It's great to see you loading the mule and not worrying about the wagon, do what makes you happy always.

Very exciting!! I always wondered the feel difference going from a Gallardo to A would be. How much they give you for your 2011 trade in and how many miles were on that SL? Feel free to PM me your response if you like.

The initial take off feels faster and is more nimble on G.

Was sad to see the superleggera go but I did not want to hold car past next year when the new G will be announced and depreciation will accelerate on it.

I will def miss her a lot.

Will post some pics of new aventador when I pick her up next week it will be orange metallic with black interior.

Man, that is awesome!

I wish I could trade in my old Gallardo for an Aventador!...if I did do that, all I'd need is another $350K-400K cash money and I'd be good to go!

I think it is kinda funny how someone is worried about the depreciation hit and buying an Aventador.

But I suppose that is part of how the OP has the $400k to throw at a car! NICE!!

If it was me, I'd give precisely two about depreciation.

Can't wait to see the pics! Oh and lets see the pic of that SL. We love all lambos!

Took a few quick phone pics at dealer after pdi today.

Love the orange paint and contrast orange stitching.

Car def does not feel as light and nimble as superleggera but has tons of raw brutal power and torque.

Very different driving experience other than some things similar like stiff ride and quirky transmission in first gear traffic.

Car does not like being in 1st gear unless your punching it hard as it starts to hiccup and confused especially in strata mode.

Will report with more findings and photos soon guys
