They ended production with 14,022 units. It made Gallardos the majority of Lamborghinis in existence but also remaining considerably more rare than either the Ferrari 360, F430, or 458.


Gallardos are pretty damn rare It's not like he posted a base 911 or something.

I saw a YUgo a few weeks back in the Bywater. Some hipster trying too hard.
Shocked any still survived.

I saw a Citoren Ds the other day. Those were never even sold here. I like them.





I see a 1960 Cadillac Deville every time I let my dogs out. Though it'll be years before I finish it.

You're getting noticed either way in those cars I just think the crazy lines look better in those eye-popping colors.

There was a black Ferrari F50 running around NOLA a while back. I'd definitely drive that.

I honestly don't see that many mid to late 80's GTs. And a white convertible? Never.

Carerra gt a couple of weeks ago in Houston. And I live close to a super car storage facility called driver source, so I tend to see some cool cars coming in and out of there fairly often. Saw an f50 there about 3 months ago

You missed the joke....you said that you "saw your first car on the road" and I joked that it meant that you saw a car on the road for the first time in your life.

Don't mind me. Carry on....

Those things are worth 3 million bucks easy. That’s one of the rarest Ferraris there is. And maybe that one has been painted, but they only produced 4 in black off the line. Rarest color they made.

You see the same one, I see multiple, daily. Did you gloss over the neighborhood next to office has about 10 of them? These arent even inclusive of the ones I see a lot.

Again, its regional, but they arent that rare or scarce at this point. maybe in 20 years when they are cast aside in that middle market of "cheap" super cars and there arent that many left

Also 4k gt's to 14k gallardos.
