I like the Diablo better than Ferrari's "normal cars" (360, 575, 612 - excluding the F cars, 288 GTO). It is just so aggressive and looks so sick. The Murcielago is too refined for a Lambo, I want ppl to notice a $300k car. Of course they will w/a Murcielago, but a Diablo so more unique. Yes, they will notice a Ferrari too, but personally Lambos just stick out more because of their radical styling.

I can see the argument of the Ferrari as more refined, the Lambo is more aggressive but it is not ghetto fabulous as some ppl make it sound like. Rap stars and athletes get Ferrari's too! Anyways, both companies are sick, and most of us will never be able to own either one anyways..but man its fun to dream!
Mclaren F1 IS THE GREATEST CAR EVER MADE!

Ferrari, by far, but honestly, I am not crazy about either one. Ferrari at least builds race cars, and are made to be driven. Lambo's to me are rolling art, sure they are fast, but they really aren't made to be driven hard. I think the average Evo driver would break something on a Lambo within 1000 miles. The clutch job on both are absolutely ridiculous $8k +, the paint job costs $15K+, I can only imagine what it would cost if you accidently curbed it while sliding that back end around. I would rather take that same $$ that it takes to drive a Italian Super Car, and put it in my Evo. Although that Ferrari FXX would be a nice toy and racing for Ferrari for a season on there dollar sounds cool too.

I toured the Ferrari factory in Modena about 10 years ago, everything was done by hand. The only automated machine they had was the brand new cam grinder lolz. I doubt it is still that way but I was very impressed. The guy in charge of the carbon fiber was an American, and we chatted a bit. He used to make helicopter rotors for the military, which is where his CF knowledge came from. I am not in love with the looks of the newer Ferraris, but the 288 GTO is my favorite car ever, followed by the old pontoon fendered 500 Testa Rosa (the 4 cylinder hill climb version of the 250) and that is followed by the F40 lolz. So I would probably go with an old Ferrari.

Lamborghinis have always been a little over the top aesthetically IMO, and the modern ones are pretty tame dynamically what with the 4wd and all.

Though if the 3 Ferraris I listed above were unavailable, I would want a full rally prepped Lancia Stratos.

Ferrari. I like the styling better and they have more of that racing pedigree. Lambos strike me as more of a "look at me!" kind of car.

FFS, did you really need to bump a thread that had been dead for 4+ years to post this?

I can't believe I wasted my time voting on a four year old thread. I could have been finding out if dridge finally hooked up with that girl from his office.
