    So Iv been in Melbourne for the last week for the Grand Prix and had a few days spare, after looking at a Mclaren 650s in a show room I though I wonder if I could

    And bam with in 15 hours I found my self sitting in the hot seat of a lamborgini gallardo about to go for a 1 hour strap for $400

    Not a bad way to start the day

    Old mate didnt mind at all that I fearly feed it to either changing at 8000rpmm

    Nice … Iv also driven one !!!

    Even better a mates dad has a white aventador … It’s a rocket ship , leaves you speechless every time I see it .

    Iv done a Porsche experience day at the island , cost was $1000 for full day , got to drive all the new line up at the time (2010)

    and at the end of the day was taken for a 4 lap thrash in a Porsche cup car … One word … Epic !!!!!

    That awesome

    I seen a white adventador drive past the front of the crown (on spencer st is it)on about Monday or Tuesday

    Was breath taking looking machine

    If i planed it better I would do a full day getting to drive a few, I seen a full day with 6 supercars but don’t think there was a track involved

    At the end of the day you only live once and chances of owning something like these isn’t great yet along a whole different bunch of them over your life time so really unless your a billion air this is the only way to experience a whole bunch of them

    Did you notice a noticable difference between say a 911 compared to a gt2 or rs or gt3 depending on witch you got to drive ??

    Like did you notice $100K difference or just a little better in every way ?

    Yes there was quite a difference in performance … The GT3 was my favorite , that sound !!!

    I went from a boxter to the turbo s … That was the biggest ‘gap’ in performance for the day , the grip and speed of the turbo was insane !!!!

    I really enjoyed at the time … the wife and me were thinking about a big purchase (new cayman) we ended up not buying one though and went with something else

    Yep I could imagine goin from a coxter to a turbo would be quite a gap

    I would love to do this one day to give a in site to a whole line of the makes and the differences involved where if you just drive say a turbo or GT2 you don’t know how much above the others it really it is of how much ride comfort has been sacrificed for it
