Damn. That sucks. It's OK though, because if I'm ever rich or lucky enough to own a Lamborghini, it won't be my only exotic. Hello Ford GT. Manual only.

It's an inevitability. These manufacturers can not continue to boast new acceleration numbers with the human element as the limiting factor. The faster the computer gets the faster the car gets. It does suck from a connection standpoint. It feels almost inorganic without the left foot involved. Now anyone can drive these cars. It used to be something to "out drive" someone who couldn't handle their car. It's one of the reasons I gravitated to the V12 Vantage. I really feel likes it's the last of a dying breed. Keep in mind, the people pulling the strings at Lambo are in control of Porsche also, so it's a little scary for the future of P cars also.

It's OK. I'd still rather have an 05-06 GT over a lot of the new exotics coming out or anything near it's price range! I've seen many exotics in person, but only 1 tungsten GT, and the GT is just something else to me. It was my dream car the second I saw it's amazing ass.
