Ed (IG: @edbolian) has been working on getting his latest dream manual LP640 ready to drive but the seemingly easy task of having a shop paint it a different color has gotten much more complicated than expected.

It’s dailydrivenExotics
Hi
So cool
Ed's voice is probably the most calming voice ive ever heard
I'm frankly aroused
More like the most condescending voice I’ve ever heard!
Then maybe Ed can sell you a car ?
"He quit his job because he was having so much fun driving his Porsche..." - Damn I want to be in that position someday.
Have you ever heard the term "Paint Jail" very common on complete paint jobs. Typically, complete paint jobs are not the bread and butter of paint shops so they tend to take back seat to the day to day in and out jobs. Throw in the fact the advertising the shop gets by having an exotic sitting in their shop and not surprised by your story. I have heard this story many times and 90% of the time the car is only returned when the owner gets fed up.
Interesting never heard of this
No, it's chassis shop jail, where they keep your car for YEARS while they sell parts off of it, spend your money on other people's projects(because they're doing the same thing to other people, too), and otherwise screw you out of every dime you spend. Then they call you up needing another 10k to 'continue' on your project or it'll get "put on hold until you send a payment". This keeps happening as long as the owner continues to pay or finally gets fed up and goes and gets their car that's now missing half the stuff it went there with, has had no work done, and all your money was spent so there's nothing to refund to you, either. Yea. It happens all the time.
It's a common story in the drag racing world and I'm sure it's common in other forms of motorsports as well.
Happened to me, took 9 months to paint my classic mustang and the original estimate was only 2.
LAst tiMe I wAs tHiSs eArLy
@@JC-11111 Sounds like Hennessey lol
That feeling when Ed threatens to ruin your life on the internet.
or brag about what he doesnt have yet.
Um, it was enough of a threat for me to post a disclaimer that I wasn't the rat who went to the paint shop and let them know Ed was a big RUclipsr.
I would break down crying and just give up yo. The pressure I feel would be higher that a V12 piston on compression stroke
Yeah but that's how you get stuff done, they still did quality work tho so the shop is still good
I mean it smart of the shop to do the best work possiable if there already past the time.
Yeah, yeah, I am sort of excited about your Lamborghini. But I am so crazy excited about that boat Expedition I cannot contain myself.
It is definitely the project car of the year.
I'm so old I actually remember those things. Saw them in car mags when they were making them, And remember thinking Why?
@@SIXPACFISH its not a real car from the 90's or 2000's unless you have to ask why it was built and never recieve a satisfying answer.
The most incredible part of this video is that Expedition thing. Absolutely needs to be covered Ed!
Documenting your project cars is one of the best ways to use our free VINwiki app. Be sure to download it today!
Is an N/A subaru worthy of documentation on VinWiki?
@@laughingskullinc Yes. All types of cars are in their app.
Absolutely. We have over 160 million cars documented with at least some data in the app.
All due respect lately both my android devices refuse Vinwiki to work and its upsetting! I need to update my garage!!! 😂
@@jeffuclyptis771 mine crashes the app a lot so I just use it on my laptop
I had the pleasure of riding in a purple lp640 6-speed 9 years ago. Ive told myself ever since that happened that if I hit the lotto or get a dream job its the 1st car im buying as soon as its possible. I can see why this man has/had multiple.
I just wanted to take a second to mention that I discovered your channel roughly 3 months ago or so. Since then I’ve gone all the way back to the very beginning and watched every single video you have uploaded to this day. And today as of right now I have caught up with all videos and I have been able to connect and relate to many videos and it has truly been awesome to watch them all.
You have no idea how much this channel means to me, so therefore I would like you to keep going and keep up the excellent work and the awesome stories. Hopefully one day I can be on here and share a bunch of car stories that I have myself. I have owned a few cars myself, and I used to have a RUclips channel that had 8000 subscribers. I had to abandon it and start fresh. But anyway thank you so much and hello to everyone at Vinwiki and those who have shared stories on here.
