I feel your pain... But it is a bright yellow Lamborghini! Who wouldn't want one, at least for a little bit 😉
100% - I will never ever regret having it, and despite my gripes mentioned here I definitely can say no car ever felt that cool or had so much emotion. I truly miss it for those reasons!
Lamborghini Gallardo drive was my first V10 experience. It was one of the best driving experience in my life.
I bought a 2011 LP560-4. Your comments are totally correct. I put 10k kilometers on my car in one year! NO issues.... Yes $100.00 cdn per fill up and yes it is expensive to operate but when I look in my garage, I pinch myself. Mine has normal seats and very comfortable!! Just love mine. I have heard all the comments about the 04-05 and your experience appears normal!
Glad you are having a great experience with yours! If high gas prices are the only complaint, that’s great. Hoping to ride in an LP car at some point shortly just to experience the differences!
My take on this is that the Gallardo is an entry level exotic, very popular with young TH-camrs. Its very hard to find a car that hasn't had but one or two owners. And then, even that can be a false tale. One Gallardo I passed on because it was 'rough" went thru FIVE other used car dealers before being bought by a private owner. That will not show on the CarFax BTW as the cars never get titled, just run on dealer plates. Lots of deferred maintenance in this scenario, It's easy, when you are young, to be caught up in the emotion of owning an exotic. Logic comes with maturity. Sayings like "There are no cheap Ferraris (or what ever exotic you like)" or "Buy the best car you can afford" ring true. You can afford to buy an exotic, but can you afford to own one? BTW: I have a trouble free '06 Gallardo.
I agree with your sentiment Dave. I always scout the car market and frequently see cars trading hands of dealerships and private owners. It’s easy to see deferred maintenance snowballing on cars like that for sure. My cars previous owner had it for three years. It’s important to know as much about a cars history as possible for sure. Enjoy your 06 car, sounds like a great driver!
I think there are more issues with the 04-05 cars for sure. I've had an '07 G for a little over a year now and have only have one real issue, replacing gearbox speed sensors which was about $300ish. Clutch wear has also been good, have driven 5,000 miles in a year and the clutch has gone from 52% to 48% so at that rate I'll never have to replace it. I do agree that it is a 'violent' ride, and my wife hates how it feels (except for all of the attention we get lol). If you're worried about gas prices then...yeah, wrong type of car.
Thanks for watching Marcus, appreciate it! Glad you are enjoying your 07, I hope it continues to treat you well! 1% of clutch wear or so per 1,000 miles is not bad at all! You’re driving it well. I miss the car for the attention and fun of sharing it with others a ton. It also made me smile like my 10 yr old self whenever I drove it (when it worked at least) lol. Is your car orange? I believe I see it in your profile picture.
@@sgfreak96 I love the sound of it, I have a sweet Soul exhaust and test pipes and it is super loud. You have to keep it in Sport mode and keep it rolling so you don't slip the clutch much. I do feel like a big kid driving it, and I love the reaction from actual kids. They lose their minds so that's fun. I have done more self-maintenance on this car than I have any others I've owned. Most things are easy to access like spark plugs. My car is the pearl orange and I have some black wrap on the roof and in the back. My plan is to keep it for a couple more years and then upgrade to a Murci or newer Huracan. I did a full PPI on the car before purchasing, which I think is critical so you know you're getting a good car.
Awesome video, well done. Owning a Gallardo can and usually is everything you said. The concerns are spot on. You made the best decision for you based on your needs I like that. One day maybe you'll get another and enjoy it more, but you can say now you did own one and be a good advocate. Happy motoring. BTW, love my 07 G and it's always a work in progress, cheers!
Great advice, Its really not the cost of the car but the unknown is the repair of the vehicle and down time on obtaining parts and also finding a reputable shop to perform the repairs correctly the first time.
Happy New Year! Wow, definitely quite the experience with the Gallardo. I guess that's what comes with the dream. I do personally think you need another R8 for 2022.
