Toys for big boys

Once again, the recent International Auto Show( Think it was Geneva, I forget), has introduced some top notch cars.. Among those are the new Lamborghini Murcielago LP640 and the Ferrari 599GTB Fiorano. And then there is Aston Martin's gorgeous and never-aging Vanquish S. So which one would take the cake for you?

I'd take the Ferrari, although it is probably the worst looking of them all. However, I've got the feeling that it is going to be an engineering brilliance...

Re: Toys for big boys

On the other hand, the Lambo is quite a beast but I think it has a few drawbacks:

1)No rear view, as the rear window does not show anything at all
2) It is rather difficult to get into and out of, mainly due to its trademark doors
3)Although I used to adore the Lambos of the past(Countach and Diablo) for their zest and passion, I think the Murcielago somehow lacks that sense of occasion, feels more like a really fast Audi maybe???
3)The engine is 6.5L, and it is only 20hp more powerful than the 6.0L Ferrari engine. In other words, the engine is not as efficient as that of the Prancing Horse

Last but not least, is the Aston. I simply LOVE the way this car looks(PROBABLY THE BEST LOOKING OF THEM ALL) , although it looks a little dated in comparison to the other two. Moreover, it is a lot shorter on power, and the flappy paddle gearbox makes it a lot more difficult for one to enjoy the car. It is also a whole lot heavier than the Ferrari and the Lambo. I guess we will have to wait till the details on the new DBS emerge to make a more vaild comparison
