i went to class today after driving an hour and a half threw traffic to show up 20-30 minutes late for class, and then I sit down and then half-n-hour later our teacher is like well that's enough you've learned for today so you can go 40 MINUTES EARLY! Well that is all cool with me other then I drove an hour and a half, for 30 minutes of class and gotta drive home now, and can say I learned and did NOTHING! Anyway, I swore to myself all the way home. Anyway I decided to meet up with some friends at lunch at my old high school so I went there and they decided to go to Wendy's, so I took one of my buddies with me and we're driving along and get held back in traffic and try to take a 'short' cut but still to far behind, so I'm sitting at a light and what do I see.... a LAMBORGHINI! I was to my friend "HOLY ****** IT'S A LAMBORGINI!" and kept repeating that. They are like my favorite Supercar and I've only seen 2 of them, so after I freaked out while he got an advance green, I turned to my buddy want to follow him? So of course he agreed and I took off after him but it was down a busy street and he turned into a plaza right away, so I pulled up beside him to inform him of his nice car but he beats me to it, and tells me about my nice car. lol I further explain his is much nicer. lol The guy turned out to be like one of the nicest guys, he owns a a car shop just down the road from my house, he told me to take my car there and they do alot of work on old cars and will take care of it real good. So I decided to park my car beside it and took pictures, at first I couldn't find my camera so I drove off and then decided it had to be in my car so I parked my car and went threw my car and found it and parked beside it agian. Here are some stats and the pictures...

*Note I used this one as my background, I kept the pictures in 1024 x 768 so that you can set them as your desktop, cause they are sweeet. lol =)

I'm parked in a handicap spot cause my car is a handicap compared to the Lamborghini.

awesome man! I saw a white one of those in La Jolla once and my jaw just dropped

7up · 09-12-2002, 11:07 PM

That's a sweet car, I like the license plate on it. If you can believe it I have actually see n two different Diablos driving around Greeley the last year. They look so cool in person, pictures don'y give them justice.

joe4speed · 09-12-2002, 11:48 PM

My neighbor 4 doors down just got rid of one just like that... never drives it, just sits in his garage, Hopefully he sold it to someone that will appreciate it!!!

mustangman65_79 · 09-13-2002, 05:26 AM

I took the first one for my desktop. Very nice indeed. U know, I never realized how good your car looked too. I think both cars complemented each other

Mustangbelle306 · 09-13-2002, 05:37 AM

Very nice!!! I love the Countachs more than the banana lookin' diablos, but the star of that pic is YOUR car!! Makes me want to get a classic Mustang even sooner!!!!

Is that kid detailing the Lam?

1969Mach1 · 09-13-2002, 06:43 AM

Thanks Belle, yeh my car looks pretty sweet in the picture but the Countach is so amazing in real life. Just cause of the rarity of it too. I was to much in aww... to really say anything to him and then he went grocery shopping. That guy wasn't detailing it, he was just gawking like me, he remembered my car from the time I raced that Prelude with 22lbs of boost and lost.

His licence plate was 'Com On' I was not ready to join him. But I must say it was a sexxy beast.

You and me both.

LxMustangRacer · 09-13-2002, 11:20 AM

We had a lamborghini come to my work last year. I was leaning inside of it and thinking, if I drive this i'll probably get fired.... who needs a job anyways.

DAN-MAN · 09-13-2002, 05:57 PM

Very nice car. Course, if I had money I'd got for an '03 Cobra or an S7.

Oh yeah, when you get tired of the Mach 1, send it down my way. I'm needing something new to drive anyways.
