     Lamborghini and Ferrari compete for being the better luxury car, but for a purchaser Ferrari is better based of it’s reliability, speed, and because it is not costly. Why are these three ideas important? A suggestion is that if you’re going to buy a car of this kind you have to be sure it is fast to move from place to place in less time, it has to be less expensive because of financial problems it can bring, and it has to ensure you safety when riding the car at any speed. Ferrari against Lamborghini, both excellent choices, but Ferrari would be better because the Ferrari has been proven to be faster than the Lamborghini, less costly compared to the Lamborghini, and more reliable (in case of any accidents).

Ferrari has been shown to be more superior to the Lamborghini because of what they mostly have different things from each other, when it comes to cost and how expensive one is more than the other. Lamborghini’s base price was $212,000 and the price after time would be $274,000 that includes all the costs of the color, speed boosts, and other additional decorations. On the other hand, Ferrari’s base price starts at $226,620 and after time it would cost $274,000 also including extra costs of decorations, and other extra (only necessary for style).

Going back into time both cars of excellence was released for sell. In 1964 the first Lamborghini (350GT) was presented to the public under supervision of Furriccio Lamborghini the manager of the creation of these “new technology cars”. In 1947 the first Ferrari (125S) was presented to the world by Enzo Ferrari (Created after his last name for being the manager of this project). Both cars were considered new era of cars because of their uniqueness. Ferrari who had more style and shine was the one that was more popular in reliability. Really, how reliable are these cars? Ferrari and Lamborghini’s were put into tests to find out which is more reliable. Ferrari was claimed to be the most reliable due to it’s strength in crashing and safety with the Lamborghini getting a lower amount of stars in the grade of the car strength.

Lamborghini and the Ferrari are both really fast cars, but when you purchase a car you would want it to have a pretty large amount of speed, wouldn’t you? These cars of excellence have improved since the date of their release and both start at a speed considered “kind of impressive”. The first and newly presented Lamborghini was able to go at top speed of 148.8 mph. On the contrary the Ferrari was able to go at a top speed of 217 mph. Ferrari who started winning on their first creation, now continues to stay in the spot of victory. Lamborghini’s now weigh at 3600 pounds, which start it to a fast speed of 60 mph in 3.4 seconds. Ferrari who has had a huge amount of improvement goes at a speed of 217.5 mph in 3.6 seconds. Surprising to see how there are huge differences when it comes to speed, isn’t it?

In conclusion, Ferrari and Lamborghini are in a lot of competition. Today and Yesterday these cars were mostly different but with many studies and contests Ferrari comes out to be the victor in being the better luxury car over the Lamborghini. Another reason that the Ferrari is more worth to buy is because of the fact that Ferrari offers more accessories for style and it offers more engines and other car parts to add improvements to the car. Based on speed and reliability Ferrari is the better car.
