this is my kind of car: big, plush, and with a bit of speed worked in edgewise. in any case, its a fast car for its size

when your buying a car like this , you dont thinkt of speed, just drive in an upmost state of luxury and refinery, not chased by police on the highway, you dummy,

although, when you can afford a car like this, you dont mind to pay a speeding ticket or two.. lol

I Need the money Damn't

Jeremy Clarkson, Topgear 1993( about the start off Lamborghini sportcars):
" You can do something for love, you can do something for money, but there is nothing as satisfying as doing something out off spite. And were it not for spite, one of the biggest legends in automotive history would never have existed. Sir Ferrucio Lamborghini didn't like Enzo Ferrari and to spite him, he made a better car. "

This car weights about 5,400lbs. and yes it could do 180 without the limiters in place. Stopping all that weight is another issue but the company says it can stop from 60mph in 3.5 sec!

Why does it need to go faster? is the driver going to drive his passagers at 150 mph? they're usaly old and want to go slow

the 155 is just the confidence in what this car can do, you're never going to do it though./

First of all look at the torque: 555 lb.ft.!!!!!! If that doesn't tell you enough, look at the rpm's that the horsepower AND torque are at!!! I mean 4000 and 2000, and since when is 6 seconds slow, especially in a 5400 lb. vehicle!!! You tell me of another limo that fast!!!
My Top Ten Imported Supercars:
1) Ferrari Koenig F50 TT (RAWEST FUKIN' ITALIAN POWER ON THE PLANET)
