She's baaack...

After more than a month waiting on repairs/parts, my Gallardo finally made it back to me. Driving it and the F430 back to back is a very odd experience, I'm going to put some miles on the G before making any comparisons to the F430.
Until then, here are some pics of the two:

Nice photos!

Your cars are a bit flashier than your neighbour's!!

(I presume the cars in the background actually belong to the builders - judging by the port-a-loos etc...

)

Re: She's baaack...

Did they tell you what the problem with the engine was? And was the engine fixed or replaced?

Re: She's baaack...

Awesome Raz! You can see size-wise how much larger the F430 is over the Gallardo.

F430 and Gallardo look very similar to you

OK... I guess that you are true PORSCHEIN addict.

I see what you mean, it struck me too: same placement of intakes, exhausts, same basic shape of panels, etc. Not a bad thing, I think it shows how close mankind has come to designing the perfect car.

Re: She's baaack...

Excellent. Clearly shows why the Gallaro is superior to the F430 Spider in styling. I hate those humps and cheap roll hoops on the F430 spider.