Happy New Year to you as well! Sometimes your heroes aren’t all they cracked up to he haha. I honestly think I’d try another Gallardo if it were an 06+ car just to experience the gearing. R8 is top priority right now though!
Sorry to hear about your bad luck with the Gallardo Chris ☹ Hindsight is always 20/20, those experiences are the best to learn from though! Maintenance is exactly why I went electric (for a daily) 😅
Dude, thanks for checking the video out! Once I have a nice garage with an outlet I’ll probably go the EV route for my daily, I’m jealous of your Model 3! Hindsight is definitely always 20/20 lol
Im sorry you had a bad experience, I saw one yesterday and every eye was on it. Value has gone crazy high too.
The 2004 model was known to have a lot of issues, although I always heard the 2009+ Gallardos were far more reliable, maybe you would’ve had a better experience with one of those
I don’t doubt a 09+ LP car would have treated me better. I would like to try owning one of those sometime. The 5.0 v10 sounds way better than the 5.2 to though, in my opinion, and the original pre-lp styling I actually like more just from a nostalgia perspective.
@@sgfreak96 I feel that bro I remember seeing a picture of a 2004 Gallardo as a kid and that got me thinking about cars. So many great cars at that price range you could even take a different route and get a Tesla Plaid for the 0-60 in 2 seconds or a Rolls Royce 🤷🏼♂️
@@GODOFLIQUOR I have a Porsche now that I love and I love pretty much anything from volkswagen-audi-group so I’ll likely stick with them and get another R8 later on or a newer Gallardo possibly. Love Rolls Royce too - fun car comes first for me though lol.
@@GODOFLIQUOR To be honest, by 06-08 the pre-LP Gallardo's were truly sorted cars. I like mine and the only issue I have had was a clutch job, but that's not really an issue, it just hurts the bank $8k (Carbon Kevlar Clutch). Aside from that, it has been great, you have to drive these cars in sport mode in order to save wear on the clutch, also deleting the AWD really transforms the car. I understand about the Rolls Royce but the Tesla plaid is a very dull car that has no character whatsoever, owning a Tesla is literally like owning the latest phone... I had a P85D when it first came out for 18 months, 3 updates in the first 1 month of ownership during those updates the car was not operational. The average range was -220 miles and it would freak out when you hit over 200 miles on 1 charge. I really wanted to like the Tesla but I couldn't, It was quicker than my Gallardo for sure up to about 120mph but if you drive it hard you destroy the range. After a friend drove it who owns a lotus exige, he quickly noted that you could really feel the weight in the corners and it was just not engaging, no character, no soul. Getting rid of the Tesla was the best choice I made. But hey, horses for courses, I think people in this day and age are blinded by straight-line speed as opposed to the overall feel of the car. The Gallardo always puts a smile on my face... but when you own a high-end car like a Ferrari or a Lamborghini you have to pay to play, especially with the older cars like the 360 and the Gallardo.
I was thinking about your car and just ended up getting a Ferrari 430. My car is super fun to drive. It is all stock and when the valves open up it gets loud. My engine has been very reliable for the past 2 years. I think finding an independent shop that is trusted is much cheaper than a dealer. I had to replace a fuel pump and fluid changed that was it.
I reaaaallly love the F430. I’m a ferrari nut at heart and would have gladly had a 430, and still would like to own one one day. Agreed on independent dealers; I had one do my oil pump overhaul and rear main seal when that all went to crap. Also had another indy do my starter motor. I have only been in 458s, but am dying to ride in a 430 or better yet drive one. Enjoy yours, sounds like its been awesome to have!
You are correct if you can't afford the maintenance of a car thats not the car for you. I have an 08 spyder and it is the best car for me.
I watched you commentary with some interest. When I was younger I wanted a Lamborghini but as I became older I just wanted luxury and power. Mercedes Benz did the trick. Never got a Lamborghini and after watching your experience I never would. I got rid of my C class and got a Tesla Model S. I love it. All I can say if you want fast, reliable and the future go electric. The Porsche Taycan or an Audi E tron GT might be just your speed.
