lot better for the star in a reasonably priced car.....love your series...thanks for doing this.
Always loved the look of the 65 Lambo 350 GT. A teenage rich kid in my neighborhood owned one back in 1966. I had to get by in my 66 MGB GT at the time and was a bit jealous.
Thank Jay for another expert understanding of what another class of cars represent in terms of history, drivability, excitment and ownership. Some of us are limited in our experience of car ownership. (My case; mid year/c2 corvettes, stock GM muscle cars and 911's, but looking to branch out to some euro classics so your perspective is very valuable.
Same as buddy . Love these old cars , even if they are a bit of work Im a truck driver who will be retired in a few years , so i want to get into my passion for classic cars. Hopefully.
11:32 gasp... listen to that backfire.... pop! music to my ears. had to listen to that several times. nothing makes me smile like those pops and whirs of old cars
350 horsepower in 1965 sounds unbelievable. Very beautiful.
Yes I think a ferarri of the period was making around 260-279 hp
Jay is such a genuine and knowledgable car enthusiast. Ive only seen him, on the freeway and and he was a very polite driver, but every video ive seen he just comes off as a genuinly nice and friendly person, which is rare for somebody with his wealth. I can listen to him talk about cars and how much he loves them all day. He turns into an excited little kid over some old car i never even knew existed.
he commands respect with his pressence without ever expecting it(so rare)
yeah I would agree
I've meet him a few times, he's a great guy. Nice and very happy person and very knowledgeable.
It's all in the editing. HAHAHA. jk.
One of the many reasons I watch these videos. No pretentiousness, no phoniness, no hidden agenda.
It's amazing how your taste change when you get older. When I was in my 20's, I thought the Countach was the ultimate car. I was blessed enough to have driven them on a couple of occasions. To this day, I still love them. I remember seeing the 350 GT and thinking it was cool, but it didn't have nearly the appeal that the Countach had for me.

Some things are like 'love at first sight', but some you 'grow to love'.
Same here.

@@pouyan225 Acquired tastes are frequently more appreciated and enduring.
This is legit, one of the coolest shows on YT. It never gets old. Just so pleasant.
One of the many reasons I love watching leno's garage is his humor that Italian impression is great .( the clutcha no good)
One thing that sticks out to me about Jay - he finds a way to put a positive spin on any car's shortcomings or quirks. Engine Block had a tendency to fall out? "I like a lighter car personally". Car catches fire warm days? "Well I always liked a bonfire once in awhile."
In a world where folks seem to be on the hunt for something to complain about, I love this approach!
I love the lines, curves, shapes, the polish and the especially sound. It's a work of art.
Wow, just a work of art. I love the paint, the wheels, the superb interior. Jay is one lucky guy to get a run out in it.

There was never an eight speed transmission in the Lamborghini 350GT. All of them had a five speed transmission.
Jay, you are a class act. The hardest working peson in show biz. I know you made this video at 5 AM
I had never seen this model so well photographed and filmed, one can really appreciate the fine proportions and classic beauty it has. My favorite Lamborghini is still the Espada, but this is also great!
Freaking gorgeous!!! Great body and lines. So sleek and the engine is beautiful. Interior is pure luxury. Million bucks
Looks like a Jaguar XJ-12...
Always good to hear Jay describe the era of the car, what was the norm and how each car fit in to it's consumer base.
What a gorgeous interior, and exterior. Those wheels!! And prop's to the owner who let Jay drive it IN THE RAIN!!
Thanks, Jay for letting the rest of us ride along with you and enjoy the driving experience of a lifetime!
Wow, this is one of the most beautiful cars I've ever seen.

