Default Lamborghini gallardo decision help

Hey guys i am looking to buy a lamborghini sometime in the future but i need help. I was wondering which lamborghini gallardo coupe from 2004-2008 is the most reliable. I am trying to spend at most $140,000 total and I want to get a conversion kit to make it look like a lp 550 but I dont know how much the kit will cost. Lamborghini owners please help me out.

Depending on the taxes you have to pay, you can probably fairly easily manage a 2006 coupe + mods to be under 140k.

I assume you're looking for the front bumper, rear lights etc? There are some vendors on here that sell that stuff maybe they can give you an LT discount.

Only consider '06+ for the extra HP and improved gearing

I may be wrong, happens, but that last run of 05 Gs had those upgrades. Mine was one of the last made in 05 and is night and day different than early 05 models that I drove previous. Can always run the VIN and find out.

I think all Gallardo are fairly reliable. The newer the better.

by exotic std, 20-30k miles can be considered high mileage.

i think gallardo with over 40k miles are higher mileage. they are still very reliable cars though. condition is more of a factor than mileage as far as reliability is concerned.

if reliability is paramount to you, you should probably consider a porsche or r8. nothing wrong with gallardo but a used 7-8 year old car will need repairs even if it's a normal car.
