It's The Right Color Anyway

Congratulations to friend of TTAC and friend of mine, Aaron Povoledo!


Aaron’s on pole for tomorrow’s Lamborghini Challenge race at Mosport Canadian Tire Motorsport Park. While it’s a bit unfair letting Aaron run heads-up against the usual gentleman driver crowd, in this case we’ll allow it due to the proper Lime Green color on his Gallardo. Best of luck, Aaron!

    Is that a Flux Capacitor back there?

      Damn I was thinking the same thing about that Flux in the drivers seat.

    I saw an Aventador roadster in this color on Michigan Ave. around noon yesterday...looked great, sounded even better. I saw an even rarer car the previous day. A white Pontiac station wagon with faux wood paneling circa 1990. It was a special weekend.

  • AZFelix With both fuel lines and battery packs, Lamborghini owners can soon wager on which part of the engine will instigate the self immolation of their super cars.
  • Namesakeone The realities of the market have spoken: with a little help of a lingering recession (in that most families need a car for every purpose, rather than affording multiple cars as once was true), and with a little advertising-prodding from the manufacturers, the SUV and crossover have, in turn, replaced the station wagon, the minivan, and now the sedan. (Or maybe the minivan replaced the station wagon. Whatever.) I still like cars, but the only votes are the ones that a.) come to new-car dealerships, and b.) come with money attached. Period.
  • MaintenanceCosts "But your author does wonder what the maintenance routine is going to be like on an Italian-German supercar that plays host to a high-revving engine, battery pack, and several electric motors."Probably not much different from the maintenance routine of any other Italian-German supercar with a high-revving engine.

  • 2manyvettes I had a Cougar of similar vintage that I bought from my late mother in law. It did not suffer the issues mentioned in this article, but being a Minnesota car it did have some weird issues, like a rusted brake line.(!) I do not remember the mileage of the vehicle, but it left my driveway when the transmission started making unwelcome noises. I traded it for a much newer Ford Fusion that served my daughter well until she finished college.
