33,000 miles, 3 owners and a new clutch?

Yeah, supercar clutch replacement is I think what eventually drove Leno towards buying Porsche. The Carrera GT has something like an 80,000 mile service interval on its clutch, vs the Lambo and Ferrari offerings...

$59,500 Buy It Now for a 10-year-old Lambo that needs $50,000 worth of work?

Methinks he's still on whatever it was that caused the crash.

Present owner had videos of him driving it in snow..

It's cool to see someone actually use a car, but that's not necessarily someone I'd buy a car from.

The "clean" title is certainly interesting.

Technically, the situation in the middle east is "repairable".

It says CAR WILL START UP AND MOVE UNDER ITS OWN POWER

Do you think the average woman would notice if I fixed the front with paper maché and spray paint?

IIRC you only get 8 launches out of each Murcielago clutch, and the clutch kit for it is about $20k

Throw it all in a Fiero. Problem solved.

Quite a bit more then that on non OEM clutchs. 15K is about the expected life of a OEM clutch which I have no idea how they are so terrible.

Checked the dimensions, its a foot too wide and a foot too much wheelsbase. So line up the front axles, and box flare the E36 M3 out of it, with extra big box flares covering up the old rear wheel openings

Only if you use hundred dollar bills instead of newspaper.
