Really doesn't suit front numberplates!

Gorgeous otherwise.

I seen this car launched at Geneva and have fought its corner against those that have criticised its looks ever since, I must say though, it looks awful in that last picture.

I am sure it is the angle that its been taken at, but it just looks wrong, looses the "wide & low" look that the big Lambo's usually pull off.

Love the car, but the back just does not sit right with me in that color. Its very color sensitive IMHO.

Not sure if it was this colour, it may have had a bit of a red edge it, but the Aventador I mistook for a later model Gallardo last night was virtually silent when it was floored from the lights. Surreal. Like seeing a lion come prowling down the high street only to meow instead of roar. Definitely needs the stock exhaust replaced as this should be a show stopper. They need to make the Gallardo replacement less similar too as I never mistook the Murci for anything else.

I think the colour balance on these photos is a bit of - anyway the colour really seems to come alive in the sun:
