I was browsing for videos on my Euromillions car of choice (well, one of!), the Lexus LFA and came across this video:

I did not realise just how quick the MP4-12C was (even if my two door barge sounded insane!) but the Aventador is amazing.

It looks absolutely stunning.

Aventador launch is absolutely savage.. can't imagine that clutch is going to take many of those!

Cant believe the Aventador stays so close to the Veyron over a quarter either, I'm sure it'd get embarrassing soon afterwards though.

LFA(and the Carrera GT to be fair) can't be beaten for sound though IMO.

You're right, the McLaren is very very quick. But to put it in perspective - at the weekend I was playing in a 12C and a Veyron - we were doing standing starts, that sort of thing in them. It's astonishing how much quicker the Veyron was than the McLaren. Truly astonishing.

Neither car used launch control, but even so - the difference surprised me.

I realise this post seems the work of fantasy, but it's very genuine. We're putting together a video at the moment, a teaser here to give you an idea (I was in the Veyron)

It'd be fun to passenger a launching Aventador, i bet it'd be mental. Good video.

Aventador noise > LFA noise.

In fact, just give me an Aventador and I'll keep it forever. In black, please.
