GQ IMAGE Report post Posted December 11, 2015 Just want to throw this out there. I have had 5 Ferrari's so far, my current model is my 458 Spider. I bought my 1st Lambo 2 months ago for a second exotic car. Gallardo LP540-4 and when I drove it, it felt like a bar fight. Where all my Ferrari's feel very refined. So I thought because maybe the Lambo was older and I was comparing it too much to the 458. So I just upgraded the Lambo to a 2013 LP560-4, and still the same thing a BAR FIGHT. Is it me, or the feeling between the two that much different? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluedemon Report post Posted December 11, 2015 Is it me, or the feeling between the two that much different? Yes, very true. The 458 feels very smooth and refined compared to the Aventador (haven't driven the LP560-4). Both on the street and on the track.

See you soon. if he thinks the 560 is a "bar fight" then he will definitely think the 570 is all out war as soon as he sits in those seats!

Allan-Herbie Report post Posted December 11, 2015 458 is newer tech than.the Gallardo. The Lambo is much more exciting to drive. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smash Boy Report post Posted December 12, 2015 Driving a Lambo should be an event or its not a Lambo. I think this is the best definition of a Lamborghini. The overall look, the scissor doors, the big V12.....it's supposed to be a big deal just driving one. Ferrari , Porsche do have models like this as well but it doesn't seem to be anywhere as much a big emphasis as it does for Lambo. The Gallardo and Huracan are not quite at that level, but have a lot of presence themselves. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plastique999 Report post Posted December 12, 2015 I drive a Lotus Elise as my daily.. My M and G are like a Bentley to me! Likewise, the Lotus was a DD for me for many years....nothing compares to it. I will say that yes my Murcie does feel like a beast, properly referred to as a Bull. My 16M, although raw, is very nimble and quick with much lighter steering. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smash Boy Report post Posted December 12, 2015 Owned both as well. Would rather a manual Gallardo. But would you say the same about an e-gear Gallardo? All sorts of collectible cars in the future just based on the manual availability: 670 Murci 550/Balboni Gallardo Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very cool to see people DD Elise/Exiges...... A funny thing about the reputation of these cars is you'll almost never hear anybody praise them except "for track use only", as if these are barely DOT legal race cars with seat belts. And now we have two guys who DD'd it out of choice and enjoyed it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bld Report post Posted December 13, 2015 My Ferrari Scuderia is precise, like a scalpel, and my Aventador LP700 was a brute. Both are exciting to drive, just in very different ways. My new Aventador SV, on the other hand, retains most of the brutality of the LP700, but adds in much of the most important precision of my Scud. As a result, the SV is leagues more exciting to drive than my LP700 was. Still, to my taste, not quite as much of a "driver's car" as my Scud, but equally as exciting in its own ways.

Keep it up guys! I used to pass a guy every morning that was DDing his Elise to work and it always made me wish I was in my S2K.
