the smarter move would have been to make this a RWD car, with super light components..

just so you guy's understand ....
the Gallardo is probably THE best exotic super car in the current market

yea, the Murci looks better, or the enzo might be faster, but the gallardo is 100x more reliable..

it's extremely comfortable, it has a beautiful exhaust note, and is priced very well..

also, ferrari is producing the Dino, so lambo will have to make something for that, but i would personally get the R8 ovr it , unless they make it RWD only , as i've said before.. now that would be sick

what do u think is better ?
and what would you base your choice on ?
i sell these cars for a living, and i am basing my decision on personally driving the cars for a weekend, and by speaking to customers that actually own them....

I would agree with Steve. In terms of price vs performance vs looks vs comfort, the Gallardo would be on the top. As far as simply being the best? I'd say F40, but that's a personal choice. Objectively---Gallardo.

i personally think that of all time, the best super car is the carrera GT...
but , come to our showroom, and you will seethat after an hour in the car, you become uncomfortable

we had a saleen s7, and one salesman literally got stuck in the car, and he wasn't even that fat

dont even try to get into a murci or spyker

a ferrari is pretty good, but they don't make ferrari's for men , so that's out of the question (just kidding)

I personally prefer the Gallardo over the Murci. The latter is too freaking huge.

Reliable? Comfortable? PRICED WELL? This is why it isn't an exotic super car at all, just a guido Audi!

Spyder is a nice looking car though.

best supercar on the market? are you kidding? theres a lot of cars i would take over a G any day. they are underperformers given their engine and HP rating. i like the gallardo but it is by far not the best, and the murci to me is a heavy pig and is fugly. the G is pretty reliable but i would NEVER buy a brand new one. they depreciate way too fast. you can pick up a used 04-05 for like 135K right now when they were 200K new. i had a neighbor who had one and traded it in for a 997 GT3 and likes the GT3 is the better car.

I have to agree. The G is far from the best exotic you can buy on the market. Its direct competitor, the F430 is a far better car all around.

As far as a V8 G, I think it could be a good move if sales are slumping. Just like someone else mentioned, no one liked the Cayenne, Boxster/Caymen when they were introduced but they have made other porsche products better and will allow new models into the future.

Agreed, F40 or CGT for me too.. And half the reason why i kick myself in the *** for not getting a Gallardo is because of how damn reliable and useable they are, while still having outstanding performance, looks, sound and so on!

I still want a 997 GT3 though, hell i want one of each haha!
