That lambo at best will trap 116mph and your car most likely 122+mph, newer LP560 would be hard to beat.

PORSCHE PANAMERA TURBO LAMBORGHINI GALLARDO SL600 E55 BRABUS*SOLD*
I was thinking about doing stage 1 UG racing (700 hp) on my Gallardo but for 35k
I didn't think it was worth it. Heck, i did a ECU AND TCU upgrade to my wife's
SL600 for $1200 and it makes about 600 hp

i was looking at this thread on here like a year ago of the general demographic of W211 amg owners and most are in their 20's. these cars have really taken a hit in value, but they are definitely timeless pieces and are unbeatable for the money. yea he's 21, is on his 4th gallardo, has a murcielago, 2 GTR's, an R8, and range rover and other toys too.

pretty sure he was stock and he was definitely trying as i could hear his engine going wot.... i pulled pretty hard on him and he gave up pretty easy, although i was at 110- 120ish mph after the short burst and shut it down and he dropped back and didnt want to play anymore i guess he just prefers cutting people off and he considers that his "kill"

no hamsters or gerbels were hurt in the filming of this film....

LOVE IT dude!
