I would agree with the above poster. I would take f430. I also think the new lp560 is one of the best cars for sale right now. The white one with the wire mesh wheels is so sick.

I know most people who own these don't care too much about the cost of service, but I'm curious -- what's the difference in cost between the two?

I am not a huge Murcielago fan, and being the big-boy V12, it's tough to fit in with the smaller, more agile/peppy V8 lineup.

Assuming it's a NON-LP640 Murci, I would put it between the Gallardo and the 360. If it's an LP640, I would put it between the LP560 and the F430.

Miami Vice - Just wondering, but aren't "Spyders" from Lambo, and "Spiders" from Ferrari? Maybe I'm wrong, maybe there is no "correct" answer. But also, isn't the 550 a "Maranello" vs "Marinello"?

I dont know why you guys vote for the LP560 first and secound the f430, please my friend the 3 gallardos aout there, lp560, superlagera, and ls, can be even close to the f430, i drove the 3 lambos, and now i have the f430, and the ferrari is the better car that you can drive and get fun, but if you like a very expesive AUDI go with the Lambo...

I had a Gallardo for 2 years and a 360 for 2 years. I also drove an F430 for about 5 hours. The F430 has incredible handling and is easier to drive than a Gallardo. However, the Gallardo is well designed, has superior build quality and looks so much cooler, IMO. I would definitely take a Gallardo over a 360 or F430.

Both F430 and gallardo are superb car. Both cars are relatively easy to drive. The Gallardo have pretty stiff brake so it is not too friendly on slow speed braking. The F430 is easier to drive in a busy city like london. Style wise the Gallardo will attract more attention. Since you will only rent it for the weekend either car will be an awesome choice.
