My posts have stirred up some, uh, stuff lately. So let me ask... :praise:

Representing style, the '58 Cadillac. Representing speed, the Murcielago LP640. Why did I pick that car? Because, like the Caddy, it's outrageous, and it's frickin' fast. 219 MPH, 0-60 in 3.4.

I'm going to buy a tube radio so we can huddle round it and, by the light of a single candle, listen to President Obama's fireside chats.

I'll pick the Lambo, because I think it's a beautiful car in it's own right, and because a lot of fins piss me off.



I would've picked an E-type or XK 140/150 to represent style and an F40 or Enzo to represent speed, but to each their own.
As I write, highly civilized human beings are flying overhead, trying to kill me.

Depending on price, that could be a good deal.

You're getting it all wrong if you think it boils down to speed versus style.

I would've picked an E-type ....

Good man.

Anybody can go fast.  Looking good doing it is the trick.

I like both in a car and fortunately there are many cars that deliver.    I think the Murcielago has lot's of style. And no offense but I think the Cadillac is kind of ugly.

It looks better from the front, and while its one of the most sought after post war Caddies, I don't think its the best looking one of that era either.

But maybe again it would hae been better to choose a Lamborghini with more style?
