Douche bag driver, I laughed when he almost put it in that guard rail. And the airborne shot looks like major photochop, slow it down, shadows dont look right, but imo. Vette was all over that lambo on almost all of it.

Nice car but a 100K is a little steep for my blood.

Bad *** video. Bad *** cars. But the cars accelerate so quickly, it doesn't even seem like either one of them are even trying to get away from one another. If that makes sense.

Speed is about the same for both cars. low 11 in the 1/4 & 0-60 in the 3.2 to 3.5 range with topspeeds pushing 205 mph or better, the big damn difference is price 450 large for the Lambo & 110 for the vette.

Not just purchase price. I mean the vette is just a blown LS; parts will be cheap(ish) and plentiful (maybe not for those brakes and suspension, but drivetrain should be reasonable). I can't image trying to do any maintenance or repairs on the lambo; if yall ever watch any of Jay Leno's videos (which are awesome) he talks about how his exotic cars go through clutches about every 5000 miles, at around $5000 a pop.

It is a great site - he does about a 10-15 minute segment on each of his cars, plus test drives other new cars like the GTR, Audi R8, etc... Once you start watching the videos you'll be on the site all day.

The craziest has to be the "ecojet" which has a helicopter gas turbine engine. He also has a twin-turbo LS powered Oldsmobile Toronado (converted to RWD). The steam cars are also pretty funny because each time he takes them out he just about blows up his garage trying to get them started.

Rich boys don't give a rats *** about cost" but it's nice to beat em every now and thing with a LS powered car, love making cocky M-5 BMW, and AMG BENZ freeze on the highway, and pull away from them

Ahh, here we have the "Interweb KNOW-IT-ALL". Every pic. is a fake and he knows top level government secrets, but refuses to share.
