I think a Ferrari guy knows he is a Ferrari guy and gets the Ferrari. But a person that looks over towards the Lambo usually wants the Lambo, but he is not quite sure if he can take the step towards the crazier car.
In terms of handling I would say unless you are about to record a "get away Stockhom movie" you will never drive these car close enough to its limit on the streets to feel the real difference. I would say that most people who talks about handling on street cars talks more about what they have read then what they have experienced. I have driven almost everything on track, there its a big difference, but on the street you should just go for what you like, not what corners better.
I drove the Nissan GT-R for 18 000 km over the past 3 months, but my last trip was in a Renault Laguna, I was actually driving way faster with that and could hear the radio at the same time, so street and track performance are in my world two very different things...

Last week end I drove 869 km to spain for a ski race. Skied for 1 min 47 sec and then drove 869 km back the same day... (through a rainstorm on the way back)
I was pretty tired the next day...

Need Advice: Candice Swanepoel or Alessandra Ambrosio?
Dude, buying a car like this can't be made a logical process. When I went to look at my Ducati, I was trying to find all the reasons to justify buying it. But as soon as he started it, just listening to it sit there idling, I knew I had to have it.
The one that moves you more, that's the one you buy.
