Default So a Lamborghini Huracan shows up today...

(a friend of one of my club members), and bets my club member $500 that he would be faster than said club member in his stock NA Miata.









Miata was 7 seconds faster on a 32 second course.

Lambo dude handed Kyle the $500 and Kyle turned it down. Had the Lambo driver been a dick, he would have kept it.

Meh, exotics are becoming more mainstream these days. Other than the dog-assed red top on a matte gray body, the car wasn't anything special....other than the $200k price tag....that got beaten by a $1,000 Miata.

Back in the day a friend got a Countach and I was amazed that I actually standing next to one. Today, I don't think I would walk across the street to go look at an exotic. That's not a bad thing however. The modern exotics do drive great unlike the ones of yeasteryear.
