    lp640 sounds better than a CGT

    Great question. The CGT, to me looks more exotic than the Lambo, and is far more dynamic in setup, more analog, less digital a future must have.

    That's a nice garage. :)

    I still think black is the best looking color on any car. :)

    You think they are really that different? The CGT might be a faster more focused race-car, but the Murci isn't exactly a grocery getter. They are both exteem exotics with big rear engines and 2 seats.

    Lap times don't tell the whole story, especially the Top Gear track. Take a look at the times at Nurburgring, and the Murci can't touch the CGT there.

    In terms of driving dynamics, you can't even compare these 2 cars. The Murci is much more numb, waaaaay heavier, stops slower, etc, etc. They are 2 very different cars.

    Probably a good bet that the parts are MADE in China, Korea, India, Mexico or some other country where Bosch can get away with paying the workers $3.00 a week. :)

    End of last year I bought my 2006 Murci Roadster 6 spd, one only in pearl orange with full orange interior. I had to flip a coin you can say, as I could of got the yellow Carrera GT locally for sale in Chicago at Gold Coast Bentley. I think they are both amazing cars with a good amount of differences that set the two cars apart. I traded my Ferrari 360 Spider for the Murci and have had a lot of fun owning it. The car has a presence that few cars can beat. Yes it does not have the exhaust howl that the Carrera has, but has any one heard the sound the V12 produces at high revs. It's sounds like a musical instrument. I have driven lots of exotic cars, but the sound the engine produces in very unique. It would be nice to have both cars in your stable! Gene.
