The P1 just has a raw race car feel to me and I just love it.

Clearly it's fairly quick too......

P1 > LaFerrari > 918. All exceptional cars but, McLaren for the win in my book.

For me it's P1>918> LaFerrari.

None of them are a disappointment though as the OP said. There are very few cars that can match what these 3 can do from the factory. The ACR crushes their lap times and the Huracan, R8, and Turbo S get close to them when it comes to 1/4 mile and 0-60.

La Ferrari should be the fastest in straight line acceleration but for some reason this car does not generates the 963 hp that Ferrari saids.

Sadly, the reason for this is pretty simple...

Ferrari lies.

You should see how much a LaFerrari actually weighs. There's a reason they don't want anyone to test it. It's still an amazing car, I just wish Ferrari would be an honest company and be proud of what it can do instead of boasting about things that it really can't do.

I've noticed Ferrari didn't want the car tested against the Porsche or Mac as well. I figured something was fishy.

Chris Harris's video on the comparison of all three did these cars justice. The margin on a road course was absolutely unreal. Leave it to America to care about a drag race.

LOL, it's really easy for you to think you have a point when you're best response is directed at a username vs, the thread material isn't it?

Here's some videos of good ole drag racing only in the U.S. since this is the only country that cares about it:

Oops that's England.

Oh snap that's Germany.

Damnit, that's France.

Japan.

New Zealand.

How is this happening!? You said "leave it to America to care about drag racing." Are you saying all these places like Germany, Japan and France are in America? I am so confused. Hmmmmm.

That's in Russia WTF is going on here?

In Africa too?

Sir, please explain.

I'm Italian, so European, and I can assure you that here (and especially in my country) the Drag Race is a sort of exotic event limited at Motor and Tuning Shows, except for England where the motorcycle drag has a relatively high success.
That doesn't mean that we have not some important or competitive championships (we have got Top Fuel Class too), but not followed like USA events. We rarely see it in TV or sport magazine... we prefer the Formula 1
For the sake of simplicity, in general Europeans evaluate cars for handling, driveability and things like that. Here a car is "fast" when beats others in tracks like Imola, Monza and Nurburgring... no one cares too much if a car is better in pure acceleration.

And to be in topic, well... I work in Modena, close to Maranello, and I see a LaFerrari at least one time a week. These are cars that don't perform at their best in a landing strip...