Hey Robert, thanks for watching! I personally love the Taycan, and E-tron alike. Once I have a nice garage and area I can conveniently charge, I will definitely get an EV or Plugin-Hybrid for my daily driver duty. I think ultimately I will end up with an R8 again. That car had the looks, speed, reliability, and comfort wrapped all into one car. I would love a Lamborghini again one day but it would need to be a newer/more reliable model for sure. Enjoy your tesla and c class, that is a nice duo!
Or the Porsche Caymen is a great car too.
I am in the process of getting a 08 superleggera. Have felt like the 08 was a reliable preLP (most reliable). Curious your thoughts
Extremely jealous - I absolutely love the prelp superleggeras. I would say that is likely a more reliable car than mine being as it has the better transmission gearing, better tcu tuning, and overall will perform much better. As long as the example you are getting has been regularly driven or at least warmed up, and has good maintenance records I would have confidence in it. Definitely do a pre purchase inspection as well. Check for oil leaks from the engine front/rear main, and for coolant leaks as well. Check clutch life remaining too. Some of the hydraulic lines for e gear begin to degrade now too since they are over 15 yrs old in some cases - you can see them leaking or they are often wet/damp with fluid from slow leaks. Hope this helps!! Enjoy the car!
@@sgfreak96 thanks for the advice! Everything seems to check out. Very reputable local dealer with a very strong local following. I am pretty excited. Probably take delivery next week. If I take a video ill link ya :)
@@highvalleycowboy1 Please don’t hesitate to send a link! Happy to help 😁
I was glad to be in a position to turn wrenches on it, but of course it sucks we had to do that in the first place..give it like a year or two, we're all gonna be cruising in the cars we've been dreaming of!
Bigger and better soon to come for the whole philly squad 😃
Sad to see her go but it's understandable. Part of the reason I don't sell the Camaro is I know every little detail about the car what's new what's old everything. The devil you know vs. the devil you don't. If I ever get into a new car I have to hope that it's been taken care of that the seller is honest, which is a lot of trust when cars are as expensive as ever, so I'll stick to my blocky fat chevy for now.
Best of luck to you love the Porsche!
Thanks for watching! I know tons of people who hold onto their toys for the same reason; its just something they know and can depend on. And if you’re having fun with it, may as well stick with it! I thought for sure the Gallardo would have treated me better, but it definitely showed me what it was capable of lol! Enjoy your camaro, one of these days I will get some american muscle again. If the C8 vette wasn’t so hard to get I’d likely have one at this point; chevy nailed it with that car!
Dude, thanks for this info..watched it a dozen times.... I have a question you may be able to answer..... those rpm number... 61mph in first gear is wild, can a tune be done to reflect the gear shifts of 06-08 ? I found a gorgeous 05 but sure would love to get out of gear at 47mph.
Also, my brother, thanks to this video, I looked up its location to find it's from New Hampshire knowing I need to take care of that drive shaft assembly asap.... thanks again
Really glad you enjoyed the video! Definitely get whatever car you decide to buy a thorough look-over by a mechanic you trust. I can’t stress that enough. As for the gearing, the only way to get the 06-08 gear ratios would be to actually swap in the physical gearset from one of those cars into an 04-05 car. A tune can make the actual shifts be quicker/smoother, but it won’t change the 61mph 1st gear redline, because the physical gears in the transmission are what determine the speeds that the car reaches in each gear. One other unconventional and possibly easy method would be to change the final drive ratio in the differential, effectively lowering the top speed of every single gear across the board; your only issue there is 5th and 6th gear would possibly be lowered significantly to speeds that are not fast at all. Sorry, thats a lot of blabbering but I hope this helps.
