You mean how they compared a 7yr old Lambo platform to a brand new one?

The 458 as tested price should be higher. They are in high demand with 30-50K mark up.

Also, why didn't they take a 458 against LP560? More comparable IMO.

I like both and it's obvious that most will prefer the newer 458.

I'd take the Ferrari over the Lamborghini every time.

So all those constructors championships were all in my imagination.

They might not have been competing on the racetrack but ferruccio was definitely competing with enzo after being ignored.

IMO Lamborghini will always have the shadow of Ferrari to contend with.

You have clearly made a choice. Enjoy you car!

Put the keys in a basket and let me choose without looking. I love both cars so much!

I'm actually really impressed with the Lambo's curb weight compared to the Ferrari's. The SL weighs less with a bigger engine and AWD. THAT is impressive.

Lambo all the way! Without driving either it is hard to pick but based on looks and me being a Lambo fan boy makes the decision easy imo. Nice thread!

this is pretty simple to me, the Sl can be ordered in manual, the ferrari is for limp wristed tossers that cant shift. The SL also doesnt need a computer to drive the car for you like the 458
