One Car to Rule Them All....

If you're a car geek, you've probably asked yourself "If I can only have one car the rest of my life, what would it be?"  That's a very difficult question, one that I couldn't answer for a long time.  But now, after seeing this car, I have a definite answer.

Although Ferrari's are the better driver's car, Lamborghini is the essence of the Italian supercar:  fast, loud, beautiful, and a bit lewd.  Lately though, with the takeover by Audi, Lambos have gotten a bit more....German.  What's left are cars that retain their Italian flair, combined with German sensibility and engineering.

So how can you improve on such an excellent combination?  With good old-fashioned American excess, that's how.  Heffner Performance of Sarasota, FL has done just that, bolting on two turbochargers to the Gallardo's V-10.  Output goes from an already outstanding 552 horses to a maniacal 850.

The video above displays the sound and sheer lunacy of this car.  And if you look closely at the dashboard, you'll see that through all this hard charging it's 100 degrees outside.
