Talking Saw a Gallardo by my job, guy is talking on his cell....

The car was beautiful, an orange Gallardo with orange/black wheels. Looked sensational. The guy though, is talking on HIS CELL!!!

Is it just me or to drive an exotic sports car and talk on your cell, should be illegal. I just thought it looked so out of place, a 500hp V-10 car going to waste stuck in trafffic, guy on the cell phone.

If it was me, both hands on the wheel, engine revving, ready for an opening in the road.

Though I am sure the car is so powerful, he could be on the cell in 6th gear going 20mph and still beat most in a race!

Maybe it was an auto Gallardo?

Is it wrong, automatic exotics? Not sure here.

The car was sensational, I mean incredible to look at.

Yes. Yes it is.

Unless if it's about Prestige over Performance, such as a Bentley or Aston Martin...

Mhmmm...Orange Gallardo...






Yes, automatic exotic plus cell phone is a little off. But Im sure plenty of exotic car owners do the same thing.

Automatic exotics??(well electronically controlled manuals in the Lambos case ) That is something we will be seeing more and more often(as Im sure you already know). I read that both Lambo and Ferrari sell more auto equipped vehicles now since their introduction a few years back.
