Is it me, but is almost every new LP560 white ?

Even Robinho seems to have one(which would put me off buying one..)

IMO white is/was the best colour for the Countach and in my eyes the G is the closest thing we'll ever get to a 'modern Countach'. I'm glad it's back in vogue because black is too understated and un-Lambo-like!

A Lambo in 'French Taxi White'...







Worse than white?

Why would the fact that a football player has great taste put you off buying a car!?!? Sound's a bit pathetic to me.
If i was in the fortunate position to be able buy a supercar the last thing that would be on my mind is who drives the cars that i'm looking at!! He's a footballer not Jack the Ripper for godsake!!!!!!! rolleyes

If i manage to scrape the funds together this year, I would pick an LP560 in a very lime green.

Lamborghinis are meant to be loud!



Edit: Though it looks like the colour is hard to match (right wing mirror)

The green is lovely! I'd like a 560 Superlegover in that colour (if they will do it)

lambo stockport has a white one in the window at the moment.

End of the day they will always have the most popular colour in.

Errr LP640? Murci?

Gallardo doesn't have the 12 or the doors.

I agree some of the other colours are fab, I have seen pixs of Blue,Green, orange and black. BUT most of the UK stock is white .. there at least 10 kicking around ..

I must admit, whilst I quite like the Gallardo it is miles away from a modern day Countach. I would say the Gallardo is more like a modern day Jalpa.

The modern Countach has to be the Murci, and before that the Diablo. Just like the Anniversary/QV, etc, the LP640 and forthcoming LP670 SV are 'improvements' on the original theme.

I know it doesn't have the V12 or the doors. It's the look of the thing. The Murci and the LP640 don't have the same 'feel' (for want of a better word).

I was at the Bentley dealer in Sevenoaks ... I ask how come they had two Lambos .. apparently they will become a Lambo dealer as well ..

Oh why white? .. launch colour was the reply ...nice car no swirls or any damage I could spot ..

Unfortunately the car was locked ..I could have sat in and held my RS4 steering wheel smile
