ive never drove a lambo before so this is kinda a stupid question, but can you basically drive in 1st gear all the time in the city??? since it can go to 97km and the speed limit is 60km

Good question, I'm 23, and all my friends told me not to take it out of 1st in the city, but felt that it was bad for the car so i just left it in AUTO.

Can you? Yes.

Do you? usually not. if your car goes 30mph in 1st gear, do you drive it in 1st gear @ 25mph? no, you might shift at 25mph, but why keep it in gear? the Lambos have a lot of torque, put it in 2nd or 3rd, tap on the gas and you are cruising. 50mph in 1st gear and you need to feed it a lot of fuel. it is fun, but this is not how most people regularly drive it
