My point exactly. No race history. Volkswagen bought them in 1998. If anything, Volkswagen is importing lambo's faux stuff into other performance cars, not the other way around.

Well, lambos are great if you like dying in a ball of fire.
|
^^^ that's hilarious.

you can only find a FXX on a track becaseu that was the deal when you buy them, they arent street legal to my understanding.

yep, you got it :)
|
In 1999 I thought about buying a countach for a few hours.
I guess that mostly came from being a kid and thinking it was the coolest car ever. Not the reality though. Interior is dreadful. |
Epic WinNNNN!!N!NN!N!N!Nnn I love mucielargo

it's funny because it's true.
did you see the photos of the race car driver and his model girlfriend? They were toasty critters. |

Lol at the hatin in this thread... I mean c'mon guys I love the RX-8 just as much as anybody else, but a Lambo - any lambo - is going to smoke the majority of vehicles in this world, and look really really good doing it. Is there any car more beautiful inside and out than the Reventon?
Lamborghini has no racing pedigree? Well gee they sure are quick... http://youtube.com/watch?v=ckWxoLxiV6I&feature=related http://youtube.com/watch?v=1PvyjKll9zc&feature=related |
Car looks great, If they dont have any racing history, big deal, it's still a sweet looking, exotic car.
|
Lots of Exotic Cars dont have racing crap for dilldos about back grounds, psst big deal, people still buy them.
|
if i were to buy another car of that range it would be an old, real ferrari like the 330 p3 (or p4) or a maserati mc12, i know there were only 12 made but come on, racing pedigree that you can't find on a lambo, to quote mysql... i really think that counts in a way. Also, lamborghini makes 4x4 cars and that's not sporty. That's why i'd go for the mc12 and not the reventon for example.
|
How is AWD not sporty? What do you feel about Porsche then? And if "racing pedigree" was all that, we'd all be driving Hondas.
I mean seriously, look at this car and tell me that it's not a work of art. It's a stealth fighter on wheels! http://tugagames.com/victor/wp-conte...reventon-1.jpg |
Reventon ftw
|
I can see why some of you don't get it.
A lambo with a body kit that isn't faster than the other lambos, doesn't warrant amazing. But it does have daylight running lights! |

Actually that specific lambo is faster than just about anything mazda, ferarri, or ford has out including the GT. It's hardly just a body kit, and its significantly faster than any other lambo ever built.
So by my reckoning, that's a 1.2 million dollar body kit. And you get 17 hp more than the standard LP640. Remind me never to have you recommend anything to me :P |
woops. looks like it's only 10 hp more. I need to bring this up next time someone complains about NA mods being expensive for the RX-8.
|
It seems to me that you're the one not getting it. Fine, forget the Reventon and let's compare the "standard" LP640.... heck take the base Murci; they're all amazing cars by any standard, the epitome of what a supercar should embody.
Now in my personal opinion I would prefer an Aston Martin Vantage or Audi R8, but I can definitely still appreciate Lambo. |

Now in my personal opinion I would prefer an Aston Martin Vantage or Audi R8, but I can definitely still appreciate Lambo. Ferrari is part of FIAT, right but a part from some minor interior details the whole technical section is engineered by Ferrari. And then, relating to the 4wd stuff i'm sure it can be amazing but the feeling you get from driving a serious rwd is totally different and way more satisfactory. I own an old '87 gtb turbo, 255whp on a 2l turbo engine, about 300 built. I know it hasn't got much power but driving a mid engine-rwd with that heritage is something unique, a feeling you don't get close while driving a 4wd car, obviously in my opinion. Then, to the reventon again: you posted a pic and that's fine but what about the mc12? |

According to various reviewers, the AWD system in the Murci is pretty unsophisticated, and if it were simply RWD, it'd be lighter and handle more predictably and be an all-around better car.

Don't know what's so bad about Audi interiors. And ask all the other cars chasing the Audis tail lights at le Mans about the mechanicals.

I just find it funny on one hand these guys are all hardcore about lack of racing history and pureness of RWD vs AWD, then they cry about interiors. :) |

I think Id rather trust the team of word class engineers than some random dude on an internet forum whether AWD is better than RWD for that car. |
