Just sharing my Saturday's drive. It's going to snow in like a few weeks, so maybe this is my last drive this year.

Mom & kid were staring at the Lambo:

Dude shouted 'wow':

I parked the car in a closed valet parking while shopping. Nobody dared to park theirs next to mine. People were nice today. You can see the paint gleaming from the coconut wax. I waxed the wheels and calipers too with hardcore silicone wax & coconut for extra depth.

Looks sharp! Are you sad when you can't take it out for several months?

Why don't you have continuing stripes on the hood?

Are those verde mantis colored calipers? They look great with the white.

Thanks! The northern part of Japan like Hokkaido or Aomori get a thick snow for a few months, but the area I live near Tokyo usually get some snow for only a couple of months. Sometimes it doesn’t even snow much like last year. So most likely I won’t be driving it for a couple of months at most. When I miss driving the car, I just go to my garage, sit in it, and when I’m sure nobody is around, I make vrooom sounds :)

About the stripes, I used to have continuing stripes on the hood. I removed it because they make the hood look small. They make the car look like a Ferrari than a Lambo. I think this car should not have double stripes on the hood; it probably can get away with single but not double stripes.

Thanks! Yes, the color of the calipers match the same green stitching for the interior. The calipers held pretty well after all these years. Still in pristine condition with very little scratches. Maybe it’s because I avoid driving in gravels and always wax the surface thicker than females makeup :)