One final thing to check for - cylinder scoring. Have your mechanic use a borescope to look into the cylinders and check the cylinder walls out. If there’s any scoring, I would walk away. A youtuber named “effspot” bought his 08 superleggera around the time I had my car. It currently needs the whole engine rebuilt because of that.
Thank you so much for the info...makes sense that it's the actual gears and not a simple fix, I overlooked the obvious lolol... after your video I started searching for 06, but as you can guess, she distracted me lol... again, I appreciate you brother, have a happy Sunday !!!
@@ndpesicgroup happy hunting! Feel free to reach out any time with questions or when you pick one up - would love to see pics of what you get!
@@sgfreak96 will do !!!
How much did you pay, how many miles were on it, and how much did you sell it for ? I’m looking at an ‘05 automatic with 22k miles for $95k. Same owner for 10 years. Clutch at 70%. My plan. Drive it for 4 months (50 miles a week tops), put around 2-3k miles on it, and have it for sale as soon as I get it for around $120k. If I get any buyers it’s gone. If not, barely drive it, have a Lambo for 4 months for free and call it a day. Getting the whole pre purchase inspection done to check compression, clutch safety inspection etc. before I buy it. 100%. And I’m going to request to be there when it’s up on the lift so see for myself. What are your thoughts. Car has service records etc etc. seems like a good buy.
I would highly recommend getting an 06+ car as they have more HP, and revised gearing. The revised gearing is a massive upgrade, with way better ratios for every day driving, and spirited driving. I sold mine for far less than $95k; absolutely nobody wanted it. The second I sold mine, all of the sudden the market exploded on these for some reason. I see lots of cars listed for 110-120k though, and they don't move. I think a safe car to flip would be getting an 06-08 Gallardo with 20-30k miles, get it for 90-100, list that for 120k, and that could sell. The market is cooling down though, I'd buy the car because you want it, not to try and flip it. I absolutely advise on a PPI too. Clutch at 70% isn't too bad, I believe sub 60 is where things start to get a little sketchy, and sub 50 is when you may get small issues like "car stuck in neutral" or slipping more. Watch my e-gear/r-tronic driving tips video and you shouldn't do any wear at all. I had a new clutch in mine with 100% life, and when I sold it, it was still at 100% life. Hope this helps, I know it's a big blurb/ramble lol.
Gallardos are hit and miss since so many have been abused, rented, and bought by people who can’t afford the repairs so they cut corners with cheap parts, don’t spend the money to service the car regularly, and then they sell them to others who trust the mileage or looks of the car and don’t get an in depth PPI. Then they get disenchanted with the experience. My ‘05 kicked me in the head for $6k repair the first 2 months and I almost gave up and sold it. But my mechanic kept telling me that once the car is sorted out it’s a reliable car and it’s been a year and he was right. I did get all the books and records for my car and met the prior 2 owners too which made me feel good it wasn’t a rental or abused. You can get these for $70k-$110k for the same exact car and I’m convinced there’s a good reason. The cheaper they are the more likely your bank account is going to get drained. Pay a little more or a lot more for a car with all books and records and a clear PPI that’s been driven rather that sitting around rotting and make sure it wasn’t a prior rental or track rental!
Great information here and I agree with all that your said about spending more for a cleaner car if you can. I similarly thought there would be a “light at the end of the tunnel” but it continually kept screwing me and I didn’t want to risk it more. In fact, the day after the new owner got it, it began leaking oil on his garage. This was after it had passed a PPI at a lambo dealership! They can definitely be hit or miss
@@sgfreak96 ya. You got a bad one and smart to escape. I’ve seen guys here on TH-cam go $30k-$40k deep in repairs in 1 year on a bad car and they’re stuck, then once it’s sorted out, they can’t sell it because they’re into the car for $40k more than it’s worth. I just put $12k in a separate bank account just for this cars repairs and maintenance and once that money is exhausted then I’m out. But considering it’s another $140k to get a used 2015 Huracan, I’m going to ride out this thing and keep doing my little prayer every time I get in it. Lol
@@ocmotivator That’s not a bad philosophy to try, just set a bank acct aside for repairs and make it a “one time use” fund lol. I like that! It’s amazing how the huracan is so reliable man. It blows my mind, I never see any complaints or significant issues with them!
