Default July 4th - Another Gallardo in Lausanne, black wheels!

A nice day by the lake:


And a lucky one too not one but two Gallardos! And one with black wheels. Stunning!

First pic from the back was crappy because of the messy windshield:


Sadly also the second was crappy since I had no time to really find a good emplacement to take a front pic, but luckily I managed to stop the car just in time: not perfect but could have been worst


And here is the second Gallardo I saw. For sure it was another one since the wheels were the normal color.. I ran but the light turned green to fast


Also a very nice RS6 in the parking lot


Ugly but damn rare, Smart Crossblade

Nice pics TT, you're getting even better at this

I now use the first picture as my desktop background, very nice!!

The black wheels are indeed better then the standard. This gives it more of a "bad boy" look 8)

Thanks for the pics.

Thanks guys

To take good pics at the lake is hard during summer since there is always some fog that hide the French shore, but today despite the heat it was pretty nice

LOL while I was running like crazy, everybody was staring at me, an apparently normal guy with his digicamera, running like if a serial killer was after him and all for nothing

Hey TT, can we get some hi-res ones of that orange one with black wheels?

I think it could be a crap load of brake dust by the looks of it?

Depend a bit, in wich part? But in most of it, in September you will find good end of summer-autumn time, temperatures still around 20 degrees during the day, even a bit more, and cool nights

You just had to click the picture: http://www.jabbasworld.net/photopost...llardo-056.jpg isn't this big enough to see they are marvellously black?

They are indeed lovely pictures TT. I think the factory official colours (if they are not already) should be that pearl orange for the Gallardo....it looks superb in orange and those black wheels do seem to work with it as well.

Thanks for the hard work that I know was involved in getting these pictures up for us to all enjoy.

Nice boat picture as well...that looks a very relaxing place indeed.
