I got my Ducati out of mothballs this arvo & figured it could do with some air in the tyres and fuel in the tank. Off to the local service station I went. Good timing on my part. While I was there this Gallardo pulled in. Looked great on the 20 inch ADV.1 wheels. The owner put the roof down and gave me a wave as he left. Then he gunned it. Sports exhausts sound so good when they're angry. Despite my earlier dismissive comments towards the Gallardo http://www.madwhips.com/porsche-993-carrera-rs-is-the-perfect-car/ I gotta say, this looked and sounded stunning. I may have to reconsider. How did we get by before iPhones? All magic moments such as these would just be lost to history. And don't you just hate it when someone runs past just as you take a shot? Well, maybe not every time . . . . .

chuckle chuckle!! I LOVE that car. A Gallardo Spyder with crazy 20" rims, the 560 front clip, AND super-dooper Exhaust. JUUST fantastic. SUPER album - I'm grateful to Steve Jobs for putting a useable camera on the iphone.

Great shots, both of the stunning Gallardo and the hottie. Life is all about being at the right place at the right time. BTW, what Ducati do you ride? I'm a 900SS man myself.

I've got a black with grey frame 2003 Monster 620 injected. It's a nice little bike, & certainly fast enough for my limited riding abilities. Did you see my comments on your 934/935 album? I'm on the funfgruppen forums now.

Awesome pics and great spot. Looks awesome with the LP560-4 front bumper

I love the new LP560 front lip, very aggressive!

Love it.... well-proportioned, exotic, chiseled features, beautiful lines..... and the Lambo is alright too! Hehe oh if my comments get any more clichéd WhipD might ban me! That Gallardo does look especially nice though, it always has been a stunning piece of design which I think has only been enhanced with these tasteful additions. If you can call a bright yellow convertible Lamborghini 'tasteful', anyway! Oh, and DAMN your petrol is cheap down under!

It's about AUD$1.20 a litre at the mo. It was $1.25 last week. Probably be $1.10 next week. It's insane. The price goes up and down during the week. I've even been filling up as the price changed in front of me. It's a race to get to the cash register before the new price becomes effective. And just how did you get that acute in cliched? Cut and paste from Word?

What car was the 'well-proportioned exotic' driving? Looks like she has pretty good taste too.

She was in a Falcon. How boring. She seems to be popular with the madwhippers though.

We did the wheels on this car. Full shoot will be done very soon :)

btw it is a 19/20 setup

Hmmm, I should have looked harder at the fronts. Let us know when the shoot is done. Any pics of your other setups you can share with us?

Hey Oliver- I'm the owner of the car. Someone posted on Aussie Exotics of your post. I remember you obviously :) was going to have a small chat with yas. Appreciate your comments and happy snaps can't believe you took such good pics from an Iphone. See you around! I normally fill up there sundays.

Hi nicot, good to have you here. Maybe sometime I can get some shots with a real camera instead of the phone. I'll keep my eyes peeled. I live in Harris St.
