Who drives a Lamborghini or Ferrari? How do they drive/handle?

Answer 1

It may be obvious in a short period that most of those who drive such automobiles have little interest in Answers. I'm partial to the Diablo though, exotic.

Answer 2

While I don't own anything by either maker, I have had the chance to drive some examples of both makes while instructing at Open Track events... and would add in relation to earlier comments, that while there are some race derived technologies in these cars, and they may not be very well suited for daily driving, they are definitely not race cars (though they can be fun at the track).

Alot will depend on the specific car you are talking about. As a generalization I find Ferraris to be much better handling cars, mostly due to having a much better chasis and balance. Recent model Ferrari's (F355 and later) have amazing balance, are very responsive, and while they do suffer a little understear wtih factory allignment settings, it is much less than most cars with factory settings. The cars have lots of grip, great braking, and lots of power. However, cost of ownership is high enough that even where these can be reliable cars for an automobile like this, they would still not be practical for regular use (but fun to drive and look great).

Lamborghini's are a bit of a different animal. In fact, going back to the Diablo and earlier, I think the chasis are completely substandard. They look great, have lots of power and an impressive mechanical grip thanks to the massive tires, but the chasis feels creaky and lose and not at all inspiring of confidence... though in some ways the lack of a good chasis magnifies the car's feel of power, but I would not call these good handling cars. More awkward, but still somewhat capable. The current offerings since the company has been owned by VW have made vast improvements in chasis from what I've heard, but I've not had the chance to sample these myself. They had a long way to go to catch up to Ferrari so I would imagine they are still a ways behind, but it's good that they are finally putting more attention into the chasis.

Answer 3

My Ferrari 400i handles like an extension of my mind. Driveout is a little stiff at low speeds and smoother at highway speed. The V-12 revs quickly and you must pay close attention to the tachometer when accelerating. It is not a dragster off the line, but gets cooking in a hurry above 2000 revs. Redline is 6500.

Answer 4

Race cars have a different design, these are not every day commuter cars. Even the tires are for racing tracks, not street racing.
Known as 'organ jigglers' for lack of ride comfort, low slung to the ground that it hits going up a drive way.
