Re: 2 Italians & 1 German
I'll go with the Lambo.. The SLR comes second. Don't like the Ferrari at all, don't like its look.

Re: 2 Italians & 1 German
All three are epic cars. Only one manages to make use of the pinnacle of modern automotive technology and be the whole that is more than the sum of its parts.

The incomparably complete and multi-talented 599 GTB.

Re: 2 Italians & 1 German
Nice compilation stats there. What is surprising is that LP640 has a higher redline yet makes lower HP/liter compared to the F599. LP640 is tempting for its epic looks, F599 gets my vote for being 'imho' better car.
