Doors look terrible. Car is too short for them. I always get a kick when someone thinks Lamborghini made a mistake and that they've fixed it.

They are absolutely no way on a Gallardo.
I don't like the doors either. If they were not engineered to be that way they never look right. Put it side by side with a Murcie or Diablo and you'll see the difference.

I have to agree with Alxamg. I think the doors really make the whole package hot. Man, I love that side view.

Was not my intention to upset anyone, and as far modifications, upgrades etc... Thats just not my style. I prefer factory original. I drive a 84 Jalpa which I love. I have also driven Diablo's and Murcie's which I also adore. Here's some pic's of the Jalpa being serviced.

Terry, seems that you got a nice example, make sure the engine is running properly and you will have a lot of fun with the red lady.

Saw a red one like that a few days ago at a local shop here in Brooklyn, NY. Lambo has come a long way.

Lamborghini should have made the doors on the Gallardo the same as their other cars. It was their trademark. Ducati motorcycles changed their trademark when they stopped making single-sided swing arms. I would have preferred my Gallardo with scissor style doors rather than conventional doors. Just my 2 cents.
