The 458 should pretty well mince the Gallardo. It more powerful and about 200 pounds lighter, its faster to sixty and because its a Ferrari it should handle a bit better. I would still love to see it though, they are such good looking cars.
@megasword33 Remember: "power" is not a synonym of "sport car". The Ferrari 599 is a Gran Turismo Car. An other example: the Lotus Exige with only 260 bhp is a sports car, but the Bentley Continental with 560 bhp isn't a sports car.
In most cases a GT car is a sports car no matter what wikipedia tells you. gran turismo and macchina sportiva (sports car) are used interchangeably in italy
indahead, you trully are 100% idiot...you must have been analraped as a kid ...you know shit about cars !!!! stop posting !!! lambo was never bust, audi bot a small part of the company...do some reasearch...the chieff tester is still balbonni...italian...lambos are still made in Italy....audi and lambo are partners in the Lamborghini company...think before you open your mouth...except when you suck!!! ;)
ee wath you talk about lamborghini is still italian buddy audi only owens 35 %of the company lambo is italian!!!!!!!!! mercedes owens crysler before and now is owened by fiat i after saiyd anymore
Lamborghini was broke and noone wanted to buy it,so Audi did and now they have record sales.Good that the germans took it cause you see what happens when these italian jerks are in charge.Italians only put the car together thats all.Its engine is german,its interior,its gearbox etc....where exactly is the italian part,you MORON! Noone even takes you seriously...
o ye mister cowboy if german is so good why the italian dominate formula one with ferrari ?????? you don't know schit just go eat your hamburgher and schut up !!!!!!
lol, that was because of Michael schumacher, also a german u moron :)
beside of that: wether lambo is part of audi/vw and ferrari is a fiat, i like both brands. and i come from the homecity of porsche and mercedes, which a also like.
Well, it just isn't. English Autocar made a straight lane accelerating test and there were both the LP640 and the 599 GTB Fiorano. The Fiorano was faster than the LP640 in acceleration, it only had 2 mph lower top speed. In fact the Fiorano was only beaten by the mighty Bugatti Veyron.
the 599 seems better to me it wont break your bak its got power(enzo engine)it has a decent boot it looks sexy the only down side it that the lambo handles better but the ferrari win for me
Well.. Its really not that easy to get an Enzo and race it... Comeon.. there wear only 400 produces.. sorry, 399 produced... But please feel free to get an Enzo... And come to Sweden and race it
i dont like the Enzo design too massive, Porsche i dont like even Carrera GT, and 612 it s also sexy car but with 599 appears the 612 seems to be an older car but still great
lamborghini's are more for luxury than speed, yea lamborghini's fast but Ferrari has the perfect combonation of speed and luxury, its the best of both worlds
Cant agree any less with you.. Lamborghini is a car with less technology and more passion... The Ferrari is a car that cannot be driven without its got damn computers... Its like comparing a WW2 fighter plane to an F22 fighter jet.. The WW2 fighter plane cannot be in the air without its engine and a good pilot... The F22 fighter jet cannot be in the air without its computers...
So basically... If you buy a Ferrari.. You buy a racing car.. Buy a Lamborghini.. And you go with the looks..
For me i think think the Ferrari has better looks then a Lamborghini... and computers are the best part of the car, they (usually) make the car better in preformance. but you and me both have our own opinions.
Of course.. Of course... But if you think.. Cars with alot of computer steering are worse cars... I mean... Think how good a Lambo would be with monster computers... And Ferrari... Its really hard to steer a Ferrari without tracktion control....
I mostly agree with you. Lamborghini LP640 definately looks better than 599GTB, but it isn't much slower as well. For example it smashed Ferrari by almost 2 seconds going round the Top Gear track. Lamborghini is also equiped with various computer systems.
Of course the Lambo has computers.. my moms Kia has also computers... But the only main 2 computer systems in the Lambo is the tracktion control and the computer which decides to wich wheel the power should go to... A.k.a. the diff computer... And well.. The 599 GTB... got damn its soo hard to drive it when you turn the tracktion control off...
Excellent job with your race procedure. Although I find a typical drag race more entertaining (I'm American), this is more accurate of the car's potential. Keep them coming!
The 599 is FAST! Road and Track just compared it to the new Corvette ZR1 in its latest issue and it was very close in acceleration.
Ok.. You wear right about the weight.. But aerodynamics.. I would not be so sure.. Because Just because a car has a flat front... Does not mean its much better in aerodynamics.. But you could be right...
The LP640 has a thin front which means it has a lower drag coefficient than the 599 which has a relatively thick front. Think of the McLaren F1 vs. the Bugatti Veyron:) THe F1 has a very thin nose so it knifes through the air- that's one reason why it needs only 627hp to get to 240 while the Veyron needs 1001 to get 10mph more. According to Gordon Murray, the F1 would only need about 740 hp to get to 253mphm and if it had 1001hp, it could get to 281 assuming the same drivetrain efficiency...
Well yes. Thats quite right.. But you also have to look on details... Have a guess.. Which car has better aerodynamics.. A Ford GT which is a big fat muscel car or the Pagani Zonda.. a small bee that is fast and rappid as hell?
I'm think the Ford GT has a better CDA... I remember Jeremy Clarkson talking abou how the Zonda "Had the aerodynamic properties of Elton John in those big spectacles" he then commented on how the Ford GT had a slightly higher top speed because of this...
If you refer to figured dry weight (Lp640 have 3670 lbs or 1665 kg) the 599 gtb weight 1580 kg (3483 lbs). It's obvious, LP640 has a tubular steel chassis (steel doors and roof also) plus all wheel drive mechanic. Different magazines tested both cars and measured weight in equal conditions.
Dry weight is a car without any liquid (engine and breaking system oil, engine cooling water, fuel etc etc). Curb or Kerb weight refers to a car 'ready to go' and so with all liquid and some fuel. In my opinion Left lane confuses manufacturer data about dry weight. Test Magazines weight cars in same conditions and with test equipment assembled on the car. You get some difference also because the optionals. Carboceramics brake rotors weight about 12-15 kilos less than conventional ones.
actually running starts and standing still drag races both serve their point. Drag races show tha ability of a car to put the power to the ground of a start and accelerate obviously but can be affected severely by the reaction time of the driver. Running starts in m opinion really show the true power of the car as many cars that post quick 0-100km/h times can often have very average running accelaration times. But both are entertaining
to tell you all the truth the lambo got no chance on this one cuz its horsepower is only 520 HP @ 8000 RPM and the Ferrari 599 is 620 HP @ 7600 RPMs.

Christoo92 3 years ago
A 599 is about 50-70 kilos lighter than a LP640 (both with carboceramics brake discs)due to its aluminium chassis and body.
Aerodinamics data :
LP 640 Cx=0,35 Sf=2,04 m2 so Sf*Cx= 0,71
599 GTB Cx=0,33 Sf=2,23 m2 so Sf*Cx = 0,73
So due to a thinner front LP640 has a bit lower drag coefficient.

what's the difference between curb weight and dry weight?
Car and driver said that the curb weight of the LP640 is 3850 lb
Left Lane says the curb weight is 3671lbs... why do you think the numbers vary so much?

Dry weight is a car without any liquid (engine and breaking system oil, engine cooling water, fuel etc etc). Curb or Kerb weight refers to a car 'ready to go' and so with all liquid and some fuel. In my opinion Left lane confuses manufacturer data about dry weight. Test Magazines weight cars in same conditions and with test equipment assembled on the car. You get some difference also because the optionals. Carboceramics brake rotors weight about 12-15 kilos less than conventional ones.
