There is a Diablo Twin Turbo in Japan, which dynoed 1187 rwhp, and can do more, but the dyno will only regsiter to 1200rwhp. Its an Sv like mine.

Lambo= shape like a pizza box to pick up hookers.
Porsche= a real man's car who tracks it and drives it every day

Whats your point here, dude? That you can sink more money into the porsche than the Ford? Because if thats what you use as a benchmark, maybe you should be less
and a little more 
at your train of thought. I was referring to how well the Ford will respond to mods. It will run into the 10s with a good driver, sticky tires, a smaller pulley and maybe a pcm reflash. I havent seen a porsche do that yet.
On the other hand, if you are referring to the ability to spend 100k on top of the purchase price and wind up recovering about 25% of that when you sell it, then yes, I would imagine the p-car comes out ahead? Keep in mind the ford hasnt been out very long.

All this trash talk about Lambos being a bad *** car is making me girlie.
I don't see any Lambos on the race track. Lambos make good lawn onrament. It is a poser car, good for burnouts and picking up hookers at time square.
Only Drive Porsche. Yes, it is a two-word syllable.

If you wan tto put on 50K miles without worries and live in a big city.. i suggest a TT. If you want to use it to drive on weekends only and put no more then 5k miles year.. get the lambo. I got too much attention.. living in big city that going to the grocery store or Ice cream wih a girl turned into a spectacle. getting in and out of gas stations was sometimes difficult due to spectators as well. everyone wanted to talk to me .. check the car out.. including the cops.... and was asked many questions.. " what do you do for a living"
.. I started telling everyone thats its my dads.

My all time favorite car design remains the Lamborghini Miura.

The Gallardo with the track package is said to be several seconds faster around certain tracks than its normal counterpart, which on the Nurburgring still kicked the crap out of the 360CS.

I think I've seen pix of the TT Diablo but no videos sadly. Sounds like a monster.
