given those two statements i recommend you check out the gallardo superleggera

i spent time with one recently and it was fantastic. extremely easy to drive fast, phenomenal performance and customizable out of the box

I am certain a Lambo is all of that....but to be honest there are a least a half a dozen cars I would choose before that, not because the lambo isnt a great machine by anybodies standards but because it is in no way a practicle car.....
Although I am not interested in a daily I would want a car I could put my girlfriend, my youngest boy and some gear and head to Bayfield for the weekend....something like a CL class or if a two seater an SL. truthfully I am on a bit of a MB kick but there are reasons......
For example you could take a mid to late 90's SL 500 ($20 k car) and with simple bolt on parts be pushing 500 hp and easily that in torque .....all for around 35k done and done . This is a car I would not feel bad about beating on , a lambo on the other hand is in reality less of a drivers car than one would tipically think. Are you really gonna want to beat down a car that plumits in value if you put more than 10k klms on it a year.....especially considering your buy in cost....
Although I can honestly say I have been fortunate of late financially it seems like when you can have most anything you want you cant be bothered getting it. My point being that I think the enjoyment would be in the build verse the buy.
just my opinion

by the way if I ever got off my wallet this is what I would buy
