The merci comes with 335 tyres on the rear as standard. I think that orange Gallardo is actually for sale around the $400k mark iirc.

Only murci ive seen in the flesh was in melbourne CBD... I'll never forget the sound that thing makes at idle - sounds higher pitched than my car on its redline.
Amazing things.

cars like that just have sounds from their own world dont they... unbelievable... but the money and design that goes into them is more than the average car dealership is worth...

I think the number plate relates to the vehicle and insurance costs.

If you want to see one here in Sydney hang around Mosman or go to Star city on a Saturday night. Lambo's Ferrari's, Porsche, ect.
Why is that Lambo parked in an underground garage all by itself? I wouldn't park a car of that value any where out of my sites.
