    So I got a chance to accomplish a childhood fantasy today, I drove a Lamborghini! Granted it wasn’t a Countach from my youth but it was a V12 Special edition Murciélago, Black/ black with sick chrome rims. 570 hp!

    The car is very long, has a crappy turning radius and with a non adjustable seats I could barely reach the pedals (I’m 5’10” but I sit very close to the wheel in my cars.)

    The Sound was ridiculous! I didn’t get a chance to really open it up but the few times I floored it it pulled very hard.
    Man, that made my week!

    crappy turning radius and non-adjustable seats? Seems like a no-brainer that you'd want better in a car like that.
    But goddamn, who cares, it's a fucking Lamborghini! Awesome!

    Just like my ride in 4sevens Arial Atom, I bet that car just ruined your driving experience forever. Nothing will ever compare to the feel of the Atom. My car felt so incredibly slow after that, and nothing will ever live up to it.

    Why did you get to drive the Lambo? Are you righting an article on it or anything, or a buddy got one and was dumb enough to let you take it out?

    Why wouldn't the seat be adjustable? Is that something that's factory designed for the buyer?

    ttiwwop!
