This made me rethink my desire for Lamborghinis - the image associated with them immediately made them less desirable for me. A DB9 would suffice better.  |
When I first met a Murcielago owner I was surprised by him. he wore grey shirts and Tshirt. nothing fancy and attention-whorish.
The second lamborghini owner I met gave me a ride. I know him from Lambopower and he owns an SLR722. he came to my house and gave me a ride in it. he said that his Gallardo gets a lot more attention (afterall, its a deep blue lambo) and that you CAN NOT be shy to own one of these cars. after seeing the amount of attention someone gets from the SLR, I CAN NOT imagine how it would be inside of a lambo. so from that perspective, lambo owners are not shy people who have a hard time dealing with attention. however, they are not attention craving idiots that many think they are. unlike ferrari owners...
...I saw the owner of a 355 spider a few years ago in downtown toronto. he had long greasy hair and no shirt, just a leather vest showing off his sixpack. he has crocodile pants with leather boots and he was wearing sunglasses. he looked like an IDIOT. me and a couple guys enjoying his nice red car and he comes out, opens the door, looks inside for no reason what so ever, and leaves again. why? just to let us know he owns the car
later, about 30 minutes, I hear a wonderful engine and realise its him, sitting in the middle of traffic reving his engine.
now, im sure all ferrari owners are not like this, but this guy had some serious issues, he looked and acted like a gay pornstar.
