Well look at all those people! I'm surprised. I just assumed they were more automated. You'd think that with all that labor, you'd pay a few guys to wet sand the cars, Gallardos have BMW levels of orange peel, nothing like Rollers or Bentleys. Not that anyone driving a Lamborghini really gives a thought to the paint quality (or the nav interface).
