I drove a 911 years ago. The suggestion to me was to use the throttle to point the nose because it had so much oversteer. Fantastic ride.

Yes, but it did not have the giant wing on the back.
My old Yamaha YZF-R6 was way faster to 100 than the lambo. I had to pretty much lay on the tank to keep the front end down.

I used to ride a 600 and the Lambo would destroy a 600 at higher speeds. 600 bikes have sucky top end grunt at speed. Lambo's made in the last 20 years are just getting warmed up where 600 bikes start petering out. If you ran from 100 to whatever with a 600 vs a Lambo all the bike would see would be distant tiny red tail lights. Liter bikes are another story to some extent but 600 type bikes aren't going to keep up with any type of super car. They are not drag cars, and 0-60 times are irrelevant here.

I think the fastest I drove the lambo was 120. My yamaha 600 hit 90 in second gear. Definitely quicker than the lambo. The fastest I ever went on my Yamaha was 145 or so. I know that lambo would go faster. My point is that the Lamborghini was not easy to drive, and definitely not that fast.

They are wicked fast cars for their rated HP, especially the twin turbo S.

It was quick, but not super fantastic quick. Nothing like the new Chargers or Challengers. It belongs to a friend of mine, a Hurican or something like that. I thought the clutch was broken or something, but it is apparently that stiff. The ride was like it had no suspension at all, like a '84 Corvette, or a go cart. The steering was so fast I had trouble keeping it in line. 0-100 was almost as fast as a 600cc motorcycle. I was not impressed. Huge disappointment. We went for a quick ride through the mountains and I came out feeling like I had run a marathon from muscling the controls on this car.

You probably drove a damn kit car.

It was your "life-long dream" to drive one but you didn't bother to remember what year or model it was?

A friend's brother has one. Don't remember the model, but I how much he spent on it

He let me start it and goose the accelerator a couple of times. Pretty impressive compared to what I am used to. His insurance guy basically told him if he found out others were driving it, that would be the end of his insurance. I was so close!!

They call it the Man Pedal for a reason.

Seriously, the 911 is a ton stiffer than the BMW clutches but you just get used to finessing it like anything else.

People just don’t understand Euro high performance cars.

They. Aren’t. For. Drag. Racing. So, stop trying to race me at stop lights, Mr. Brodozer...

Neither my 996 or my C63 are eye-watering off the line. But hammer them halfway through a corner (2nd into 3rd in the 996) and they become eye-watering and you better have a plan.

I was so-so on the C63 when I first got it. Sure it lights up an on ramp but so do Challenger/Charger types. Then, I took it on my favorite road in So.IN. (Part of this: Schweinfiletring ). Crazy in S+. Handling was so much better than jacking around on roundabouts in the city. Made a believer of me and a keeper out of it.

I’m sure the Lambo wouldn’t disappoint given the right venue.
