What's not to love, unless of course you don't have $$$.

I would rather have a car that is incredibly fast built by myself rather than a factory, and i would rather have a sleeper that a car that EVERYONE knows is hella fast, but i must say, that car is insane...

Its not a factory car. Well it is but the twin turbo was done by a shop in Florida.

I know what your saying about building it yourself. But some of us dont have the know how to install a Turbo kit or something complicated like that. Some of us(me included) can take it to a shop and make more money than it costs to pay someone to do the work. I like doing the work myself but I can pay a mechanic $200 to do 2 hours worth of work that would take me 6 hours. If I were to go to work for those 6 hours I would make a lot more than $200.

You want to see insane wait to see some vids from the few guys that are doing the 1000hp kits to their Gallardos. The Murcie in the vid had roughly 800.

haha. The Gallardo is a 5.0L V10, Murcielago is a 6.2L V12 new ones are 6.5. And they rev to 8k+ rpm. These cars are not about having hug cams and high compression engines. These things are somewhat small engines mildly built. The lambos sounds a lot better than Ferraris imo. The ferraris are 4.3l V8s and sound a lot like F1 cars. Lambos sound more deap.
