If you wont tell us exactly what you are getting, then just tell us if it is a 2door, 4door, 4wd ect. Then at least we can have some fun with it and guess what your plan is.
I was going for a Scuderia, but no dealers were willing to play ball so I decided to go in another direction.

They are both AWD 2 doors, and they are brothers... One is in the bag, working out the details on the second.

That would be my guess also, as bad ass as the R8 looks, the Gallardo has the power to back up its looks. Can't wait to see it.

Haha.. More like half brothers! LOL.

But I get your drift. It is a Lambo if they are brothers. So we have a couple of options. I think we can rule out the new stealth Murc. So my guesses are:
LP 640 couple/roadsteer
or
Gallardo coupe/spyder

my money goes on the superleggera

I know you are going to get a crazy color too!

Did you look into the new gt2? or a gt3rs? What about the new F430 challange edtion?

Also the skyline is hard to beat for the bang for the buck.

Call me crazy but I'd rather have a Gallardo than a Murci, not that I would turn either down haha... but I just like the smaller more nimble version, even if its not quite as brawny.

A superlegerra would be intense

MAYBE ITS A REVENTON!
haha ok maybe not... but now I'm excited.


Whatever you get, I can't wait to see an in depth detail!

Good luck with the purchase.

PS. Rosso Metis is a stunning color.

Sounds like you lucked out if there's no frame damage.

2 2 door AWD cars that are brothers? That narrows it down to one name I can think of. ;-)

only $26k? that sounds super wrong... i go to spectrum collision, the only BMWNA approved body shop in the country... and they had an M5 come in with FAR LESS damage, i mean FAR LESS.... and it was $38,000. the issue is that the who understructure is "fused" together, so you can't adjust anything on a normal frame aligning machine or using any conventional methods. i'd make sure your shop knows whats up.
