That color makes the car just beautiful in every way. All we are used to seeing are the lime green and the black, but that wine color makes the car amazing.

I really prefer Racing (a.k.a. Ferrari) Red over Dark Cherry Red for sports cars and motorcycles.

Give the brighter reds to sports cars.
Give the darker reds to luxury cars.

I agree.....especialy on lambo's, those cars are made to stand out so a bright flashy color suites them well

Lime green and black is all you see? I have a yellow one next door! Guess I'm one of the lucky ones

I've seen that color in ads, never in person. It is quite unique. I've also seen a Ferrari F430 in a very similar/identical color. Much nicer, IMO, than the typical Rosso Corsa.

Usually, the color that people say is the most striking on the Lamborghinis is Monterey Blue. I've seen two Murcis in it, and a Diablo. All are stunning. Can stop traffic.



I've never seen a silver Lambo in person, besides mine. Only 4 were built my year in the Titanium color. Must be a geographic thing with taste. Around here you see yellow, orange, and black.

I like the wine color, but the Monterey Blue is stunning and I would own that without a second thought... freaking gorgeous car.

The blue is beautiful, but I still like the wine.

Glenside is very close to my house. I know that exact street where he took the photos. I've never seen the car around the area though. Sucks... such a beautiful car.
