If any of you have alot of experience with newer Ferraris you probably understand what I mean. Basically, a Lamborghini (especially a Gallardo) feels heavy and needs active planning while your driving, whereas, a Ferrari feels much lighter and more responsive and can be put anywhere on a moments notice (squirt).

Well... I just picked up my Supperleggera today and they really got it right. The small amount of extra power, plus the weight loss, makes this car feel much more nible and extremely responsive (squirt). It almost doesn't seem like a 4-wheel drive - which is amazing.

The only negative so far is the overuse of carbon-fiber in the interior. I prefer carbon-fiber as a highlight, and the Super has too much. It can't save that much weight!

I'll post some pics soon...
congrats, enjoy your new SL! If you really hate the CF interior panels, I could find a new home for them in a heartbeat....

Wow you have some deep pockets

With the kind of collection you have, if you lived on the west coast I would be your new best friend

Hey Bernard,

I don't know if you've been in the Super G, but those panels suck. They reduce the already limited elbow room by about an inch.

A better way to describe the drifting is "taking advantage of the slip angle." You know you can trust the Perellis (once their warm) past where you point them.
