If it were me I would get a Saleen S7 but that's me. And it is something you don't see everyday. Hell something you never see.

This is a hard choice tho. Why not just each of you buy a 100k car instead of sharing a 200k car.

Ferrari will be faster. Much lighter and has a better power band and top end ability. It already handles and breaks better.

guys i went the Skyline route, im doin an R34 GTR and getting it around August is my time target. and im having it built so i know its not a "Ferrari"but it will make one look pretty stupid on the streets if they were to race me. I just enjoy Turbo cars and modification to much and after sitting on it for a while i dropped outta the deal with that Ferrari thing and i believe my other brother and my Dad are goin in on a 911 GT2 now...

Is the R34 going to be right hand or left hand drive?

just get a twin turbo saleen 7, R & T posted some impressive results from the upcomming models.
both cars are absolutly beautiful, handle and perform like a hovercraft on wheels, but if i made my own decision, i would choose the lamboghini, the roar of their engine is nothing like i've ever heard before, yeah Ferarri might be .3 secs faster or have an extra button or something, but think about it, in pure sex appeal and if your young, get the lambo.
its just so fucking sexy
