AutoWeek Compares Evo IX to new Lamborghini

In the current issue of AutoWeek Magazine (not sure of the date, but in Jan. 2011), there is an article about their test drive in the prototype for the next top of the line Lamborghini, which will be replacing the Murcielago later this year. While raving about the great handling of the new Lambo, which must be a $350,000 car, they say that you can toss it around with the same level of confidence as you can a Mitsubishi Lancer Evo IX. High praise indeed.

Go to your local newsstand.

I'm at my office and the magazine is at home. The earliest I'd be able to scan and post the article is next Tuesday (if I get around to it). Sheesh. I thought you'd be happy to hear about it.

Is this magazine available in Canada? The guy writing the article must have watched a lot of Top Gear.

Ehh the GTR is a big fat sloppy pig. I dunno about you fan boys but I'd definitely take a lambo over a crappy gtr or evo any day of the week