Last time I was this early, the police were still in hot pursuit of George and Jeff.
Just another typical day at VinWiki 😂😂😂 love the Color!!!
"Body Shop Hell" You drop your car off, the techs immediately disassemble and start the process. This very common step keeps the owner from picking the car up and taking it to another shop. Process continues as the body shop pushes your car off in the corner and continue to repair collisions (insurance=bread and butter). Your car sits there as "fill in" work and gets ignored for months. Finally after threats and legal consultation the body shop gets busy on the car. Discovers missing parts and tacks on $$$ to the bill; I.e. "Body Shop Extortion".
Aaaaand that's why you learn how to do it yourself or make good friends with a bodywork and paint guy.
Ouchh this Verde Draco, as I said in other VinWiki videos is the most beautiful high end paint and color for a Murci, and the fact they did an astonishing job is worth the wait, because exotic cars, especially the high end models, like the V12 Lamborghini high end model at the time was the Murcielago, they get the best paint job in the factory, layers on layers of expensive paint sprayed. the car looks stunning, the color is the rarest, like Top Gear test Murci was crashed, and a few others only have it, and I guess in person it is just fabulous, since Ed says they did a great job, it should be as good as the factory Lamborghini paint job. Congratulations.
So new lesson...DON'T MESS WITH ED.
Ed, the only guy that could make a year long paint job sounds so pleasurable. Thank you for the diner, dive and cheap motel reference...still my dream.
Thanks for the shoutout Ed! The AP3 team enjoyed the trip out to Arizona and the LP640 is just jaw dropping in person.
That color is stunning through the computer screen, I can only imagine what its like in person
When I saw the Top Gear episode on the Murcielago I thought if I ever had the money to buy one, I'd want one in that color. I'm surprised that no one ordered a Murcielago in that color in the US. This is by far the best looking Murcielago coupe in the country. Thanks.
I'm just as excited as you are for this car!!
Thanks. So glad to have it back.
It may have taken longer than expected, Ed, but it looks like it was totally worth it! It's classy, elegant, unique, and bad to the bone! I find it hard to believe that nobody in the States ordered a Verde Draco LP640! It looks SO appropriate for the car! I would have the interior done with diamond-pattern stitching in the same colored thread, as well! Cheers!
I love the longer form videos with Edd. He is 100% the type of guy you want to go to dinner with and listen to for hours.
I love the fact that Ed not only owns a Murcielago but he owns one with a 6-speed gated manual
Now that’s frickin cool!
he protecc
he attacc
but most important
gated shifter goes clacc

90's disposable cup graphics on the side.... LOL! Pretty much exactly what I was thinking. 😆👍
Hey Ed I have a cool story for you. When my uncle was a teenager he bought himself a Trans Am (I believe it was his first car), but eventually he decided to sell it. Years and years later he saw a Trans Am on the side of the road that looked just like his old one, with a for sale sign on it. He stopped to check it out and low and behold it was HIS old car. So he bought it and has been working on fixing it up ever since
He and my aunt actually collaborated on a kids book about it
Groovy story. Hopes he gets it back to factory fresh. 👍
The last time I was this early, people were still paying extra for automatics.
LAst tiMe I wAs tHiSs eArLy
Ed, I had similar experience with a recommended indi Audi (VAGen) garage, but it was a mechanical engine work on my Audi. Recommended as far as they work only on these brands, but I saw some negative things on the Audi forum. Left the car, and it took 3 months , all the bad things I read online happened, and it was a headache. Finally car was fixed properly, and in your case, I can say the LP640 looks stunning, it is siiik, insane color. Congrats on the choice, not only it is rare, but is looks amazing, and since it is done perfectly in and out, the car will look just like out of the factory (whatever green) Murci. I love it, it was worth it 100%
I'm wondering what ed thinks about Alex Choi's new Lamborghini design
For the sake of getting attention on the internet, it is perfect.
That kid Alex is a cancer. He's everything wrong with the digital generation.
