Try as I may, Ford just didn't pick me - so I was forced to get this instead...she's fast, furious, wild and just a blast to drive!

She's already much quicker than my 2005 1050 HP FGT...amazing what 12 years of technology and automatic transmissions will do to cars. :biggrin

Just ordered a Whipple 2.9 blower and wheels for her as well - that should get me into the near 2 second flat 0-60's.

I know big displacement V8/ V10/ V12's are becoming extinct, but there is something magical about the roar of the 5.2 Liter V10 snarling beast in this thing!

Congrats! You know life is hard when you have to settle for a new Lamborghini:thumbsup Soon as your able get it to a track and see how it does. You were very smart in getting the comfort seats. I had an SV with race seats and got rid of it as fast as I could. It was torture.

Great choice. The Performante may be the best looking car you can actually walk into a dealer and buy.

Wowzer! Super cool and great choice. That thing will draw more attention that walking into church in your birthday suit.

I just bought a Audi R8 V10 Plus, and the NA V-10s in these cars are pretty amazing. Hope you enjoy it in good health and watch out for the cell phone picture takers while you drive...

Yes, they certainly will with the exhaust in that thing, and the pipes up that high!

Awsum, gorgeous Aventador!
