Lamborghini Murcielago = Monster

^^^ that was an awesome top gear episode! The guy spun the green lambo and clarkson held up the big L! really good!

thing is, the lambo blows the doors off the evo in terms of looks. True, the evo is a lot, lot, LOT cheaper, but if money was no object I would take the lambo anyday.

funny how an Evo 8 kept up with it on a track.

If you're referring to Top Gear show, it wasn't just a normal EVO8, it was an 2005 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VIII MR FQ400, a $85000 version.

These is also a Silver one thats often parked near alma/12th, I guess people in the UBC area like these cars (Martha Piper probably has a few in her garage or on order). I think Vancouver probably has the highest nice car per capita.

I was downtown toronto yesterday (for the car show!) and I already saw a man rolling in the brand new Mercedes CLS500...the dealer at the show said they don't receive shipment for another couple days, so that guy must be mad loaded to have the car already!

I'm from Vancouver too, and I gotta agree Vancouver has some pimpin cars. Porsche Carerra GT (1 at the show as well!)...something like 8 total in Canada...a silver one lives by my buddy's place in Vancouver!

Still very nice

yeah that was a nice showdown with the murcielago and the evo8 blah blah blah.
I bet if it was a gallardo, the evo would have passed him ^^.

I wonder if its the same story with the 575 Maranello vs evo8 blah blah blah.
I know that the 360 Modena can't beat a Evo8 on the track from those crazy Japanese racing flix.

I saw this (along with the other Lamborghinis) at the Autoshow. They're more like sculptures than cars with the ability to look like they're moving really fast even when standing still.

The poor Lambo sales rep kept freaking out when anyone tried to stand on the platform trying to take a picture of them.

[urameatball]

haha, evo8 gets 4mpg on track?

[LtFransky]

That was an interesting video. Although the race was a little deceptive. He was really goosing the power to run up on the Lambo in the corners so it looked a lot faster than it was. And the driver-induced spin was funny.

There are also only 100 of them available in Britain only.

TopGear is a funny show. They come up with the stupidest things for cars to do.

Speaking of cool cars, here is a heart-breaker of a site.
