@anthony I know thats what that abarth's 0-60 is but it also has the same hp numbers as this and there isn't that much weight reduction done for this model compared to the abarth so the 0-60 on this can't be that much better

Well the Abarth with 133 hp gets to 62 in 7.9 seconds and it weights less than 2200 lbs. That is super light and pretty fast for "that little of power." that is what Lamborghini is trying to get people to realize. If you have a super light car, you

Believe it or not but just the stock ones are pretty peppy and I think the only have 101hp

Payne Hodges Wilson Nov 03, 2011
And with only 133hp that limit won't be very high it still has a little too much weight for that little amount of power

Thomas Opie Taylor Nov 03, 2011
