thebavarian Posted January 25, 2023 Posted January 25, 2023 To my 60th birthday, my wife had a great idea. The present for me was 2 hour driving with a Lamborghini Gallardo. I drove from my house a country road to the highway near by and back. It was amazing, a dream was going reality. Unfortunately there was much traffic on the highway, so it was only possible to drive a top speed of 235 km/h. The sound, the experience and the feeling was great. The engine in this car is a V10 with over 500 HP, top-speed 318 km/h. So I want to built this car. I found the kit from Fujimi with photo-etched parts (important for the grills). The rims from Hobby Design, the carbon decals und safety belts from Scale Production. The color ist Lamborghini Orange Metallic from Zero Paints. Alclad II for the metal parts (magnesium for the rims, like the real ones). The license plates are printed at home like the real plates are. This is the car, I want to built: This is the result: Some pictures from inside: 2

espo Posted January 27, 2023 Posted January 27, 2023 Like hearing about your birthday present for turning the big 60. The paint finish on this model is beautifully done. The detailing of all the other components are cleanly done as well. 1
