Funny thread.
But, the said driver’s personality aside, allenlambo has a Lamborghini. A Lamborghini! The point is, there are thousands of “fixed up” Civics that can beat it. But who cares?? If I could afford a Lambo, I would take that car over any ubiquitous Mercedes or “fast Civic.” You guys are thinking like Vin Diesel and living your life a 1/4 mile at a time. Trust me, there is more to life than 1/4 mile times…..as well as more to cars than just that.

In any case, this is a straw man argument, as nobody has ever claimed any such thing.
Are you comparing a stock, and after all this is about stock, $185,000 SL65 to a tuned Honda?? Are you aware that the Gallardo's base price is $10,000 LESS? (source: edmunds.com: Gallardo base is $175,000) Don't confuse a Gallardo with the more expensive model...fact is that the S65, SL65, and Gallardo are all in the same neck of the woods price wise, so this analogy is blatantly false.
And again, this is another strawman argument. Nobody said anything about "thinking they are a King"; they simply stated that the SL65 is turning better numbers, and cited data to prove it, a far cry from what you're claiming.
As we can see.

Well, I would suggest that you address these comments to mr. allen well as to us, because it was he who came in here in response to a straightline race video between an S65 and a Gallardo and picked fights about the performance capabilities of his car in the quarter mile and in a straightline race.
So, again, who cares who is faster?
"Fast Civic"?? OK, this is more of a stretch than Rosie O'Donnell in a wet suit.

It just seems as though when the 65’s came out, anybody who had one seemed to like to challenge Lamborghinis, Ferraris etc. Just like when a kid puts nitrous and a turbo on his civic…all of a sudden, he talks smack about Lamborghinis, Ferraris, P-cars etc. But in the end……(read down)
All of these cars deserve respect and no car is better than another. But drivers (like allenlambo) discredit cars……then more people jump on the band wagon throwing out mis-information on who is faster and, well, thus the reason I wrote that post.
ps. that was funny what you said about Rosie.

My elusive point was directed at allenlambo as well…..which was, who cares? I believe in facts written by reputable sources. If Road & Track says it is, then I believe that is a great foundation for which car is faster. As for WHO is faster….well, there are too many variables to even argue about. In the end, someone will win and the other will say that those variables weren’t in his favor for that day.
So, again, who cares who is faster?

does that mean that they can think they are better than every Ferrari, Prosche or Lambo out there?
My apologies. I was being a little boorish with that statement….

Thanks! Took me a minute or two to think that one up...I was either inspired or disgusted, I forget which!

That ownage thread link was mf funny...Jezus it made me laugh out loud....Ive seen AllanLambo on so many boards it aint funny and its always the same shyte that Lambos are better than everything else and the only reason they lose to any car is because of driver...If he was driving blah blah blah....Didnt think Id see him on here....Nice to see him owned...
