    Ricky, how could you? How could you?!?

    How could you go buy the hottest car America makes (well, ok, the Ford GT is hotter) and then trailer it home?!?

    Drive that thing man!

    Congrats on the purchase.

    I was going to drive it home(florida) from the Texas where I bought it but timing was not on my side. The transaction took place over this past weekend and I had a trip to Puerto Rico already in the works.

    No need to worry about driving it, DE's are in the works...

    Like the car, looks well in black.

    It must be a difficult decision to which one to take for a drive. Is it a case of flipping a coin.

    You've already said the vette is the quicker, but how does the driving experience compare and now you have got a chance to drive it properly, is the Gallardo worth the difference in price?

    I wish you all the best.
    Search and you will find the truth.

    Well im not a big fan of vetts, but this one im a big fan off. It is awsome, i kind of se my selv in one.

    The best part is when a preformig racedriver i know Fredrik Ekblom drove this vette against the all new Porsche turbo at Mantorp park track (3.1km long) here in Sweden.

    He did go at it all day driving the bothe cars as fast as he could, the 2 cars was on street tiers. Well he accually said it to me before the test came out in AMS, that the this vette is kick ass vette.

    He outlaped the new turbo whit 2.6 seconds:cool2:
    Thats to diffrent race series, they are not int the same game on track.
    The words he used was, the vette is pissing all over the porker on track

    Well i like all cars, but i got to hand it out to the USA big time whit this one. And the sound, i heard it live at other tracks

    haven't got the chance yet because of the break in period(500 miles) I said it was quicker because of what I've seen and read. I will put it to my own test once I get out of the break in period, and will report my experience.

    Congratulations, this car rocks !

    I was very tempted buy one, when our local dealer had it sitting in the showroom, but as here is really no place to use it's potential, I let it go.