(edit) Why didn't I see '62 vette the first time I saw it?
that salmon/ terracotta color leather interior is gorgeous
I love this car, it's actually my favorite classic Lamborghini Jay. Love the color and interior and the engine, love it!
Jay just loved all over this car. He was so full of praise in his comments that the guest finally just gave up trying to add anything.
Gorgeous car.
Had a 400gt in the shop i was working at and thought it was one of the most beautiful cars ive seen.
Love everything about that Lambo. Timeless classic.
This car should get a lot more attention,
It's a beautiful design.
To go from tractors to that is unbelievable, gorgeous car!.. First time I've seen one
Gotta love that windshield , art in every definition
That interior door grab handle is beautiful
Driving a priceless, mid-60's Lambo in the rain with the window down. Amazing. The rain actually added to the ambiance of the video.
And the single wiper is so cool.
OMG. The lines of that car are so elegant ! Perfect !
Thank you Andrew for bringing a perfect example of a gorgeous classic
Beautiful touring automobile with a character all its own. Thanks for the history lesson, professor Leno.
This and Jay’s Maserati 3500 gti are my favorites! I’m in love with this era of sports cars.
Amazing & So beautiful Car Lamborghini 350GTCar Old is gold
Cars My Favrat Car 👍👍 Thanks Nice Video 👍🙂😀
Absolutely gorgeous. Design seemed way ahead of its time.
Treu!
One of the best dashboards of all time!
Mr. Leno during the eternity of Heaven I want to shake your hand and say thank you…until then review as many cars as you can and I will watch, watch, watch!
Beauty- efficiency, one wiper, Jay just does comedy to afford his Love for cars.... and we are all grateful! Keep educating your poor folllowers
Such a beautiful design. The rear wheel well is a work of art unto itself.
Touring Superlegera...of course. What amazing looking car at 1965. Superb!
Love the interior of the Lamborghini...❤
That gray color is near-perfect for that car, really really gorgeous and subtle.
"no, we didn't scratch it and we didn't do a burnout" ha ha ha! very best Jay Leno comedy!
On camera anyway.
Jay starts talking about safety and guy started getting uneasy looking around like don't flip this please.
"Fine Jay", ''passenger'' , you are! Safety first!
It was hard to tell if they had seatbelts on, prior to '67 they weren't required, as I recall.
Jay Leno Lives the BEST LIFE a Motorhead/Gearhead could possibly live ... and Mrs Leno LETS him!
Ahh, on what a journey of life mister Leno has been!
Jay Leno has a top notch car automobilia show.......... right in his garage !
Wow it's so amazing how I've seen so many different cars just watching Jays show! Thank you Jay for sharing your passion of automobiles with us!
The early 350s has the original single lamp design. It’s the way the car was meant to be and one look at the single lamp and it all makes sense. Love the 350 and the bubble cockpit with signature heavily raked windscreen.
A great car then and now. Beautiful, fast, elegant. I'd rather have one of these than a new Lambo.
I Love Jay Leno's Garage. I wish there were more episodes.
Jay Leno NEEDS to be on Top Gear USA! This should be the top comment on everyone of Jay's videos. Maybe History will see it!
Gorgeous. Better than the blocks driving around these days.
Absolutely perfect color scheme for the body style.
I really like these shows, although I no longer watch television, I was more of a David letterman fan late night, but after seeing these, minus corny writers and getting to know Jay for how he really is has made me a big fan. Dave is probably driving a prius
Beautiful car. I’m a car buff yet I had never seen one of these before. I love that this car isn’t parked in garage somewhere but is driven and enjoyed.
One of the most beautiful cars built, unique styling and simply lush!
Jay was also once a new comedian, and is currently a classic.
A beautiful car all around. Everywhere I look there is a nice detail. For example, I am really attracted to the shape/lines/style of the interior door grab handle. The Borani wire wheels look so stunning when spinning. The poor soul who will be cleaning the spokes after that drive in the rain.
it's job security, wiping down and cleaning and polishing every inch of those 'display'cars is a never ending requirement.
Im a die hard ferrari fan yet i still do not see the point in picking a side in the rivalry.

Thanks to everyone involved in putting this show together!
thank you Jay, this I think is one of your best programs. This car really brought out the best of you as a car analyst, psychoanalyst? Yes, that's what you are; a car psychoanalyst.
I always loved this car and only have seen them in the magazine's it was really great to see it featured on this program.
Really amazing lines on 350 make me smile every time i see one......Art on wheels

That paint colour is stunning.
Gorgeous !!!😍😍
What a beautiful car!
The Lamborghini GT350 is beautiful!
God it's absolutely gorgeous!
Mr. Leno looks happier doing this than TV
He's in his element.
heartbreakingly beautiful...
jay leon garage is best show for cars
what a beautifull design... amazing lines and smothness for an old car.
Yes . . . What a beautiful auto !
This is, without a doubt, one of the most beautiful, classic, underrated GT cars ever made ! ! Just stunningly sexy and svelte!
HEY LAMBO............DO THIS AGAIN ! ! ! ! !

Beautiful Car. A real work of art. Thank you for sharing Jay!
"People were more responsible for their actions back in the days" Well described!
I have yet had the priviledge of seeing one of these in person, thanks Jay.
The Inside Was Beautiful 😍

I've learned more from this channel than any other. I love it. Beautiful car
What a bloody beautiful car, i've never really liked the lambo look, but this is a funky looking machine.
This car is a piece of artwork, idc what anyone says, this is in the top 10 of most beautiful cars
The European headlights made the fascia look so much better than the changeover headlights.
jay, i've been watching this show for a few months now, the more i watch this the more i wish you would be one of the lead host of the US top gear....you have the knowledge...hell you probably have the car lol...and you can do an interview a hell lot better for the star in a reasonably priced car.....love your series...thanks for doing this.

What a beautiful car. excellent restoration work.
WONDERFUL, thank you.
What a stunning car.Something about classic cars, so much more character than modern ones.
The 1963 350 GTV was even more beautiful
Thank Jay for another expert understanding of what another class of cars represent in terms of history, drivability, excitment and ownership. Some of us are limited in our experience of car ownership. (My case; mid year/c2 corvettes, stock GM muscle cars and 911's, but looking to branch out to some euro classics so your perspective is very valuable.
I like how much the wiper wipes on the windscreen
what I was thinking, works very well for one wiper on a big screen.
John Matthews i dont think i made my sarcasm very obvious :\
Sarcasm does not translate in text. 95% communication being non- verbal. But yes, the wiper is good enough.
I love how that Italian Ash Tray holds exactly One Ash.
Love. That. Car. It purrs like a Lion.
I like how at :38 Jay didn't even let the guy finish saying "thanks for having me".
I would rather drive this car over ANY modern car regardless of price.
Same as buddy . Love these old cars , even if they are a bit of work
Im a truck driver who will be retired in a few years , so i want to get into my passion for classic cars. Hopefully.
Well said!!
Absolutely. This car and the 67 Ferrari 330 gt
I love the guy's reaction when Jay starts talking about car safety... he looks suddenly worried, lol
HE'S A PUTZ. ONE OF THE MOST DRAB GUESTS JAY HAS ON THE SHOW.
Jay Leno, you are the man!
11:32 gasp... listen to that backfire.... pop! music to my ears. had to listen to that several times. nothing makes me smile like those pops and whirs of old cars
my God !...absolutely gorgeous !!!
