White Lamborghini Gallardo

I have a backlog of Lamborghini photos to post since the end of the recent Lamborghini 'drought'. Suddenly all those seemingly 'missing' Lamborghinis re-surfaced, and I was only too happy to take more photos of them!

This beautiful white Lamborghini Gallardo was seen parked outside Hilton Hotel. This place happens to be another hotspot for viewing exotic supercars like Lamborghinis, Ferraris etc., on weekend afternoons especially, besides at Meritus Mandarin Hotel.

I love the Gallardo in white color. Some people find that white is too 'tame' or dull a color for the Lamborghini. It should be in flashy colors like bright yellow, they say. Yellow is after all the trademark color of this Italian supercar.

I do like the Lamborghini in yellow, but white is also fine with me as it looks elegant, provided of course if you can keep your car spotlessly clean when you drive it out. This is my first Gallardo photo, though I've also taken a photo of a white Gallardo Spyder.

Black Lamborghini Murcielago LP-640

After what seems like a long Lamborghini 'drought' of nearly a month, the seemingly elusive Lamborghini re-appeared once more before my eyes! This stunningly beautiful black Lamborghini Murcielago LP-640 was photographed outside Meritus Mandarin Hotel, the number one hotspot to view Lamborghinis and other exotic supercars in Singapore!


The black supercar was so shiny that its bonnet kept reflecting the image of the hotel, no matter which height and angle I took the photos from. It was also a bit tricky taking the rear view photo because I had to stand on the hotel service road where all the cabs and other visitors' cars were constantly streaming past. Luckily I managed to snap the above shot before the next vehicle came along!

Black Porche Carrera

The Lamborghini 'drought' continues from last month to this month. Hence I decided to take photos of this black Porche so as not go home 'empty-handed'. The Porche was so spotlessly clean that its sloping bonnet reflects the light easily. You can see the sky on half the car itself!

As I'm not familiar with Porche cars and its various models (being able to confidently identify a Boxster only), I only know that this is a Porche Carrera from the obvious letterings on its boot. I have to admit that the Porche does look good in black color. I usually tend to see them in silver and other light colors.

Yellow Pagani Zonda Roadster

As you can tell from my past blog posts, I've been facing a Lamborghini 'drought' lately. Whenever I go to Orchard Road, I've been seeing many other brands of supercars except for the Lamborghinis. I wonder where have they all gone? On a convoy trip to Malaysia perhaps?

Anyway, I spotted this very unusual looking supercar some weeks ago and decided to photograph it. At that time, I had no idea what brand and model this car is. It was only after I saw video clips of this same car on YouTube that I realised it's a Pagani Zonda, an Italian supercar brand just like Lamborghini!

I find the exhaust design of the Pagani Zonda very unique looking as it resembles a rocket thruster. I read some of the comments on YouTube and learnt that there are only a handful of Pagani Zondas in Singapore! Hence I'm supposed to be very lucky to spot one! However, I still miss seeing the Lamborghinis...
