![]() | BMW does not offer any inspiration in this field of motoring, therefore I will go with the Merc guys. The passion evoked in me by the SLR is overwhelming! It's a legend and a future classic, that timeless design ah....What a stunning beauty! ![]() |

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | The SV is the very essence of Italian supercar passion and performance. Check out Driver's Republic and tell me that this natually aspirated V12 isn't one of the most epic sounding engines ever. Once again, the SLR 722 hardly got a mention from the leading performance car publications. The SV on the other hand has already earned instant admiration and full marks. ALI, please refrain from saying something's ignorant when all the person has done was comment on their own preference. And, judging from the opinion of people whose job it is to review supercars - it's not ignorant at all.

![]() Since when was a Lamborghini cocky... ? Lambo is only for the lovers,... they who love sound (noise) the people who love brutality the people who loves danger for those who love extremeness for those people that really loves insane styling! "The SuperVeloce is the very essence of Italian supercar passion and performance" - martinbo Mercedes on the other hand is for that rich peoples who loves to show wealth... but my god Mercedes did a utterly fantastic superb work with the SLR, the SLR is a masterpiece on the road and it looks just WOW! I can't belive how great that hypercar really is... It goes as fast as a Lambo and it rolls as smoothley as a Rolls... BUT it has no soul... The Lamborghini was built to bring out the little boy inside you... and shake him half to death. - JC The Mercedes was built to show to mercedes costumers that mercedes can also be superfast and hyperish. My conclution is that Lamborghini is not about the best car it is about the best adventure / experience Mercedes is about beeing best and please their fans/costumers and I know what I want in a car I want the car to make ME feel more than alive !! ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Also Mr. ALI, I wouldn't feel cocky in a Lambo I would feel scared! BTW do you know any car in this world that has a rev'ometer that says Girls? ^^ (only with z) and btw I love your signature !! =D ![]()

I for one would also chose the Lambo for all the reasons you stated ![]() Oh and a quote from Richard Hammond "It's just looks extreme from EVERY angle" Hes just soo true! Quote:
