Wanna thank everyone for the well wishes.
Everyone knows I've had a little mini-fleet of cars. I ran into an issue: Never had time to drive them all. I did some thinking and made a decision. I want to keep my foot in the Corvette world, so the ZR-1 stays...it's a rare bird. The Grand Sport? Lots of them out there. I don't have time to tinker with the Dodges (and don't have a lot of the patience). I traded in the Grand Sport. Didn't get quite what I wanted for it but not terrible and I took advantage of the tax credit. Lamborghini Dallas is interested in having me consign the Challenger with them, so I'll be doing that. If it doesn't sell by September, I'll take it AND the Charger to the Mecum auction in Dallas and sell them there. So it's kind of a straight across trade. I'll be left with the ZR-1 and the Gallardo, and that's enough. For those interested, it's a 2006 Gallardo SE (one of 250 made). It has a 520HP V-10 engine and what they call an "E-Gear" transmission. Basically a manual gearbox without a clutch pedal (although there is an "auto" mode). It's about as loaded as one could have gotten with 23,000 miles on the clock. It has been fully serviced by Lamborghini and I have ALL the documentation going back several years. They even threw it up on a rack for me to inspect it. The car is perfect in every respect. I want to thank ApexOversteer for his assistance and vast knowledge in helping me source this car. I am extremely grateful. I used to draw these cars as a kid in school when I was daydreaming. It was a dream come true just to walk into the showroom. |
