Enzo Ferrari told a man "you may be able to drive a tractor but you will never be able to handle a Ferrari Properly" the man was so pissed he vowed to create the perfect car, his name, Ferruccio Lamborghini. All Lambo's have gone downhill since the Countach IMO.
No they really havn't, The Lamborghinis of today are much more in style of what Ferruccio intended to make(which was the perfect GT car). Then the cars of his era.
The Miura was a casket on wheels, at speeds above 100 mph. The front would take of and making steering impossible. Not to forget the bonnet would flew up thanks to bad placement of mounts. Last but not least you had a number of electric issues, thanks to bad wiring.
Then you had the Countach, which looked great. But was a UTTER piece of **** to drive. The clutch is heavy as **** and you have ZERO visibillity thanks to the giant spoiler(A spoiler which infact does nothing but to add weight). Last but not least, it was wide as **** , so everytime you had to go down a narrow street. You had to be EXTREMLY carefull not to strach the sides.
And the Diablo was no better, it too suffered from a heavy clucth and bad electric.
Not to forget it was prone to overheating. Most of these issues however were fixed by 98 when Audi got there hands on Lamborghini.
Even before that, they kinda started drifting away from what made them ludicrous. I think the new ones are all kind of ugly. It's like they started trying to hard to make crazy cars.
Your quote is right, but the rest is pure bs.
Context is everything "“All my Ferraris had clutch problems. When you drove normally, everything was
fine. But when you were going hard, the clutch would slip under acceleration; it
just wasn't up to the job. I went to Maranello regularly to have a clutch
rebuilt or renewed, and every time, the car was taken away for several hours and
I was not allowed to watch them repairing it. The problem with the clutch was
never cured, so I decided to talk to Enzo Ferrari. I had to wait for him a very
long time. 'Ferrari, your cars are rubbish!' I complained. Il Commendatore was
furious. "Lamborghini, you may be able to drive a tractor but you will never be
able to handle a Ferrari Properly.' This was the point when I finally decided to
make a perfect car. "
For some reason these really high end four doors always are super gorgeous.

But then i realized i loading propane into it because i work at a rental store and will never own a porsche
