Sounds very promising. Roll on September 1st

Apart from the looks and interior how much is different to the SL underneath? If i was to use them both on track is the SL the obvious choice or is there not much in it once you have ceramics on the 560? Lastly, any ideas on where the SL will sit price wise(roughly) once the 560 is on the streets?

SL has now finished production.

does anyone know how many SLs there are in the UK ?
presumably its rarity/novelty will help to keep prices relatively buoyant ?

All the reviews I'm reading are too faint in their praise for my liking.

Steve Sutcliffe in this week's Autocar is far from faint in his praise. "It is hard to think of any car that can seriously upstage the LP560-4"...... " "I can't tell you how fast we went, but I can tell you how good the LP560-4 felt, and it was/is sensational"..... "Lamborghini is more serious now about its future than it has been at any time in its 45-year history, and if the LP560-4 is a taste for what's to come then it's a future that's bright. And relevant. And one that sounds more sensational than ever."

Fair enough.

Hello All

Just got back from Las Vegas to drive the car. Notably different in drive from the current car. Particularly torque. E-gear is sublime and the engine note is the best I have heard from anything!!

Overall very impressed. Only drove on a short track so looking forward to driving it on the road.

You have every right to be excited Iain!!

Um, are you a dealer by any chance?

Hardly hiding it, is he? But if he thought it wasn't very good (chances of that?) he just wouldn't post, would he? It's not like he'll need to be drumming up business.

Yes I am a dealer, well spotted! And yes I am not just a dealer but also a fanatic so I am definitely going to be biased. So thats why my plus points on the car are based against the previous Gallardo rather than another car. Wait until you hear one! Then you will understand exactly what I mean!!

When are the UK dealer demonstator cars arriving?

[LamboBrum]

In about three weeks. Although they could be Lamborghini weeks if you know what I mean!!
