Its weird, but i agree with the fractions of a second issues...I just dont really care with this car. When i want to go insanely, aftermarket tuned, *****-out fast i have other cars for that :-)
Exactly.. The fact that a turbo is gonna get me by a car or two to 100 dont mean NOTHING to me anymore. The past 7 cars have been go-fast stuff and the Lamborghini is something totally different.

I guess you can compare it like this also:

my brother rides bikes and is heavily into them. He has a few Harleys that are done up pretty nice. He has one Harley for road trips, he has another to go to work, and he also has one of those Jesse James choppers that is sick. The stock Harleys ride so much better and they are about the same speed. But the Jesse James bike is something that he gets on and feels good.


IMO, the Gallardo is a great car. But if the cops were chasing me I would rather be in one of my old Turbos. But Thats not the case anymore for me. I wanted something exotic and thats what I got.

Congrats! Nice ride, I like the black on black, and for the price difference on a 560 do the TT conversion... send it down to Jason Heffner for a TT He has a nice 800 and 1000hp packages that are wicked fast....you will have your boost thrill back....
