    Honestly, I like it but, I like R8 design wise more. Original Gallardo is design masterpiece IMHO. This LP560-4 is well just good design...

    BTW, new standard Apollo wheels are my favourite since Cordelia are horrible and I am not a big fan of Black Callistos...

    Price list hopefully this weekend...

    Kreso,
    What do the "new" Apollo wheels look like ??? Are there any photos ?
    I see most people hate the Cordelia design -- (I do not know why they are featuring that style).

    This car makes the R8 look like a toy or fantasy car in Ridge Racer. The R8 is over-designed while this car is crafted out of passion.

    Re: Lamborghini Gallardo LP550(?) in Geneva

    I do have to say that white is not the optimal colour for such a car. This colour emphasizes graphical elements on a car (DLO, air in- and outlets, panel gaps) and the new LP560 has enough of these. This ways, all the aggressive angles on the openings protrude visually, even the geometric taillights meet the eye. I find the darker coloured vehicle on the showstand to be much more appropriate.

    Furthermore light colours make the car look visually smaller, compared to darker colours. This particular car already has very shy proportions - for a Lamborghini and compared to the LP640.

    Take the car in a darker colour or one of Lamborghini's signature colours, the striking orange and yellows.

    Got to disgagree with you Ferdie. Both of my Gallardo's have been white and when parked next to any of the other colours it actually makes the car look bigger. Black makes the car look much smaller as you lose all of the design details.

    As a side note I was at a Lamborghini Driving Academy day last week and was out with 3 of the factory's driving instructors who were all young guys. I asked each of them what their favourite colour was on the Gallardo as we were going round the various tracks and they all independently said Bianco Monocerus (solid, non-metallic white) which they said is simply stunning on the Superleggera. I never told them my car was white either and had expected them to say verde ithica or arancio borealis.
