The bill for the repairs? $200,000.
I thought the Gallardo cost about $180,000...the bill looks steep.

My bad thats the Muciellago....big diference.

My Dad drove my C5 one time, got it up to 125mph and said "I'm done". I think he could have scared us both, but he knew to stop while we were alive.

I let my son drive my C6 the day I got it......He has a 2000 Camaro SS so I knew he could handle it....
It took me 8 months before I taught my 21 year old daughter how to drive a standard in my 6 speed C6

I let my Dad drive my '99 C5 one day. Came back with a big smile and saying that he would end up with lots of tickets with it. He has sat in my '07 C6, but has not driven it yet...didn't ask to. Next time I see him, I'll offer him a drive.
