I have owned 3 996TT's and the Gallardo runs circles around them in every aspect (except 1st gear acceleration). As for the understeer you mention, you drove a car that was messed up or didn't get to learn how to drive it properly. The Gallardo is a neutral as they come and the handling of that car is head and shoulders above all others I have owned including Z06 Vettes, Vipers (old and new) NSX and more.
