Which would you choose?

If you were given the option between driving A Ferrari 360 or Lamborghini Gallardo for a half hour, which would you choose? Why?

Easy, the 360. If only because it's the proper supercar layout (mid engine, rear wheels driven)

Now if the Gallardo was a Balboni edition (or a manual LP550-2) on the other hand...

not really a fan of the 360, if you had said 430, then that would be chosen hands down.

but 360 vs gallardo, ill take the gallardo

Gallardo. The 360 is less fun to drive than my ISF, and thats coming from experience.

On the track, I think the 360 would be more fun being lighter and RWD. And that glorious Ferrari sound at 8500 RPM.

I had a similar choice. Driving a manual Gallardo was very unpleasant, loud as anything mind, but I'm still glad I chose it over the 360. If it was a 430 though, I'd be more inclined to go with that.

I'd go Gallardo-though I'm not really a big fan of either.

I'd still love to drive a Superleggera though. That V10 sounds awesome. Especially if you add TT to it and make 1200+whp

Any chance I could sub in an F40 for that F360? If so, that one.

If not, I'd still take the Ferrari, never been a huge fan of the Gallardo. The styling didn't seem nearly crazy enough, at least compared to the Aventador.

Depends...for half an hour where? On a track?

If so, are all aids on? If yes then gallardo
if no then 360

If theres a driving instructor with you then gallardo, if not than 360.

I was going to rent a Gallardo once, but the transmission failed the day before my reservation. I went to another agency and they had another Gallardo, but when I saw the DB9 convertible I went with that instead.
