It should be, and that’s a good reason the main reason I’d take it is for the drama

I would argue that anything with a V10 is going to be less reliable than any V8 (or even a V12), unless it is a Viper/Magnum or Triton V10. 90-degree V10s are far more reliable than 72-degree ones, since they are usually derived from V8s.

Actually a flat plane crank V8 is like a four cylinder as far as vibrations. Is the V10 a flat plane crank or balanced? If balanced it should be more reliable methinks. Also I looked up the Gallardo, it seems to have better overall reliability than the Ferrari based on the forums.
