Those amazing facts and figures you read in a car’s brochure really mean nothing until you see them in action. That’s what the guys at Autocar have done with the Lamborghini Aventador. They wanted to see if this V12 hypercar is as fast as Lambo says it is. So they lined it up against the Mercedes SLS and Porsche GT2 RS for a drag race. Granted it’s not a fair test because the Benz has a V8 and the Porsche a flat-six — and they’re both 80 grand cheaper than the Lambo — but it will give you some perspective on how fast this beast really is. The way this thing takes of the line and gathers speed is just incredible.
