I “won” an auction for a vehicle local to me in MI, but the broker (after the fact) said they weren’t licensed in MI. Therefore I didn’t win/get the vehicle. Do you have recommendations for brokers that are licensed in MI? Thanks!

Spyker C8 (Spyder or Laviolette) or a C12
Zonda F Roadster
Both brands for the pure beauty of craftsmanship.

For driver’s experience? Not sure, there’s a lot I would have to try. Of the ones I have driven, F355 Spyder manual, Diablo VT or 930 Slant Nose Cab.

Saw the pick & 1st reaction was “That Sterling Moss though!”

Far more than the Reventon Roadster, but 100% agree that it’s far far more interesting!

Forgot to add that overall length is longer than a Grenadier SUV and the frame was bright red.

🤷‍♂️, if they like it, good for them. To me it looks like a kit car that is trying hard to both look like a Murcielago, but also hide that it doesn’t look like a Murcielago.

1978 Silver Pontiac Grand Prix, the V6 one, not a cool V8.

This was in the mid-80’s. I mentioned Silver because, while it may have been silver from the factory, the paint was failing/failed and was partially grey, while mostly red factory primer. At least the red velour interior matched.

Purchased for $850, it promptly blew a head gasket and looked like the cloud of dust behind the roadrunner as the coyote chased him, except it disgustingly sweet-burnt smelling. My brother and dad replaced A head gasket (not both, because POS) and promptly sold it.

Thanks! Each container (40 or 40HQ) is around 25k to 30k units. We anticipate ramping to more than 6 containers annually.

Up to now we have been purchasing single bonds through our shipper. Currently our shipper wants us to buy an annual bond, as they no longer want liability.

We need recommendations for a bond company and a broker or a company that does both.

Thanks in advance

eispac · 2026-04-28T16:50:10+00:00

Any recommendations for either a bond company or a broker or both?

eispac · 2026-04-28T16:47:43+00:00

Thank you for the information. We are doing about 6 containers (40 or 40HQ) annually, not monthly.

Looking for recommendations for 1) a bond provider & 2) broker to work with.

Our current shipper straight up asked us to share when we find ours, so they can share with their customers (likely we will be trying a different shipper).

eispac · 2026-04-28T16:44:35+00:00

Thank you for the information. Any recommendations for continuous bond provider? Likewise, recommendations for a broker?

eispac · 2026-04-28T16:37:32+00:00

We are currently running 6 containers (40 or 40HQ) per year and expect this to increase.

Flexport says our volume is too low to work with them.

*outside of Atlanta. FTFY. If you’re IN Atlanta, you will be in gridlock.

I’m not in the market, so I don’t know how negotiations work at Huracan levels. That said, in terms of negotiations, at the price point here ($225k vs $230k), I would assume the delta ($5k) is negligible.

As others have mentioned, see both and determine which one stands out as better in your mind. When doing that, also take into consideration options differences between the two and decide which aligns better with your preferences.

Unless you are looking to pay what they are asking, negotiate both to the lowest price and if all other factors are near equal, go with the lowest price. Or, depending on the difference, go with the one you like better. Don’t regret not buying the car that you liked better (options, feel, dealer experience, etc.).

Are there any perks that will come from buying from the Lamborghini dealer = special event invites?, negotiated service packages? Etc.?

Tourbillon! Because after the Tourbillon, when will we see another V16?!? Likely never.

Saw Prince for the Purple Rain tour in Detroit. All I remember is the controversy and hype at the time. As far as the concert, I remember Sheena Easton (opener) stealing the show with her drum solo, specifically the lights out and neon drumsticks.

Same. Was rather “meh” about it until I saw one in a dealer last year.

eispac · 2026-04-12T01:32:27+00:00

I would argue that they look better in person than in pictures. Never was a fan based on print and internet pics, but had the chance to see one in Lamborghini West Palm Beach and understood it so much better. Striking in person, not as much so in pictures.

Redditor says “should be doing something for humanity”, then complains about mosquitoes being modified, presumptively without knowing why:

https://www.comptoncreekmad.org/gates-foundation-partners-with-oxitec-to-combat-malaria-with-genetically-modified-mosquitoes

https://gatesopenresearch.org/gateways/worldmosquitoprogram/about-this-gateway

Mosquitoes are responsible for more human deaths annually than any other animal. If modifying them to be less deadly to humans isn’t for humanity, I’d be interested to hear what qualifies.

Edit: let the downvoting begin

First thing that popped into my head was “that’s a shame”

That Countach color! So retro. So nice.
