When a Aventador comes to your house, you lose sleep for days....

I dont have the cool US$1 mill for it locally but god was cool this weekend.

In a word, it sucks so bad

its up there with a CGTs in looks, again i think its about the best looking car out there, period. especially in bright white. the side profile and the rear is just awesome. i think i have pretty cars but after seeing this sh!t many times, it still makes me speechless.

compared the driving and handling with any modern ferrari or gt porsches is useless, the thing suck so bad!! i have never driven a car that suck this much.

the steering which im always in corsa is fxcking heavy, the throttle is not minute accurate like what i have, every push creates a different output than last time, not progressive at all. When u go to redline, the steering suddenly twitches as if to say u are losing grip and it grips back again with 4wd. the ride is bouncy and extremely uncomfortable compared to fcars. the transmission is the worst in da world, makes my worst shifting e60 M5 feel like a double clutch. every shift is different, sometimes brutal, sometimes the whole car leap forward, sometimes it lags, and other times it bogs, all in corsa mode??!! Consistency, it is NOT.

Its a complete JOKE after any ferrari, BUT I LOVE THIS SH@T!!!!!

Because it is so inconsistent, and so unpredictable, u are always wired up when driving this sh!t, it makes u get involved in a totally different way then GTs or fcars, u BATTLE with the car! not the road, it makes my arms sore carving my home track, and its no where as fast as any other car when doing so, but it gives u a work out so good, its like playing a losing basketball game with Kobe, ur losing badly, but hey, u playing with Kobe. and Kobe will even teach u how to score with hotel clerks which has nothing to do with playing ball that kind of feeling.

Driving a ferrari is like the early Linsanity scoring 30 points every game, amazingly and shockingly good and consistent.

This big bull performs so bad in every possible way, but because it looks so good and with such great numbers on paper, u constantly WANT to make it perform better! So u drive and drive and drive, correcting ur technique and cope with the queer inconsistencies of the car, trying to make it go faster and smoother all the way to ur destination. and once i got there......, WOW! what a car! what a piece of sh!T, but how much i love it!! i wanna continue to do battle with it for as long as i can!

While a ferrari gives u schumacher performance and accuracy every time, its actually, dare i say it, boring , compared to the pos aventador.

like linsanity, once the hype dies down and ur used to the perfection of the 458, u long for the next big and exciting thing.

For the aventador, i give it a big two thumbs up because it is so bad. may mean bad ass, but no, it is really bad, they could of just made it like a 458 which is perfect, but some how im glad they didn't. they created something that i want to keep driving until some one pry the keys away from my hands.

u cant say that about my 458.

Cool pics, again, anyway.

So, the aventador is snappy and unpredictable, but in a good way. I'm not sure I like that

not in a dangerous way, just unlike a constant progressive predrictable of power, steering, and tranny delivery than a modern ferrari.

and forgot to mention the carbon monocoque really feels much more solid than any fcar, its bank vault like. but then it needs to be, because the ride is really harsh and bouncy in whatever mode.
