Yeah I'd definitly have the lambo too. Before that it would've been the 'mp34 dash whatever' lol but after seeing the aventador I want one of those instead. Wasn't too immpressed with the noble though tbh...

I don't usually correct spelling but its 're benton'....cos as clarkson said on that episode, you'd get a lot of 'badge' with that car.
And you're right, lambos always seem to do one better each time! 8-)

Turbos are ruining big cars imo!
Turbos should be for rallying or for the 'average' driver that wants a lot of power with a small petrol/diesel engine.............not for 'super' cars imo!! They should have massive NA W12s and stuff like that, not turbos!

They should have massive NA W12s and stuff like that, not turbos! What's wrong with a v12 + 2 massive turbos? Search underground racing on YouTube, (they are a tuning company who specialise in bolting turbos to supercars and making 1000+ bhp) I would posta vid but on my phone and cba with the faff!
Edit - Tom, I don't think I would worry about a little bit of lag in return for over 1000 hp

I dunno, maybe its just the idea of turbo's on massive engines I don't like............but thats they way it'll go anyway, and engines will get smaller with turbos and superchargers so you cut out the lag...........

Yeah, who would want more power, more noise, more offensiveness and general awesomeness from a 'super' car?! You worry me sometimes Tom...

But turbo noise isn't nice! And generally just sounds annoying.....and makes you look like a cock.(unless thats just me!).......
And why stick a heavy turbo on to make more power....you've got to overcome the turbo's weight as well then.....plus the weight and the strain on the engine from a supercharger if you stick one of those on too to hide the lag..........

Haha thought it might be!
But also when I see people revving diesels high enough to get the turbo to cut in that looks daft and I just think 'what a dick' lol..................but I know thats exactly what I do!

~600 hp without, over 1000 hp with........ I think we have overcome the extra weight,
And as Scott says, its just you!
