Following Carbon's numbers, the old CRX Si weighs 1500 lbs after you take out all the useless, heavy bits (I've seen even lower than that, but we won't go there). In order to match the efficiency of the Lambo (6.36 lbs/hp), it would only need to stuff 235.84 mythical Japanese dragons under it's rusty skin, which you can get from even mildly tinkering with a K20A.
Doesn't make sense? How can a 235hp festival of rust and frugality trounce a 572hp precision instrument of speed? Well, consider this: the Suzuki GSX1300R Hayabusa will go from 0-60 in about 2.5 seconds. It has only about 175 horsepower, but it only weighs about 500 lbs. That means it saddles every horsepower with less than half the weight of the Lambo, and it goes about twice as fast as a result. Make sense now?

if anyone argues with this they deserve a ban.
lol.
or they better provide a dammmn good counter argument with numbers and stats to back it up.
1. BECAUSE JAPANESE ARE SMARTER THAN ITALIANS. DUHRRRR

if u have the money to buy a bugatti veyron,ferrari enzo, lamborghini lp640 what does it matter...a 1200hp supra probualy will come close to 200k with all the mods u put in it anyways and would never drive as smooth or sound like any exotic car or appeal to people then a car that looks like it came out from the movie fast and furious....

I see you took my advice about pulling your head out of Lamborghini's ___. Good job putting the LP640 in the same league as the Enzo or Veyron. Please, go up to anyone that owns either the Enzo or the Veyron, and see if they want to race you in your stupid LP640; they will straight up laugh at you.
Meh, my lock sense is tingling.

Now, if you think it cost $200,000 to turn a $6,000 CRX into a 1500lb, 240whp vehicle, you are a moron.
And I'm sorry, but if you need to go out and buy a Lambo just to get laid, you suck at life.

A honda is a honda and A Toyota supra is a Toyota supra A Smart car is a Smart car But at the end of the day My car beat yours. It's not about the girls it's about the street cred. Girls you can get anywhere. Street cred is earned. Guys with super cars dont like to push their cars to the limit because they cost to much to maintain & insurance is too high. Mean while the guy with the sleeper doesn't have to pay that much money to punk a super car. Back in the day that was impossible. It just goes to show that technology is catching up to these super cars which makes me think that these super cars have been over hyped and over priced. In my opinon, a super car should never have to be up graded in order to beat a cheap or mid priced japanese import. I mean come on you pay all this $$$ so you can be king of the hill and not be threatened by a 4 banger. What is that ? And yeah, super cars can get you girls but nothing is more humiliating then having your supercar get beat by a japanese import with your girl next to you thinking that you where untouchable on the street and look at you now. And for the people that say "well if you were to upgrade the super car to see what would happen?" I say how much did that upgrade cost you ?Ahh... the price of my sleeper ? So don't hate the sleeper hate the supercar maker for making you pay all that $$ just to get beat by a sleeper. Next time tell them to make a better car like one that actually races at the Le Mans 24-Hours. If I remeber correctly the GT1 v8 Corvette C6.R is winning that battle. Where are all those super cars? bugatti veyron, ferrari enzo, lamborghini lp640 are nowere to be found. Oh, my bad, the the 12 Cylinder ferrari F430 GTs are in GT2 class but that class is slower then GT1. Oh, and what car can drift and beat a ferrari with a motorcycle motor and have fun doing indos for very little cash?

That second video is hi-larious, too. All these videos just make me want to buy a second-hand Smart and stuff some ridiculous engine into it.

Christ, that was fake. And what a doucher behind the heel of that Lambo.
Seems to me like some tools with a Lambo and a Honda got together and said "hurr hurr, you know what would be funny? If we took a video of the CRX walking the Lambo, put it on Streetfire, and watched everybody argue about it".

Effing idiots that don't understand power/weight. You guys need to go out more if you think this is fake. There are plenty of b18's out there capable of outdoing the Murcielago. Built and boosted ones can run upwards of 500 hp, and keep in mind the car weighs about half as much as the lambo. Also, unless you are illiterate, it said the Porsche has 700 hp, that's over a 100 more than the Lambo, plus its a Rear wheel drive platform so it loses less power to the wheels because of that.
