I don't remember but 400bhp sounds about right so that's probably it. I haven't seen that video in a long time. I'm still sure a diablo would smoke an evo on the top end.

yes indeed, it's just the weight, and suspension set-up got the murc on the closed course ... a highway race.. lol, the evo would be toast, lol

Top gear did show the EVO MR to be quicker than the Lambo. (And the Merceloago is faster than the Diablow or whatever/however they are spelled.)
I'm impressed that with VW buying up Lambo, the cars have improved in quality and style not to mention in reliability for sure.
Ask yourself this question. Would you rather cross the country in the following cars.
Diablo?
EVO MR?
STI?
88 Supra?
I'd have to pick the Supra every time.
The Diablo is small inside.
The EVO has no cruise control.
The STI has seats to narrow for my ass.
And the Supra is comfortable, fast and quite invisable to the PD mostly. (Just another old car cruising along the highway, no need to notice it at all.)

yes that is another great advantage to the mk3 over the mk4 our camo lol and yes the lambo would smoke an evo in a staght line but how meny roads in washington are straght from more then a mile.:naughty:Adjuster said:

Yes I've been twice, but only in the winter, I don't doubt that there are lambo's in the summer, but for the police department to use them as patrol cars... I'm alittle doubtful.
Also the Lancer OZ rally's are FWD, 120hp I believe. The Evolution is the only AWD turbo Lancer.
how did i miss this thread
well guys the bad news is that it is a cop car
the GOOD news is that it was outfitted this way for a photosession and nothing else.

Yeah, no Diablo police cars. Winter in Denver is can easily be in the 70's.
The day of "the Fumble" by Earnest Byner was about 70.

About the whole Denver PD and Lambo thing :bsflag:
Research it, you'll never find it, and I've been to Denver many, many times and the best I've seen is a Camaro. Why would they spend well over 100k for a patrol car when they can buy a couple helicopters with it. You know they won't be doing any "pit manuevers" with it, so what is the point of it?

how about you research it before you tell others to do so, the lambo is real, i don't know about the denver PD, but the gallardo is real
The police cars I've seen in Florida are crazy. I've seen the new Marauders, Chargers, Corvettes, an MKIV, and a Sunfire pull people over. I saw a whole bunch of police Chargers yesterday because someone robbed a bank near where I work and whole bunch of them were speeding by. Like 7 or 8 of them. All dark grey with a darker grey "Davie Police" logo on them. No light bars, just the lights in the grill.
