Orange Lamborghini Gallardo

Yes! I hit another jackpot when I passed by Hilton Hotel on a recent weekend! This is my first photo of an orange Lamborghini Gallardo! I very much prefer to spot and take photos of Lamborghinis and other supercars at Hilton Hotel as there is no barrier between passerbys and the supercars parked there. It's even better if the supercars are parked on the side of the hotel service road that is nearer the hotel, instead of the other side nearer the pavement and vegetation.

Oh mine, this bright orange Gallardo is so beautiful in person! I remember feeling a little awkward as I whipped out my mobile phone to take photos while the hotel doormen watched me. They later told me to go ahead and take the photos. I guess that they are already used to seeing such attention given to the supercars parked there. To think that I nearly 'squealed' with delight when I sighted this car that day! Luckily I kept my composure and didn't, haha!

Lamborghini wheels & logo

These are the close up shots of the wheels and tyres of the Twin "Transformers Bumblebee" Lamborghinis that were mentioned in my previous blog post. I heard from a friend that each Lamborghini tyre costs SGD 5,000.00 to replace! Holy wow! A typical Toyota Altis tyre only costs a 'paltry' SGD 80.00+. Super wow!

Here's the wheel and tyre close up of the other Twin Bumblebee Lamborghini. The same friend of mine also told me that the Lamborghini clutch alone costs SGD 20,000 to replace! My goodness, no wonder the Lamborghini remains a dream car for many. If only I too have the luxury of splurging grands of surplus money on such supercars, like the owners of these Twins.

Last but not least is the photo of the "Raging Bull" logo of mighty Lamborghini. I didn't manage to get an even closer shot of this logo because I was separated by a small fence beside the car. There were also a couple of hotel staff stationed nearby, presumably to 'babysit' the supercars and keep them 'safe' from passerbys. People can see, can take photographs but cannot touch, hehe!

Twin "Transformers Bumblebee" Lamborghinis!

These shots were taken early this year and although their colors are a little unusual for real cars, they remain one of my favourite Lamborghini photos that I have taken. I recognised the ‘Bumblebee’ Lamborghini that was parked in front, as the same one I had previously blogged about. It used to have red colored headlights but it looks better now with clear headlights. The previous red headlights gave it an ‘evil’ look. See the earlier post of my first sighting of this ‘Bumblebee’ Lamborghini here.

I recall being very pleasantly surprised, and so were the many passerbys along Orchard that day, to find 2 Lamborghini Murcielago super luxury sports cars painted in the exact same unusual colors. The cars did attract the attention of many passerbys, as evident in the above photo. I had thought that finding a Lotus and a Lamborghini Murcielago in ‘Bumblebee’ colors was already quite exceptional. I didn’t expect to find another Lamborghini Murcielago adorned in ‘Bumblebee’ colors here and both Lamborghinis were parked together on that same day. I was almost reluctant to leave them after taking their photos. My trip to Orchard Road that day had not been in vain!
