So far so good, it feels really heavy and I can't see out the front well. But the e-gear shifting is pretty nice and convenient, the downshifts are amazing. I find myself downshifting for no reason lol

Tell me about the attention, its insane. I feel like a celebrity! But being in So Cal, these types of cars are kinda common.

Please write up some comments comparing Gallardo to TT; performance, agility, stability, cornering.....is there anything you miss about your TT?

Stock for stock, power wise, the cars perform similarly. But once the turbo was opened up with an exhaust and tune, it certainly feels faster than a stock Gallardo. The turbo was more agile, the G feels quite heavy, but very stable at higher speeds, probably because it's wider and lower. During cornering, they both feel very planted and I can enter and exit a corner without a sweat, both ride like they are on rails.

I don't like the seating position, mainly because I'm short, so I have a hard time seeing over the dash pod . It's difficult to make u-turns, and it's impossible see objects on the right or left using the rear window.

I miss the power, the light weight feel of the turbo, the 6 speed manual gearbox and the excellent overall visibility.

Music for ears....for a TT owner.

Any aspects that a TT totally suck on, compared to Gallardo?

Honestly, not really. Besides the exotic appearance, the performance of a slightly modified turbo can't be beat.
