Which one of these supercars do you think draws the most attention?? See if your opinion matches Fifth Gears test. ![Smilie](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif)

I guessed right. IMO its still the most daring design.

I saw a Carrera GT once and it didn't even look that spectacular in person, it was a lot smaller than it looked in pics. It almost looked like a stretched Boxster. I would imagine if I didn't know cars, I wouldn't have even thought twice about the Carrera GT
Any Lambo definitely draws attention, even from people who know nothing about cars
The SLR looks great, but it also looks kind of like a longer SL
I would say the Lambo would draw the most looks but I didn't watch the video so I'm probably completely wrong

I think the Carrera GT is actually the most unique looking of the 3. I see the point that it looks like a stretched Boxster, but the LP640 looks exactly like any other Lamborghini, and those are very common here. I see SLRs frequently, too.

Having seen a few Lambos parked at the Four Seasons downtown, that is
always the case. Murcielago owns EVERYTHING else. It's not even close.
Get a lime green or orange one and you will get even more attention, which
could be a bad bad thing at times![Stick Out Tongue](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/tongue.gif)
The SLR will probably put everyone to sleep. It just doesn't look all that
interesting. Carrera GT is fabulous, but not that attention grabbing if
you're not an enthusist IMHO.

lamborghini will attract more attention. Somer enthusiasts say it defines the term exotic car. It initially did and still does. The forms and body design from lamborghini have always been more radical than ferrari, porsche,etc

It certainly is cheaper. Annual pricing for most point-system share programs is very inexpensive, and there are also steep discounts for off-peak (e.g., weekday) rentals. I got quotes from several programs, and calculating off the per-day mileage limitations for an F430 Spider, it is actually cheaper to do a share than just the ownership maintenance and insurance alone, prorated per mile (based on limited-mileage insurance and Wynn-Penske's projected maintenance costs). Of course, this is only a theoretical comparison (after all, not everyone is going to drive the daily mileage limitation every time they take out a share), but that still amazed me. Plus, to compare the actual cost difference we'd have to add the ridiculous premium over MSRP that these are demanding, not to mention depreciation, on top of that!
The share programs also offer the ability to drive many different types of vehicles. I'm very interested in joining such a club and would have if I didn't have uncertainty about where need to move within the country due to work. I'm always in a big city though, so hopefully more of these companies will branch to locations in every metro across the US.
