Currently in California, the Audi costs $80k and the Lamborghini costs $100k as used cars. This makes the R8 a relative bargain. However, I do prefer the Lamborghini's styling. For me it would be a hard choice between these two supercars. Ultimately, I think that I would go for the Gallardo despite the higher price.

I hate that Vorn Saurma always drive slow non german cars, yeah, because the Gallardo LP560-4 is as fast as the 100 kg heavier and 60 hp less Gallardo. A bet that the LP560 can lap in the low 7:30's but that is never going to happen unless Lamborghini or Evo are the ones doing the lap.
Anonymous 17y ago
7:57 should be deleted,cause 7:52 has already existed in our lap time for a long time.
Georg 17y ago
because it has one laptimes with huge different ...
Northloop 7:44>7:57
the other are pretty close with at the end 3:3 but with one track with large different that way it recived more points for track performance..
the straightline different isn´t big enough for the LP560-4 to close the lost track compare..
