Brutal more anonymous FI RWD track machine that can be used on the street vs. a little more civilised exotic N/A AWD street car that can be used on the track.
It all depends on what you are looking for

Performance
Well, performance-wise between the three (GT2/X50/Gallardo). I agree the Gallardo has quite a bit of bling factor, although ... perhaps just too much attention? Or would you say that there is no such thing?
