02 s2k vs Orange Lambo Gallardo
I was driving back from my parents friends house today and as I was turning onto the highway a bright orange Lamborghini Gallardo pulled onto the highway as well. 
The first run was more like me trying to catch up as he floored it past me while we were merging, I wasn't even gaining any ground on him. 
Sooooooooooooooooooooo fast. I was finally able to get up next to him and gave him the thumbs up and he smiled. We continued on the highway till we got to some open road and we lined up. I floored it first at about 75 in 3rd; he wheeled me as if it was nothing, then spit me out and pulled all the way to 110. 
As I drove by he gave me the thumbs up as well did I. 
Good times good times. Now I need to buy me one of those!

OK... relative your S, that thing flies, yes. But relative to about 75% of all other exotic cars... well lets just say its a bit overpriced... your best bet is an F360 or F430 which should both be quicker.
Never-the-less nice encounter... those is rare!

Lambo Gallardo
More HP than the 430 (slighty slower for the same price) and blows away the 360. You did know this is the baby Lambo right, the cheapest one?

The gallardo is both cheaper and faster than the F360. Please list the 75 percent of "all other exotic cars" that make it "overpriced."

F430 ok its like 10k more but still a good bit faster
Mercedes SL600 ~130k; WHICH IS CHEAPER THAN 165K, faster
BMW M6 ~100k; WHICH IS CHEAPER THAN 165K, faster
And of course, the new vette (z06) is cheaper and faster than all of them.
Yes i am biased, i hate lambo's but imho they are overpriced when you compare to these cars here... and that is mybad on the F360 i was mistaken.
check this vid w/ the F430 and Gallardo and a GT3... the F430 pulls ALOT harder than the Gallardo and is virtually toying with him around the track letting him catch up and then passing him coming off the last turn.

The Gallardo MSRP's for 173 grand -- which makes all of your other numbers wrong too.
