Whats wrong with Lamborghini?
lamborghini makes great cars, but whenever I comment a lambo being superior, somebody always have to raise the Ferrari Flag for comparsion...
for instance, their entry level sports car, gallardo and f430
top speed wise, they are dead even (taken from top gear)
looks wise, im sure more people will agree that lambos look better(altho highly subjective)
engine sound wise, lambos has it hands down!
why can they get their act together on the suspension and handling of the car? once they fix that up and they will have the *perfect* car..

G handles pretty well I thought. Lambo's desirability is best shown by it's price. You can get them at MSRP but never on F cars.
I think F car sound better than Lambo. Lambo has a deeper sound that is brute where F is just right.

They can immediately make their cars lighter and handle better by switching back to RWD. Audi won't hear of that though...

Why does Lambo need to get their act together on suspension work? They have beaten Ferrari on nearly every track, including hockenheim, and Nurburgring, and many others. Top Gear, is a joke, as they test cars in the wet and dry and classify them together, such as the Gallardo was tested in the wet.
To me, the Lambos are in a class above Ferrari, always have been.

There's something make Lamborghinis unique...as Ferrari anyway.
The first ones have a more original touch than F-cars.
I'm not saying Lambos are better looking than Ferraris but I would ever own a bull!
Nothing to say against both car perfomances...Maybe the F is more precise during corners thanks to the RWD

The G's suspension and handling is perfect right out of the box
The car does nothing wrong even when pushed to the limits
I tried to upset the car's suspension many times when I had my G but all the car did was reward me with precise and spot on handling

everybody has different taste and different views, and the arguing or debating it's what makes the forums. Love Ferraris and Lambos, but I since I was a kid I have a special Love for Porsches.
