PhilT Posted June 1, 2007 Share Posted June 1, 2007 This afternoon I had the chance to test drive my boss's brand new Gallardo Spyder for an hour. Although not enamoured with it's looks, the sound of that V10 is amazing. It really is music to your ears. To drive it is alot easier than I imagined, clutch is fairly light and smooth, brakes are awesome, the only thing I didn't like was about an inch of travel on the accelerator before things came to life. Once above 4,000 rpms, it reacts to the slightest touch though. As it only had 400 kms on the clock, I didn't take it to more than 5,000 rpm. Handling as you can imagine was fantastic, it would take me a long time to have enough confidence to take it anywhere near the limit, but the few corners I took were enough to get the feeling this car was just glued to the road. http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e194/PhilTGT/129_2920.jpg http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e194/PhilTGT/129_2922.jpg Double Award Winning Legacy GT Wagon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhilT Posted June 2, 2007 Author Share Posted June 2, 2007 It does, no doubt, but once behind the wheel it really doesn't matter, the sound of that 5 litre V10 is so intoxicating. Double Award Winning Legacy GT Wagon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhilT Posted June 2, 2007 Author Share Posted June 2, 2007 yup its the tits and cooch in one package I don't think I could handle the attention it gets though, everyone, and I mean everyone, stopped and turned their heads as I drove through down the main street.

PhilT Posted June 2, 2007 Author Share Posted June 2, 2007 He should've bought a Legacy instead of the Lambo and used the leftover money to go Stage 52. As he also has a Ferrari 360 Spider, a Rolls Royce Phantom, BMW 650 convertible, Range Rover Sport, and two Harleys, I think he has enough money to go stage 152 if he wanted Double Award Winning Legacy GT Wagon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
