But seriously, when you accelerate hard in a Murcielago, you sink into the seat like it's giving you a big hug. If it had wings, I'm sure you'd be airborne in less than 10 seconds. Also, make sure your windows are rolled all the way up as the pressure differential makes your head feel like it's going to implode.
The Murcielago is indeed a sweet ride, but as a lanky git I found the driving position cramped.
It tail-slides with a control that adds 30mph to hair-pin bends and adds an unsafe degree of confidence to the driver. Flat-line acceleration? Not the best I've driven, but more than I'd need.
My observations are:
a) The Boxter is a wannabe's car. Crapo handling for the price, shaky performance and accepted as a 20-something junior Realtor's car.
If I could justify the cost of owning a Murcielago, I would.
I can't.
I wish I could