The Lambo factory sent a destroy code to the ECU's. Non authorized modification.
Ed DeBolt lol
Edward Agora Feenman trust fund kids are nothing new. Blaming the younger generation is the lamest tradition elders partake in. Maybe find problems before jumping to (mostly unfounded) generalizations.
These videos just make my day!!
I lost it @ 10:04 😂
I can't wait to watch the other stories tying this one together.
I love my mornings thanks to Vinwiki. These stories are the best
Thanks so much! Have a great day.
Ed, this should be a “forever” car for you. I love the color...soooo slick
At first I had doubts about the color! Thinking it was not the best choices but actually seeing the car, WOW!!!! It goes perfectly and beautifully. Congrats on getting your car back!
"I'm not threatening that... but I WILL do that!" haha love it. You don't piss off Ed!
Never heard the descriptor "Tectonic" before, But it is Awesome! Ed can give Rabbit a run for his money when it comes to turning a damn phrase.
Tavarish gets the "hand-me -down Lambo bumper". LOL.
"tectonic workpace" - I loled hard! New favourite expression!
Way to tease MULTIPLE stories. You are an absolute legend ED.
Congrats Ed on finally getting it back. The color is amazing and the car is stunning. Thanks for sharing.
I need that color on my truck! Man, she’s clean! Glad to see you finally got a few steps closer to completion, Ed!
Verde Draco is my all time favorite color for the Murcie. It really sucks how few there are in manual in that color (-> $$$) so in the event that I somehow manage to gain possession of a stick LP640, I would do EXACTLY what you did Ed. Awesome video! Gave me some inspiration today
Ed, I drove an original Verde Draco Murcielago back in 2007 when the LP640 came out. At the time, I was living and studying in London and was working as a vallet at a luxury department store during the weekends. I actually found out a few years ago an old video on RUclips of the same car I drove being crashed. I couldn't believe it. It was this one: ruclips.net/video/pRvHV7pUmAc/видео.html
Love the channel, keep up the good work.
Congrats Ed! love the color and it looks great!
"tectonic work pace" HAHAHA
Truly.
Been waiting for this vid... keep up the great work!!
Thanks so much. Will definitely be putting some big miles on it this year.
Eddie & Freddy need a “FATE OF THE FURIOUS” rally,that would be EPIC🤓
Congrats Ed👍
I will run it down to Orlando once he gets it done.
thats an incredible paint job, definately the right company for the job, i understand the time was a little nutz but you cannot put a price on qualityof that standard, considering its a complete color change. congrats on the accomplishment.
The man the myth the legend himself... Ed Bolian
Did you say....manual....ROADSTER? In Verde Draco!? Your car turned out great!
Ed’s stories are definitely my favorite.
I think "tectonic work pace" has to be one of my favourite phrases ever! 🤣
It looks beautiful. I'm glad it's finally done!
One of my Top 5 favorite VinWiki videos!
Very excited for you! Can’t wait to hear more about it and see some content
7:36 the car is drop dead gorgeous in the sunlight.
Ed stories are always on point, Love this channel.
i clicked on this before GOONZQUAD & TAVARISH. been waiting to see how ed's lp640 would turn out. you know ed is gonna do it right and its gona look amazing!
Congratz Ed, the car looks amazing! I can't wait for the full driving-home-video!
Great color choice ...stunning!.Kind of reminds me of the storyline of “the Money Pit”every time contractor was asked how long...2 weeks!!Sounds like a house renovation project...starts out like a new marriage ...everyone’s excited in the beginning and as project progresses it goes overtime and over budget.by the end you and your contractor are like an old married couple who can’t wait to part ways.You just hope that the finished product was worth it...I’m glad that your finished product was worth all the stress...Enjoy!!
Beautiful car Ed! That color is stunning! Any chance you could make a Vinwiki episode where you walk us around it and review it?
It's nice to see cars like that actually being DRIVEN. Excelsior!
