Some Gallardo owners are eliminating the AWD with the Gallardo Balboni kit.... It's a easy modification with OEM parts worth $500.... I like my car AWD but they like better because it's lighter (200 pounds) and the car "drives better" The LP550 is already RWD and the Gallardo Balboni edition is RWD too

Some people just hate everything you and your car stand for.. As I mentioned in a previous post I have a friend who bought a 430 and sold it after 6 months because of the haters.. It got to the point where the wife would not ride in the car with him. And this is in LA!

^Phillip, I would not have expected LA to be like that! There are so many exotic cars in LA...
I have been flipped off as well for doing nothing more than driving a pcar!

I was chased down, honked at and flipped off by a prius driver on the 580 here in the bay area. He didn't like the sound of my europipe as I passed him pulling from 60-85. I gave him a smile and a wave but man was he pissed LMAO!!

Dude, I've found prius drivers are judgmental by nature. Several years ago we leased a Hummer H3, awesome car btw, and my next door neighbor who drives a prius came over and asked "did you buy that or just rent it for the weekend?". When I told her it was a 3 yr lease she nearly fainted, she said "you know we're trying to keep the carbon footprint of the neighborhood low".. really LMFAO!!! so the next day I went out and bought a "I club baby seals" bumper sticker for the hummer, that doesn't increase the carbon footprint now does it LOL!!!

HOV hogs
While we're on the subject of Prius drivers, I just love how they tend to hog the left lane any time of the day (not just HOV hours) and then sit there at 5 mph over the limit like they own it.

I'm really glad I am not the only one that sees folks driving the prius to be sanctimonious while out on the roads......I can't tell you how many times I approach one and they always start speeding up, slowing down, cutting me off or doing something so questionable.......
I just don't get it........leaves me baffled on a daily basis......seems like they're always causing trouble somehere

Something wrong with those Prius guys, especially in LA. Either they insist in driving on the left lane at 30 mph below limit (maybe they are built with some type of magnet somewhere), or they insist in passing you... Those electrical waves must affect the brain of drivers.
