Re: If you had a choice, would it be 360 CS or Gallardo Superleggera?
Mike S:
Well here is the dilemma, I made a few phone calls yesterday and there will be a CS available in the next few weeks. There are 12 in the country in total. The colour and specifications still to be confirmed by dealer. All of them are at around 15,000 to 20,000km mileage unfortunately. Pricing estimated at $304k.
There are 3 Superleggera's available now (black, yellow and orange) all with pretty much with delivery mileage. There are 8 in the country. Pricing would be around $402k.
On a side note, the Ferrari dealer also offered me an allocation for a 430 Scuderia, but the car doesn't appeal to me yet. I don't know why - I don't want to sell the 430 and I don't want another 430, I know they are worlds apart in terms of the drive. Pricing was also quite fair for a change. Problem is there are already 21 Scuderia's in the country and we will also be receiving 4 16M Spiders (all sold already).

@Joe: Thanks for the link and trip down memory lane. I drove the CS years ago so I still have a vague memory on how it drives
@550 spyder: I would go for the Turbo if I was you, I also drove the Superleggera and it's not an easy car to live with everyday. The suspension is rock hard and ground clearance is a joke, but what else would you expect from a Lambo. The Turbo is extremely fast and far cheaper than the SL.
@Alex: Thanks for the great vid!
@pride355: Thanks very much for your comments. I think they are very valid.
@ISUK: You're making this very hard for me. I think at the end of the day I will probably end up getting both, but I'm not going to have the space to keep them for about the next year or so. I'm debating what should I get now - before the CS perhaps appreciates and ends up more expensive and then get the SL after it's depreciated some more? Or get the SL now with low mileage while I still can?
@superDarius: Thanks Darius I might look into the 993 GT2 in the future, I'm quite happy with my share of 993 history at the moment.
@Lars: Thanks for you input! I feel the same way.
BTW, if you are looking for a car that should simply deliver performance do yourself a favour and test (alternative: buy and test then ) the Scuderia. This car is an amazing and yet highly efficient machine. I don't think you would regret getting one + it's an all time classic