It would be interesting see a comparison between the R8 and the Gallardo (cost of ownership, reliability, driver experience etc.)
For me personally I can break that down in this comment.
2008 R8
Owned for 6 months
Cost of ownership - $250 (one oil change)
Drive Experience: Happy medium between comfort/amenities, and raw driving experience. Smooth when you want it smooth, fun when you punch it.
04 Gallardo
Owned for almost 5 months
Cost of ownership - $6000 roughly (rear main seal replacement, oil pump driveline repair, heater control valve repair and coolant flush, starter motors and installation.
Drive Experience: 100% on all the time. Harsh, rough, aggressive at all times. Best driven at 10/10ths and very rewarding when driven hard. Really not suitable or enjoyable for casual driving. Has an amazing spirit, and soul.
Hope this helps!
Hey, Indonesian subscriber here, in my country used LP Gallardo (2009-2013) is priced around US$200k to US300k depending on mods and condition.
And because of "luxury car tax" even NEW fully optioned BASE 2022 992 Carrera is priced around US$700k.
So because of that condition, is used Gallardo better buy than the Porsche? Even though Gallardo will be much more expensive to maintain.
Not to forget yearly road tax for this thing is really high, around US$8,000 per year.
It depends what kind of driving experience you want. A 992 Carrera will probably be a better car to drive, more reliable, and much more comfortable. The Gallardo will be a rough driving experience but a fun one, it looks amazing, and it sounds even better. The Gallardo will definitely cost more to maintain. That said, find a Gallardo that was driven regularly by the previous owner. Don’t find one with low miles or one that has been sitting dormant. One that is driven regularly is one that is going to be a healthy/good car!
@@sgfreak96 Most of Lambos here in Indonesia, including Gallardo are mostly garage queen. Why? Because the yearly road tax back in 2009-2013 was around US$10,000 per year, extremely expensive and was sold officially here for around US$1 Million when it was new.
FYI NEW 2022 Aventador SVJ is now priced around US$2 Million here, yes basically buying Lambo for Bugatti money.
So to make my question clear, is it REALLY WORTH IT to buy new base 992 Carrera for US$700k with warranty rather than a used Gallardo for around US$200k without warranty and a chance for US$10,000+++ maintenance bill?
Btw for driving experience... I do want fun driving experience.
It's kind of the $20k Rolls Royce story. The entry cost is relatively low, but holy shit, the upkeep is absurd. I'm sure you'll have a R8 again (or something as good or better!) one day when you're in a position where you don't have to worry so much about the upkeep so much.
You hit the nail on the head. A lot of people, like myself, see the cost to entry but not the upkeep costs. I knew I’d have to spend some money, I just wasn’t expecting it to be the way it was. All said and done, I wouldn’t change a thing if I had a do over. Despite my gripes, it was the most beautiful car I’ve ever had, and the most “emotional.” Cheers to another R8 or something better haha!
Did you have the car inspection done before you bought this car?!
That’s crazy I wanted it to be my first supercar Porsche sounds great kinda zoned out listening to u switch gears 😂
Lol 😂 glad you enjoyed!
Great video
Thanks!
I have had a 06 Gallardo Spyder Gated Manual for 8 years and have been good.
Nice, thats a very rare car you have. Would hold onto it forever at this point. Million dollar car one day
How do you feel about an 04 gated??
A little better. The long first gear still exists but as a human you can control the clutch pedal much more gracefully than the old computerized e-gear. That will make for a smoother ride and give your clutch a lot of life. I imagine a stick gallardo as being on of the most fun cars out there honestly.
Hey! How fast is the cayman?
It was peppy! The first one I had made 305whp on a dyno, the second one I had I never dyno’d but probably made a tiny bit more. It was such a great car. Nowhere near as fast as the lamborghini though.