Seeing Ed driving in his LP640 makes me feel claustrophobic. 😂
Totally can relate to this. Past November I flew to Vegas and drove my dark gray '14 Audi S7 1500+ miles home solo. By far best decision ever, would do it again in a heartbeat.
Your always taking me to school Ed. Never even knew that color existed. Beautiful!
Still waiting for Doug Demuro to come down and tell some stories
He will spend 20 minutes showing all the quirks of the set.
@@birkenstockresouler XD
Chris Livingston let me show you why this is NOT, the best channel on RUclips!
I don’t know why you all guys like him he is so annoying.
Awa Hady because we simply can.
It would be interesting to get this story from the paint shop's perspective. It's hard to believe that this went the way they intended.
Man that color is just amazing! Great work!
Glad you got your baby booger green lambo home safe and sound. Just giving you a hard time bud looks great! See ya soon!
Beautiful LP640!
90's disposal cup design XD
Edit: Congrats on getting the car back ED. Now it's time to enjoy it! Maybe post a video of it!
I like the color, the best things take time. Unfortunetly body shop work usually ends up like your story. Manual Murci is the one to get, you got a nice one.
Beautiful car Ed, best of Luck I hope it brings you enjoyment
A roadtrip with doug. WHY WASN'T THIS FILMED!!!!!! I bet it was epic. Would have loved to see him buy that funky soon-to-be radwood star. We need a story from doug about this road trip if something interesting happened.
We got some good clips and will stitch them into something longer at some point.
Happiest little Porsche on VINWiki at 8:17. I love cars that grin.
LOL, damning Innovative Auto Collision with faint praise! Great paint work, but turn around time is measured in geological increments!
"90's disposable cup graphics on the side"...that shit was clever!
The paint work looks SICK! Love It!
She's just gorgeous, Ed, and trust me, entirely worth the wait to have a quality job done.
Ed you officially live an amazing life
Nick! That motorcycle story is one of my favorites.
Mine too.
Nick is such a funny dude
I've seen the aussie car around the city here in Sydney, the colour looks really good
"Tectonic work pace" killed me somehow lol.. Good one.
The color is incredible. Glad it came out so perfect!
Don’t fuck with Ed’s cars. Vinwiki squad will come knocking. This isn’t a game 😄
Beautiful color. Surprised to hear so few chose it.
The sponsors placement by Ed>>>>
Been so excited for this story!
Another great video Ed loved your channel since the valet stories... Keep it up and the Verde Draco looks amazing
Daddy Ed looks so handsome in his new Lamborghini 😩👌
That color is gorgeous, nice choice!
The color looks even better in person. Saw it at caffeine and octane oof so scrumptious
I love that color green. Good choice.
Have you heard of Simon George and his orange manual Murcielago? Which has approaching 300,000 miles on it! It sometimes features in Evo magazine. He is based in the Uk and runs 6th gear (a supercar driving experience company). You should look him up as he's into epic journeys and recently travelled through Scandinavia in his Lambo. He also ran a white manual LP640 and put 40,000 miles on that too!
I'm the only one excited about that expedition huh? I love garage hack jobs like these. A guy from my old job had a home converted, convertible Dodge Charger with a fully functional power top
That color is absolutely spectacular on the LP640...reminds me of my first new car, 1999 mercury cougar in Spruce Green. Damn near exact match!! This was Well worth the wait, money well spent!! 👍🏽 Kudos!
It took my body shop a little over ten months for bodywork and paint on 1971 Monte Carlo, I’m surprised it only took ten months to repaint that beauty.
Hey, Ed, as "One of us over here" in Arizona, I "DID NOT" go into the paint shop and tell them who you were. I did offer in the comments of one of the videos to drive it out for you, but I'm not going into a paint shop needlessly. (Had my own snafu with some dill-weed rear ending my Jetta in bumper to bumper traffic when he shouldn't be in the diamond lane.)
Worst colors to keep clean-> white & black. Easiest-> silver.
Yes finally an update!
love these stories man
That paint job is amazing
