Talking Diablo 6.0 Vs The Real Deal Slr!!!

Hello, everybody… …..I hope you guys enjoy my story !!! Today is a nice day . My friend told me he would take me home with his Lamborghini Diablo :v VT 6.0 :p . On the way to my house we were on Huntington Drive (near Santa Anita Park) at the light I thought I saw the new SLK(R171) but I was wrong it was the REAL DEAL McLaren SLR . I roll down the window and tell the guy nice ride . He said to us “Let have a little fun ” Then I roll up the window and told my friend we might get kill by the SLR. He told me let find out . When the light turn green and off we go . From 0 to 110mph we beat the SLR by about ½ to ¾ car length . My friend say it very hard betting the SLR because he power shift (with out letting go of the gas when shifting) his car on every gears, which I think he crazy to do that to his car. But it was fun . I still like the SLR but after you read my story do you guys think the SLR worth the money ?

Holy emoticons, batman! Anyway... I'd take a Diablo VT over an SLR any day. I love the look, and Lamborghini's aren't as common as everything else around here. Also, a real sports car should be a manual like the VT IMO. FYI: The Diablo VT 6 is what? 550hp? The SLR was 617hp I believe.