Helps if you shop for a low mile well recorded service history and low ownership numbers. It's easy to find a car that's been beat to death. I love my Gallardo
I’ll never buy a low mile car personally. These cars rot as they sit around and don’t get driven, which is exactly what happened to mine. Low owner count is a big thing though that I’d agree with.
my 2005 gallardo had no issues at all
When you do bad maintenance your car will be always broke
Sorry to see the Gallardo go...But I'm sure you'll be enjoying the Porsche.
Thanks for watching! I am definitely enjoying the Porsche. I’m uploading a short video of driving clips showcasing the exhaust noise later today.
Glad I have an m3 comp, reliable and cheap parts and pretty simple to work on.
Those are awesome cars I truly love those - what generation is yours?
Man that’s bad luck , my buddy had a 2010 Gallardo and put 20,000 miles on his car over the course of 4 years and had no issues with it
The 2010 cars are an “LP” generation car and they are much more reliable. Totally different engine design, and in a good way. I would love to try owning an LP car to compare the two experiences!
I hear what you are saying but the devil in me says save up and get one.
Haha. I get that man. I was in the same boat as you. If you get one its an experience you’ll never ever forget. I still miss the great times I had with it!
Nice video. I think you hit the nail on the head on a number of times many of which are why some of us love these cars. I’d say the PreLP cars are “visceral”. Even with my 2006 manual gated the gear changes and feeling is harsh. My wife hates it. A lot of people think the Gallardo is a show off cruise to dinner car. But in fact it’s quite raw and engaging to drive. More suited to spirited drives. I had a Porsche Cayman GT4 prior so suspension wasn’t an issue for me. But the Lambo is much more engaging feeling to me. I’ve had it for just about a month and on a few drives. No issues yet. But I am sure there will be money to spend.
If you can’t afford a few K for service here and there and sock away several k a year for future items like clutch it’s probably not a great car to own. If you are even thinking about gas costs. Same. Porsche makes greet cars tho. Very reliable. Tossable and precise. The G gives that Italian experience and all it entails. It sits right in-between the older 80s/90s classics and more modern digital dual clutch cars which for me was the right blend of livable and hopefully somewhat reliable mixed with visceral driving engagement. Plus gated manual 👍.
No question LP cars are more reliable. The 2006-2008 cars have the updated gear ratios and steering rack as well. But nothing sounds like a v10 pre LP car. 🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹
I agree with everything you said here! The G is a visceral and truly raw experience. It absolutely blew my mind how different it was from the Audi R8 I had before it. They are often cross shopped, and could not be more different. Its really blew my mind. Lamborghini’s, at least the G and Murci, are 1000% drivers cars. They are assumed to be show off/flex type cars but they are terrible for casual driving and going to dinner. They are best driven at 10/10ths! Enjoy your gated car, I wish they weren’t so expensive and I’d totally consider getting an 06-08 gated car just to see what its like. Your input here will help other viewers making the decision to purchase a G of their own 👍🏻
I'm just gonna start with a 2004 Maserati Spyder or DB7 for my entry level "exotic" 😭😭😭 you scared me lol 🤣🤣
It’s not all sunshine and rainbows lol. Get a good ppi and be prepared for sudden issues, especially on older cars or ones with hydraulic systems for the transmission or convertible tops etc. Just be aware and prepared!
@@sgfreak96 yeah man I keep telling myself, if I can survive with an Aston or a Maserati I can survive with anything LOL thank you for the response I really love the video by the way!!
@@razor281 Glad you enjoyed the video! The best “reliable” maserati to get is a GranTurismo, and likewise the best reliable Aston to get is the DB9. My friend has had a GranTurismo for awhile and it has been great to him - they have the zf6 transmission which is great. Likewise my other friend Todd had a DB9 with the zf6 transmission and he never had any issues with it!
question. Why did you record this entire video while driving. lol Why not sit in your garage with a car in the background and talk. Especially when the car youre talking about is not even the car youre in. But anyway, good info on the gallardo. Appreciate the knowledge.
