Future choices

So as some of you may know, I'm 16 with a V6 Camaro and a F-150 FX2. My dad just bought a COD Black Ops Jeep which is badass. We have a Mercades and Hummer as well. My dad wants one of two cars. There is a 2011 brand new Dodge Viper with white with blue stripes we could add to the garage, or an Orange 2008 Gallardo with scissor doors. Everyone wants the Gallardo except for his girlfriend- and we'd have to sell the Hummer and my truck in chance. What's your opinion? And no I'm not bullshitting, I'm not a 8 year old wanting attention.

Viper. But I'm partial due to the fact that the cars are gorgeous.

I personally want the Gallardo, and am willing to loose the truck for it. The Viper looks the part... But still, I'm hoping Lamborghini. There was also a fresh 392 SRT-8 Challenger that I eye-raped; one hot car- especially that interior matched Hemi Orange to the ext color...

I would say the Viper except that there is no such thing as a 2011 Viper. Viper production stopped July 1, 2010 (last one was Gold w/Orange stripes btw) and after a year or so break, the "rebooted" Viper is supposed to be back as a 2012 or 2013 model.

If it's a 2010 Viper....I vote Viper.

Gallardo or Viper??? Sounds like a dilemma I would love to have. Both are head turners. Guess you gotta drive them both and see which feels the best to you.

Viper. Gallardo is all hype, Viper doesn't get enough credit. & The Viper would be newer.

I'd say Gallardo except it has scissor doors. IMO those belong on the Murcielago.

If your dad doesn't end up buying it, please send me a PM with the asking price.

Okay 2010 Viper, sorry on the 2011 error. The Gallardo is $274,490. I'm going to try to talk him into the Viper today, if I do, he'll buy it today and I'll have pictures up tonight! And the reason I'm not in a 2SS/RS is my dad bought the car on impulse and didn't research it, and he wanted me to mod a bit instead of the top package - also my friend had a 2SS/RS and totaled it 2 times and had a ticket over 100 (lost his license) but anyway Viper! I can't wait to drive it. It has 19 miles on it from factory and lot driving! I'll keep all of you updated

I drove a Viper, loved it. My only negative is I felt like the clutch was like on a 18 wheeler truck. Felt like i was trying to push in 5 cinder blocks. No traction control + V10 is
