need your opinions on a trade in

trade our pristine 2002 silver/black small cf package gt2 with 6800miles + $105K + (tax on $105K) for an 03 6speed black/black murcielago with polished/chrome OEM wheels and "chip, exhaust, stereo system w/ DVD player, reverse camera, tire pressure monitors, and Park distance sensors" with 500 miles.

what are your opinions? thanks!

The Murci has more *wow* factor, but the GT2 is probably the better performer.

Take that with a grain of salt as I have driven neither car.

Is the Lambo worth $225K? If so, then get it!

Murc's already have tons of problems stock ... add an aftermarket chip and exhaust plus the gangsta who put chrome wheels on it as the previous owner ... Well, at least you can watch DVD's while it's in the shop ?

Maybe I'm alone here, but I would take a GT2 over a Murcielago any day.

On paper, the murci actually kills the gt2, beleive it or not. I have driven both cars and although the power and the 4wd of the murci is incredible, the gt2 is easier to drive fast. plus, im not so worried about driving a p-car hard, whereas, its frightening takling the murcie to the limit.

sorry if i was unclear about that. The car has OEM wheels in the optional chrome/fully polished finish. the car does not have aftermarket ghetto wheels.

Keep your GT2 for another year, save up for a CGT.
