was the number plate 5432? Ive had an 08 black galardo spider on test drive lately, found out the car had some unwanted history behind it so i took it back.

No this car is a UK import...

What 08 Lambo do u have??

i love this thread because it reminds me how lucky i am everyday :D:):)

i work at Rick Damelian's Prestige and get to see and drive these kinds of vehicle's every day.

we are a customer of Ateco who are the sole supplier of Ferrari's in sydney. heading into there vehicle storehouse is like walking into a porn set the feeling is quite overwhelming . wall to wall prancing horses and even a maserati or two. our most recent ferrari is a california convertable, and i will be going to pick up a 599gtb in the coming week's.

the black 599gtb with the yellow callipres? If so Ive got it still, courtesy car

(strokeing my ego) as I wait for my 458 to come in (end of next year).

And when are you guys going to sell that db7 and the silver 360 spider, they have been there since before i bought my first 360 (9 months now)... the price and milage of these cars keep going up but they can not sell them.

lol yeah them things are impossible to sell, the VT Diablo has been with us for some time aswell, who ever sells any1 of them 3 cars gets to drive a 458 at eastern creek as our reward for streeting them ,

They arn't impossible to sell, they have just put the price up, the silver 360 was $176 or $175k in january, now it's $192k with 2000 extra km's on it. Doesn't logic say if it didn't sell @ $176 then why put the price up to $192k? The car is only worth $170k at most, most people don't want traditional manuals in those cars, and a Silver Ferrari doesn't sell for anywhere near red/black or yellow sell for. If that car was the exact same car in tidyer condition, red exterior with tan interior and F1 gear box, it would easily sell for $220k, ive seen red/tan,F1 similar milage UK imports get $210k only 2 weeks ago.

Also what ever happened to the black modena coupe, what was really wrong with it? I took it for a test drive in January and put deposit down, took it for a 2nd test drive and it came up with a suspension fault and a generic fault. That's when I dropped it and demanded my deposit back because the head sales man at the time (the one that got fired from Ateco recently) wouldn't let me get a pre purchase inspection done on it. The repairs were an easy $30k because a month afterwards the price of that car was advertised for $30k less.

i don't know anything about that particular car man ..... and i don't do the pricing of the vehicle's i just try to do the best deal's that will make both parties happy. i'm not one of those salesmen who try to get the most i can. i just weed out the real customer's from tyre kicker's.... like we had a Lebo guy come in with his mates and offer $90k for our 08 m3 convertible, when the ticket price is $170k lol bloody tyre kicker with big dream's and he stayed there for an hour saying the same car is for sale for $100k in melbourne , i told him go to melbourne get it bring it here and i'll give him $130k for it .... well no word back from him since.....lol

Spotted some supercar in Tweed Heads today and I have no idea what it was... and I know my supercars. It was silver and had QLD plates but I wont post the plate details unless anyone thinks they know it.

Was as low if not lower (seriously) than a lambo and would have to have been 2m wide.... so the stance was pretty lambo-esque. Front had two circular lights either side, kind of like a Zonda but I din't get a good look at the front. Side had two big vents with sort of fins kind of like a Saleen S7 but only 1 or 2 fins. It had squarish intakes sticking up behind the side windows like a Countach but less boxy. The back over the engine like a Diablo/Countach with countach like vents behind the sticking up side vents, and vents on the engine cover like a diablo with the small rear window just like a diablo/countach.

Rear from the brake lights down was very unique though.... the lights looked like a late 90's integra brake lights. Long and skinny... the car overall looked from that era, late '90's to early 2000's as latest.

I seriously have nfi what this car was. I was driving behind it for 5 mins and got a few glimpses of the sound and it was nice, but I don't think the driver put the foot down enough but it sounded V12ish for the most part.

Anyone have any idea? lol probably not... it's a qld car and the qld section doesn't have a thread like this.

I heard a while ago Damelian is closing down his prestige/exotics section....

Also saw this again at a different exotics dealer from last time......

What 08 Lambo do u have??

sorry late reply...

E-gear coupe, only mod so far is a full Tubi Exhaust (standard exhaust was too quiet), so basically you will hear it way before you see it :)

good parking job :D

I own the property... Besides why would I want people parking next to my cars... It's bad enough in my skyline with people opening their doors onto my car... Try getting dents out of a $300k gallardo...

spotted twice in a week 2 x ferrari's both cruising together on both occasions (once on the m5, doing 10 under they both turned to look at the sound of my titanium exhaust =) and once in the city), 1 brand new white 458 italia and one black one that looked like a 599 wasnt sure because i was looking at the 458.

sitting on norton st last week (leichardt) in the space of half an hour saw 4 STI's, not a big deal but then a white gallardo, red 458, silver R8 and a murcie, cant remember colour, think black.

they werent cruising together, all at least a few mins apart just another night on norton i guess?

saw the 458 on m5 as well on 18 dec, damn they are nice!

oh and thanks for the pic of the 700hp gtr, will look out for that.

    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
    • Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
    • There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.
    • yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
