Default Off topic Butt ugly Lambo

Something about the color metallic orange on a Lambo just ain't right. I saw this car last summer at a car show for sale. I then saw it pass my house a few times since. This passed weekend I went for a trip to the local Lowe's for stuff for the house. The Lambo was sitting on a front yard for sale less then a 1/4 mile from me. At quick glance appears to be a early 90's Diablo. If it's the same car I saw last summer it was selling for silly short money, about 1/3 of what they seem to be selling for. If it wasn't for the clown shoes color and the worry about finding parts for it I would have snapped it up. Hmmmm...re-paint

What car? I don't see a car. And if it's not a C6 Z you might be in the wrong neighborhood.

AO looks good on a Vette. I like it. Just as I like plum crazy purple on a 69 Road Runner but I wouldn't like that on a Vette. I think the best color for a Diablo is red like the one in Dumb and Dumber.

Plum crazy didn't come out until 1970 models, so on a 69 Roadrunner it does't look right.

PCP would look good on a Vette IMO.

Right town, wrong car. Damn, two butt ugly orange Lambos less then a mile from me. That one on craigslist appears to be in the Brant Rock/ Blue Fish cove area of Marshfield according to the map. The one I'm talking about is over in the 700's area of Careswell St. Almost in to Duxbury. I'm right in the middle in Green Harbor.
You Hingham???

Drove by 3 times today. No luck. Perhaps it sold last week when it was out front.

I would have bet the farm that this car is not the Lambo I saw down the street but the car in the background is in the same place. I was sure the one I saw was metallic orange and a different body style. This is the fake one on craigslist from the ad.

From a 100 feet, I'd say it's a Murci, someone has some serious body skills.

Rather see them building something than protesting Trump
