Hello everyone ::wave.  I am a Soldier in the U.S. Army ::usa who has finally made it a point to build a replica.  Since I was a child ::bounce I was in love with Lamborghini ::LAMBO.  I will be deploying soon and save up some cash.  Upon my return, I hope to be stationed in Killeen, Tx.  Where I will rent a place with a garage to hopefully begin my project.  The main thing I do not want to cut corners on is the engine, transmission, rims, and tires.  I want it to function as if it were real.  I would appreciate any feedback and tips any of you gentlemen and ladies have for me ::help.  Please have a pleasent day.

V/R,
CountG

I have narrowed it down to: Murcielago, Gallarado, Countach, or Diablo. This will be my first project.  I was trying to get a roundabout estimate on about how much I need to save in order to have the things I listed as originals.

Welcome! You will have plenty of time when you are deployed to do lots of research! Im going to say the cheapest and easiest build would be the Murci roadster. Parts are still available, they will hold there value and with a roadster you can completely forget about door glass if you chose. Just my .02! Good luck, take care and if you need any care packages PM me your address!

Welcome to the chaos!
I hope you know what you are getting yourself into.
It won't be easy.  It won't be quick.  And it won't be cheap.
01Lambiero is correct about the cost.
Don't start unless we can't possibly talk you out of it.
But if you insist, good luck to you and stay here and at www.kitcentral.com (http://www.kitcentral.com) for all the advice you need.
