To own, it'd be the Aston every time - I'm not sure there's a finer looking bit of 4-wheeled machinery that would look better than that sat outside my house.

But, to kick it's face in round a race track..?

Ferrari or the 911 for me I think.

The Lambo & R8 are not "essentially the same car". They share some interior parts and build quality parts but are fundamentally different. And so is the driving experience. 911 will be too refined for restrictive playtime; the Aston will bore you unless you get your thrills from admiring a plush interior and comfortable ride (in which case try a Merc and you'll get the same results); Ferrari is better performance than the Aston, so:

Lambo for exclusivity;
Ferrari because its a Ferrari (and its more fun than an Aston);
Porchse/R8.

Lambo, because it's the only one with machine guns and fins and rocket launchers.

Well I think the poll reaches the same conclusion I had myself. I will be going for the Gayado. The order of preference for me was:

Lambo
R8
Ferrari
Porsche
Aston

The Porsche and the Aston were last on the list as they seem more attainable. There is a possibility of ownership (years down the road after years of depreciation), whereas the others are just out of reach. The ferrari came in third as it is "only" an old 360. Sheesh! That is like 2 generations old now. Pauper. The R8 always gets great reviews and may be dynamically superior to the Gallardo....but it ain't a Lambo....and as Jambo says "it's the only one with machine guns and fins and rocket launchers".

So there you have it.

Porsche 911 what... you can buy the bottom spec porsche for not a lot and it's slow... a GT3 RS or Turbo however would be fun, but still attainable.

Aston and R8 are boring.

Which leave the Ferrari and Lambo.

If I was going to buy something, it would be the Lambo... hopefully before I'm 35 lol. It's fast, subtle and sounds amazing.

For just playing about in, the Ferrari has the noise, the rawness, the drama... so that's what I'd pick.

Says it for me...

My huge lotto win will see an Aston on the drive.
