Melbourne - Buying the Yellow Lamborghini Gallardo Spyder

Melbourne - Buying the Yellow Lamborghini Gallardo Spyder - We visited the Lamborghini Melbourne showroom in search of our ideal car and we finally found it! It was a successful trip! It was a difficult decision to choose between the Lamborghini Murcielago and the Lamborghini Gallardo as both cars were such beautiful machines. In the end, we decided on the Gallardo as it was much easier to drive and control the car on the whole. However, I must say I really love the Murcielago's scissor doors which makes the car look extremely grand, special and cool!

Melbourne's Federation Square - A visit to Melbourne is only complete with a visit to Melbourne's famous Federation Square which is the centre of cultural attractions, world class exhibitions and tourists' attractions! It was a lovely day and we enjoyed the bustling scene with a hot mocha.

Melbourne City - The weather was pretty gloomy, rainy with strong gusts of winds when I was there. I was contemplating buying a colorful windmill just to brighten up my day. They are so cute!

Before flying to Melbourne, I visited Jeric Salon @ ION Orchard to perm my hair. I must say they did an amazing job as my hair has such beautiful curls naturally after every wash without even applying any hair product. I love my hair as it looks beautiful without me fussing over it. Thanks JERIC Salon!

The yellow Lamborghini Gallardo Spyder - Don't laugh but the number plate on the car is pretty evil! Initially I wanted to hide it from everyone but since I'm gonna change the number plate soon, I decided to show the world how ridiculously funny it is. No offense to anyone, I do not wish to be associated with the Devil in any way but below is what everyone was laughing and joking about...

VGR 666 = "The Devil needs Viagra!" 

However, intellectually speaking, most Lamborghinis have the numbers 666 due to Lamborghini's proud history of making the Lamborghini Diablo between 1990 and 2001 which is the very first Lamborghini capable of attaining the top speed of more than 320km/h. Diablo means "devil" in Spanish! However, the Lamborghini Diablo was replaced by the Lamborghini Murcielago after the end of its production run in 2001.

The Lamborghini Gallardo Spyder - This car costs twice as much as my Ferrari F360 Spider but in terms of comfort, the Lamborghini beats the Ferrari hands down. It has a luxurious interior and feels less bumpy than the Ferrari. It is also a quieter car unlike the loud Tubi exhaust installed on my Ferrari.

For long distance, the Lamborghini was a better choice compared to the Ferrari. We drove the Lamborghini Gallardo Spyder back to Sydney which took more than 12 hours. It was a long and exhausting drive so we stopped over at Canberra to rest for a night halfway.

I am very lucky as this car has its GPS Navigation system as well as rear end cameras fitted. With the reversing camera, parking is a breeze! Interestingly, this car also has a front lifting mechanism so I can raise the height of the car when overcoming dips and steep driveways. It is such a beautiful car, don't you agree? This utterly gorgeous car is definitely a head turner as well as a beauty to keep!

SYDNEY - Ferrari Club Australia Sunday Drive to Woy Woy :)

SYDNEY- Ferrari Club Australia - I flew to Sydney for 2 days just to attend the Ferrari Club NSW Sunday Drive to Woy Woy which is about 1.5 hours away from Sydney City. It was a beautiful Sunday where there was ample sunshine yet cooling at the same time. I enjoyed the relaxing drive in our Ferrari F360 Spider. I love this car as it is really a perfect combination of beauty and power. This gorgeous car has a phenomenal sound and spine tingling performance. It is also much easier to drive compared to a Lamborghini.

The agreed plan was for all Ferrari Club members to meet at the Old Toll Gates at Berowra and my sincere apologies to all for being the last one to arrived. We kinda got lost along the way as we are still pretty new to Sydney compared to the rest of the Aussies. Most of the time, we only hang out in Sydney City where we live at Townhall and only drive out of the city to explore occasionally. It was a beautiful sight to see all the Ferrari car owners gather and drive along the road together.

We drove over amazingly beautiful lakes, higher mountain terrains and long expressways at high speeds. It was nice to drive over long distance without having the need to stop at many traffic lights. The destination chosen was a nice and cozy restaurant called Yum Yum with spectacular views of Hardys Bay waters and boats. The food was simply delicious and the Hot Mocha Coffee at the nearby cafe was excellent too!

It was an enjoyable Sunday brunch and coffee where I managed to catch up with my Ferrari Club friends who love beautiful cars and we discuss the next short holiday to Hunter Valley in July 2013. You could tell all of them love Ferrari as some of them were dressed in Ferrari jackets, polo tees and a lady was also wearing a sexy yellow Ferrari top. Having none of those, I dressed in a red dress! I was kinda sad that I did not managed to join the previous Ferrari Club event as I was in Singapore working as each lady received a custom made Gold plated Ferrari Necklace which featured the Ferrari's famed Prancing Horse! It was specially made by a well known Jeweller exclusively for Ferrari Club members.

During this trip, we also drove to check out a yellow Lamborghini Gallardo Spyder but I didn't quite like the Performante stripes as I thought it was too loud. I prefer cars that are original without any major modifications as I think they look much better and classy. What I love most about this Lamborghini is its carbon fiber Alcantra steering wheel and the comfortable leather seats with yellow stichings. Anyhow, it is really difficult and rare to find a yellow Lamborghini Gallardo Spyder in Australia and it has been months since we have been looking to buy one. Hopefully, soon...
