The Raging Bull is in India!

Automobili Lamborghini finally decided to move to India in 2006 through selected dealers. They have brought the Gallardo and the Murcielago models over here. Each is priced at a tad above Rs.3 crores. Well, not a bad deal though. The raging bull is yet to make its appearance in Madras though a fashion designer in the ECR is rumoured to have booked a Gallardo(He lost his Ferrari in a crash a few months back. He had no remorse as he informed the journos at the hospital that he didnt mind losing the Ferrari as a Lambo was on the way to his garage!)

Thankully I wasnt present at the press conference. The Police would have booked me in a murder case.

I have seen a couple of Porsches and even a Ferrari in the streets of Madras.

Seeing a Lambo would definitely give me orgasms.

I have been a great fan of Lamborghinis ever since i started reading. I feel i am lucky to have a sister by the same name of a Lambo car (though not the same spelling)

While we await the arrival of the Gallardo, here are the specs of the raging bull, soon to scorch the roads of Chennai.
