06 Gallardo
1. g

or 2. murci

i suggest the g since i always found the murcis to be too long an odd compared to the g, still a nice car but does not have the aesthetic appeal of a gallardo. and a 2004 gallardo can be had for what 130's, now. they drop quick but who cares, they are supposed to be driven. thats the prob with ferraris, they are bought as investments. forget that, buy it and drive the hell out of it.

Im not so sure about light tho, lambos are heavy for the most part, but sure footed as a 997TT with their AWD. I think the gallardo se is the top contender here, and only contender for that matter, hands down.
Its very hard for me to believe that anyone who has had any real seat time in a cs could say they are nothing special. I have driven and owned a lot of very high hp cars and there is no doubt the cs is not only special, its a beautifully balanced car and if you know how do drive beyond tq, is a very rewarding drive.

But if you can afford a Murci, I would go cgt. Prices are falling like a hard rain.

I hav e never driven a cs, and believe they are prob balanced, just not as fast as i would want from the numbers i have seen. the 'nothing special' was refering to its looks. i have seen them in person etc, and didnt feel like it did anything aesthetically for me. a porsche, yea, and a lambo, yea, they do more for me in person. not to say ferrari isnt good, but the reliability of porsche and lambo, along with performance and looks are just my cup of tea so to speak. i have heard a lot of bad stories with ferraris and thats one reason i will likely not buy one. porsches and lambos get the vote from me.

Yea it would be nice if they were RWD, or at least had the AWD system that Porsche uses on their cars. i think what i have on my C4 would be better for it, or even the new AWD system from the turbo which can push 100% to either axle.

Vincent, I would say the CS. Among other reasons, it's also the slowest depreciating! But it would be the most harsh for daily driving. How often will you drive the car, and for what? If it's your daily driver, a Gallardo SE might be a better choice. Either way, I would stay away from the Murci and 360.

there are guys on lambo-power who have converted the gallardo to RWD, just as the turbo can be. You might want to do a search
