Interesting you should say that because this car can actually benefit from having this wing on where as on a sport compact, it would actually be disadvantageous. I'm not saying it looks good, but it does have a purpose other than sporty looks.

Another vote for chopping off the wing

The car and wheels look good though

I personally don't like the wing but the wing is okay there since it's a Lambo and most likely will get some real use out of it. The car is awesome, I just wish I was rich or I had a rich friend so I could experience driving or riding in one for an extended amount of time.

Nothing to be ashame of, Rice is good, performance is bad. Performance entices people to be idiots and put themselves and the public at risk. However if the owners of those special edition Gallardo should decide to test the cars top speed on public roads, at least the wing will help it stay on the road better. It could mean all the difference in the world between crashing and not. I'm glad Lambo saw fit not to put a tiny little wing like that on a gs400, it wouldn't performance help much, it'll just look tacky.

Interior looks nice and cozy.... maybe a bit too cozy. You wouldn't want to fall asleep behind the wheel of a high end sports car.

The air must be really dumb for Lambo's designers to have to place a long sticker running the whole side of the car to show it where to go. That alone is probably where that extra 30hp came from.

*i didnt want to quote the whole picture by sieze ^ 1 post up*
that color looks like they did primer then a clear coat lol

Superleggera .. wonder where they came up with the name for that, i just wikipedia-ed it and it said it means "super tight" in italian, therefore this is a elegant (gallardo in spanish) super tight car.. i can live with that
although that wing im not feeling too much of
