Yellow Ferrari F430 II

Now this is an exceptional Ferrari photo because it was taken while I stopped my car at a traffic lights junction. Yes I was driving that day and I had just stopped at the red lights when this yellow Ferrari F430 pulled up in front of my car. I quickly whipped out my mobile phone and snapped this photo. It was a great shot as this was the best zoom that my 2-year old 2-megapixel camera mobile phone could manage. As usual, sighting a supercar made me very happy for the rest of the day!

Grey Lamborghini Gallardo Superleggera

This was the first time I saw this model of Lamborghini in person. When I took these photos in front of Meritus Mandarin Hotel, I did realise that it looks a bit different from the normal Gallardo, besides having the obvious spoiler at the back. The boot has a glass cover that allows you to see the powerful twin engines inside! Now that's a really cool feature!

It was only much later that I learnt that this model is known as the Superleggera, a variant of the Gallardo just like the Spyder. It is also distinguished by a black stripe on each side of the car and black wheel rims, giving it a street rally car image. I like the 'titanium' shade of grey on this Superleggera. I'm sure this color will also look fantastic on the normal Gallardo!

Yellow Lamborghini Gallardo Spyder

Oh I love seeing yellow Lamborghinis and it's the trademark color of this brand of supercar! This is my 2nd sighting of the Lamborghini Gallardo Spyder, the 1st one being a white one in front of Meritus Mandarin Hotel some months ago. Though I not usually a big fan of convertibles, I really love this model simply because it is a Lamborghini, haha!

Whenever I am lucky enough to see a Lamborghini while I'm at Orchard Road or wherever, I will feel so thrilled that my elated feeings last all the way home. I'd also admire the Lamborghini photos that I had just taken with my mobile phone that day while on the way home in the public transport. It's a feeling like striking the lottery for me!

Orange Lamborghini Gallardo II

Spotting this bright-colored Lamborghini Gallardo was a pleasant for me! I was passing by Tangs on my way home and parked right in front of Marriot Hotel was this orange Gallardo! At first, no one else seemed to be interested in this supercar parked there. It was only after I finished taking these photos did other people start snapping photos of it too. This is my 2nd orange Gallardo sighting but it's not the same car as the 1st one I saw before.

This is my first Lamborghini sighting at Tangs/Marriot Hotel and I seldom pass by this way too. It was a bit tricky taking the front view photos of this Lamborghini because I had to stand in the middle of the hotel service road. Incoming vehicles kept coming in round a blindspot bend, so I had to watch out for them as I took these shots. Luckily I didn't had to wait long for the service road to be clear for safe photography!

Yellow Lamborghini Gallardo

The yellow Gallardo is a popular trademark model of the Lamborghini. It's like the Lamborghini has to be in yellow in color, just as the Ferrari has to be red color. This night photo was taken at usual supercar viewing hotspot, Meritus Mandarin Hotel.

I was about to head for home after doing some shopping at Orchard Road when I chanced upon this wonderful surprise sighting. Although I usually look forward to seeing a Lamborghini whenever I'm at Orchard Road, I learnt to leave it to fate to surprise me instead and it does that! My trip to Orchard Road that day had been fruitful with these photos!

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!
