I rebooted, deleted temp files, history, cookies and everything...still cannot view the news clip. All I see is that fucking gay ass music video from "Rick Roll". Anyone else have a different link to the news clip?
I'd imagine leasing a lambo is 1800 no?
THen insurance must be a shitload as well.
I'd think 80 k would get you a lambo and an efficiency apartment,
Do you really need to look that cool? when you bring the bitch to your house she'll walk out on you anyways.
Exactly ... better drive a civic and have a pimped out house... so she won't come out of the bed ;)

Driving a Lambo and paying 1500 for rent.
$1500 for rent *might* get you a decent 250-500 sq.ft STUDIO in a nice part of town.
For that here you can get a good 2000 sq feet house... and not a ghetto one.

And the kid who thinks 60-80 is making 10k a year as he ignores the 40% tax bite you would hit with in that income bracket.
You guys are lucky with just 40% taxes. Here in my woood, 40% is what's left on your income after paying the governments share of various taxes and social benefits
Personally, I'd never buy a Lambo, I'd rather put all my 'extra' wealth into founding a free school to help street children from the Philippines get a world-class education. Seeing them go on to get good jobs, lift themselves up from chronic poverty, develop intergenerational values that will reduce the chance of poverty, and provide for their families will probably give me more satisfaction than riding a Lambo.
That is socialist talk. In Amarica, it's all about looking out for number one: Me, Myself and I
I'd say you should be making a secure 400-500K a year and have atleast 500K in the bank. Of course, that is a little lower if you are getting a Gallardo. Big diff in price between the Murci and the Gallardo.
Based on maintenance,insurance and you'd have to have at least one other vehicle for a daily driver I'd say at least 200k gross annually.
uhmmmmmmm no.
Insurance is NOT 10k a year on a lambo and you do not need to be making 150k a year to afford one and you do not need any other car for a daily driver.
A Gallardo is considered a daily driver. Insurance is no more than $3k a year and you can get a 2004-2005 model for around $130k
Of course this is all mute if you're some 18 year old.

Vehicle #1) 2005 Lamborghini Gallardo
Valued at $150000.
Driven no more than 5000 miles annually.
Deductible for this vehicle: $500
Coverage includes comprehensive and collision.
Comp/Coll premium for your 2005 Lamborghini Gallardo $3375
Liability Limits (for all vehicles)
Bodily Injury Liability Limits 20/40 $38
Property Damage Limits $100000 $22
Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist Limits 20/40 $17
Personal Injury Protection $5000 $13
Total $90
150K per year in the USA and you can afford a Lambo. In the UK you'd need to earn at least £200K per year. Our insurance prices are insane. Plus over here you just don't own a Lambo. I saw one driving through my town a couple months ago but apart from that I've never saw one before except at car shows.

It was fun to read this thread again.
Now that i've had my Lamborghini a year,i'm in a better position to talk about ownership.So far,it's been totally reliable.I did about 5k miles on it and beyond the initial first service and oil change I haven't had to spend anything additional on it.Tires will need to be changed sometime next year.I think I might get 8-9k on them.But as far as using it for a daily drive.I wouldn't for a lot of reasons.
Porsche would be a much better choice for a daily driver.
I think it would be extremely difficult to impossible to own any exotic car on less than a 6-figure income.

you don't take her home. ya get head in the car then drop here off at the next stop sign. vrrrrooommmm
And if you are single I would say you need to make around 60-80k a year if you want it to be afforable.
If everyone making $80k a year could afford one they would be selling Lambos like hot cakes!
There are so many other things you need to look at:
Insurance
Tires
Tune Ups at $800 a pop
Cost of gas
And the biggest thing you aren't considering is the fact that this isn't a daily driver. You don't just turn the key, hit the gas and go. To properly maintain the car you need to let it warm up. This is the kind of car you take out once a week.
With that in mind, you need a daily driver. You can't own a Lambo and have a used Honda Civic as your daily driver; You'll need something nice to drive on a daily basis.

If you lease you should be able to have 250k in available funds at any given time, if you outright buy it 1m in cash. Remember that 250,000 is a lot of money but at the same time its not THAT much money.
Yet, despite the sports suspension setup, despite the 19-inch rims, this is a very comfortable car to ride in. You can truly live with this car on a day to day basis, even in winter, if you had to.
I really can imagine someone having both these cars in their garage, the Gallardo for everyday use, and the Murcielago for when you want to blow your head off.
The Gallardo is a supercar that was built for daily driving and if you are not driving it at least once every second day you are ruining it. Ask any professional mechanic. Cars like this need to be driven regularly in order to keep their parts in working order.
While you guys argue about it..The sun is shining,the roads are clean..and I have a bunch of new music loaded on the IPOD..so I will enjoy the day and take my Lamborghini out for a cruise.

Like I mentioned,I put over 5k on it the first year.I drive it all the time the way it was designed to be driven.I just wouldn't use it as a daily.It's very low to the ground,it has no storage room at all.It's not an easy car to get in and out of.
The car draws way to much attention.The Porsche fits in a lot better.In all the years I've owned 911's,they have been photographed once or twice.In the year of owning the Lamborghini it's been photographed 100's of times.The downside of all that attention is that a lot of it takes place on the road at higher speeds.

I think that once the kids are out of the house, I'll consider jumping on something nice like that. I'm a family man and one everyday vehicle has to be my Ford Expedition and my second vehicle has to be a truck for towing my camper around, so I got my 2005 Ford F-350 Harley Davidson Quad-Cab truck, that's my baby

You've got the perfect roads up there for one, Slick.
Good to see you posting again.

How much do you think you would need to make a year before you would decide to buy a lambo?
There are cool people who drive lambos and uncool people who drive lambos. The cool people are those making $1M+/year and can afford the lambo no problem. The uncool people are those making $50k - $200k/year who drive a lambo even though they cant afford it and basically end up making payments on it equivalent to the mortgage on their house.
Screw the lambo, get an Ariel Atom. It will flat out smoke any lambo and probably turm as many heads, AND is under $80k for the fully tricked out, carbon fiber model.
Sig is on vacation... (I wish I could vacation as long as my sig has...)
Dont look at it as how much income per year, look at it like this:
1. pay off all your debts including your mortgage for your house
2. have at least 500k/ 1 million in retirement / investments.
3. Now you can consider an expensive car toy

Yup ... that's the goal. Well said.
I guess I could afford a Lambo, but I'd have to live in it.