The title of the video is “why I sold my lamborghini” so, as you can imagine, I didn’t have the Gallardo at the time I filmed this video lmao. It was already sold.
@@sgfreak96 I understand that part but then why record in your Porsche. Either way, not important. Actually many people like to drive and record themselves which I never understood, but it is what it is. Aight bro, ✌️
It would be great , if we could get the cost of all these repairs
I thought I mentioned in the video, but apologies if I didn’t. I spent about $5000 repairing the car I believe, rough estimate. The one major repair, the oil pump fix and engine rear main seal, was done at an unbelievably reduced cost courtesy of a good friend who hooked me up. That job alone would likely have been $4000-$6000 at a normal third party shop. Potentially raising my total maintenance cost closer to $10,000.
If your not rich don't buy a rich mans car. But if your mechanically inclined and have access to a lift, then I see no problem.
Can always go to independent shops to drastically save, but with a car like this and fairly major things going wrong, thats when its just going to cost a decent chunk of money no matter what. Anyone who’s mechanically inclined or with a lift would have a great time being able to work on it easily!
thanks for this, these seem luck money pits!!! you saved alot of people to stay away from this!!
They’re not all bad - just do your due diligence and be prepared for the maintenance!
Sounds like I dodged a bullitt , got a new C8 Corvette instead 😅
'Baller'? I'm from Australia (Chris Hemsworth/Margot Robbie country), never heard the word
Lol, baller here means someone with a lot of money who can afford to live a flashy/expensive lifestyle. Hope that helps!
sounds like it needed and LS swap.
What do you meeeean you sold your Lambo?!
😂😂😂 That is a trip through time right there lol
The positive comments are by Lamborghini sellers 🤣🤣😂😂
Lol, I’m sure some of them are!
Too bad about the Lamborghini. Good luck with the Cayman.
Hey Michael! long time, no see, hope all is well on your end. Hopefully next season we can all get together at some events. Happy New Year!
In other words just get a PPI.
PPI 100% no question on any Italian car
Only buy 2009 and up!
Based on what you said bruh Lamborghini is above your pay grade
Yeah I know that's why I sold it lmfao
So ….. you bought a Lamborghini with no guaranti/warrant?? ……. 🤤
At least get 2006 or up never go below that, just buy a porche is not exotic but it's luxury
I have a Porsche now
Some 05 are different from 04
How so? As far as I knew all 04/05 cars were identical in US market?
@@sgfreak96 my 05 1st gear can't go to 50mhp. I think it's depends on what month cars are build. 06 cars build in 05s and some 05 are build in 05 too
@@markbenjaminh The build date isn’t the determination, its the model year of the car that matters. An 06 Model Year built in 05 will have the better gearing. When you say your car won’t hit 50mph, is it an 05 model year car, or an 06 model year car?
@@sgfreak96 05 model year. But It came with front lift, navigation and glass bonnet
@@markbenjaminh wow interesting! I had no idea that was a thing, I just checked your channel out too and saw you’re in the US. I appreciate you sharing the info 👍🏻
only buy gated 6-speed gallardos
Eh I disagree with this. With all the pain I suffered with this thing, the e-gear system gave me no problems. The price difference for a manual one is huge now, and e-gear is still plenty of fun to drive.
Stick with Porsche, thanks for sharing.
Love Porsche, but the Cayman is definitely not fast enough. If only GT3s weren't skyrocketing right now. Thanks for watching!
The simulated version! :)

Lamborghini = money pit🤨. You would think at the cost of these cars the quality would be extremely high,....not so.......🙄.
Part of it is these are just old cars and they weren’t designed with longevity and reliability as a priority. Now all huracans and modern aventadors are great cars with very minimal issues/glitches. Same goes for modern Ferraris when comparing them to their older cars.
