Lamborghini KL invited me recently to a secret location, ok fine, it’s the KLGCC. The purpose?

I never like some of the older models before the Murciélago. Maybe because I never really like the shape of the Lamborghini despite me having a big poster of the Lamborghini Diablo SV next to my many posters of the other supercar (which I shall not name here or I’ll end up writing more about that Prancing Horse than this Fighting Bull).

Since it’s launch, it had already sold over 12 months of the production vehicles, with deliveries starting in the second half of 2011. In Malaysia alone, to date, 12 units already been ordered from the factory for some of the Malaysian enthusiast. After finding out the OTR price, all I could say is, these people are MAD! MAD! MAD!
