Obviously I'm talking about modern day models.

I think my Boxster RS60 drives sublime, it's like a mini F430. I have driven the Murcie at Thruxton in 2003 and it was truly intoxicating - but it didn't have the precision or feedback of the Ferrari 430 or Porsche Turbo I drove. I know these aren't direct competitors but...

Have Lamborghini moved their game on? Do they make brilliant drivers cars now?

Thanks.

Thanks. Though one of the reasons for posting this is I have seen quite mixed reviews of the way they drive, in comparison to say a GT3 for which I have never seen anything but positive comments.

99% of the time those are not apples for apples comparisons; Lamborghini is still first and foremost a manufacturer of blood and thunder supercars.

If your priorities in a car purchase are outright performance and kart-like steering you need to be looking for a Radical, Caterham, atom etc. rather than any Porsche or Ferrari.

Lamborghini is (for me at least) about being utterly, utterly barking mad. 100% a 'heart' purchase, not a head one. That they drive extremely well is a bonus.

No they don't.
That doesn't make them lesser cars.