So you cry about living 'in the north-east' where summers are short. A guy who can afford a Lambo can afford to move to Florida etc... stop crying
I’ll cry all I want lol, it’s my TH-cam channel I made for me to cry on 😂😂😂
Well, if i was going to buy one, I wouldn't be asking you as you never did your homework. Did you even put it up on the lift before purchase? My God, what a mess underneath. And there seemed to be no understanding whatsoever what this car was. On top of that, trying to do it on the cheap for replacement parts pretty much guarantees you WILL PAY TWICE. Also e-gear enthusiasts know that the car is NOT violent as you stated. It's just that you don't know how to shift. I see this all the time on videos of everyone's head jerking back. You haven't pushed it hard enough through the corners to experience understeer. Watch the Chris Harris video. Hence the reason for the 2WD version and a later e-gear iteration that allows tighter shifts superior to what you bought. .
So you said all that… but haven’t owned one? Ok 👍🏻
Wrong car for its purpose for this guy. Love these cars but cannot drive them easily in dense urban traffic nor pack enough for a cross country trip. Then there is staying under the speed limit.
So a car for the ego and maybe a little bit of track or weekend backroad driving. A Miata for those purposes much more financially viable and arguably more fun.
Totally agree with all of what you said. Definitely was not right for what I was looking for with a car. Was hoping to convey some aspects about the car that don’t seem to have been discussed much prior by anyone else. Hopefully some interested people can use this info to determine further if the car is right for then or not!
The problem with these cars is performance. You can buy a gen 6 Camaro and humiliate a Gallardo on track. Thats inexcusable for its used pricepoint in the modern age. The aero is FAKE and creates turbulence and lift on the rear wheels unless some aftermarket diffuser is installed. Thats inexcusable. The suspension has to be changed because this car has dangerous wheel hop mid corner. What your left with is a GAWKER car that brings attention. The suspension comes like that brand new from the factory. No way this car is worth more than than a new Corvette C8. Lamborghini has only made competent sports cars in the last 5 years, but anything before that is hilarious.
In fairness, comparing a Gallardo to a gen 6 camaro is comparing a 2004 car to a 2016 car. That’s not really fair. A 2016 Huracan would demolish any 2016 camaro in any type of driving event, except for the ZL1 maybe in track events. The Gallardo I’d take every day over any Camaro, any time any place. It’s a much more fun and unique driving experience in my opinion. I also have never heard of Gallardos having fake aero that creates lift on rear wheels - what source discovered that?
@@sgfreak96 Sorry, but the NEW HURACAN STO is going to be less of a car than a C8 Z06, and I'm not talking weight. Lamborghini is associated with wealth, but their cars are deeply flawed.
lmao gen 6 vs gallardo? LMAO how old are you 11 teen?
@@thiosemicarbizidebenzoylal2921 how can you compare a shitty chevy to an italian work of art?
@@sgfreak96 Motortrend and others have said that the aero is FAKE. At a high speed track, there is little down force in anything other than Huracans and above. In fact there is lift on the rear without a wing. The car was designed without modern track aero. The looks of these older cars apparently falls completely apart on track. That's the real measure of a super car and its engineering team.
You simply can’t afford it ….
Thanks Morten, this comment truly warms my heart. I’ll think about it when I climb into my Porsche later 👍🏻
@@sgfreak96 Sorry for my salty remark. I just see a lot of exsamples where someone reaches too high and buys the cheapest expensive car - which often ends being the most expensive. The Porsche is much more obtainable in runnings costs. I drive Porsche myself. Again - sorry for my not-very-nice comment. All love from here 😘
put in garbage parts??? HA!!!!
... and all the oil underneath??? No way you had it up on the lift.
@@stanislouse4168 What are you saying
Dude no REAL Lambo owner reads blogs and talks about using cheap mechanics. Champagne taste beer money lmfao 😂.
Lol. You probably don't know any Lamborghini owners if you're saying that.
