      Hard to control enthusiasm for such an epic comparison. Yes, these are all super expensive cars. The Aventador though is much, much more money than the GT2RS or the SLS AMG. Drag racing does not prove a supercars worth but it sure is fun to see. The Aventador was launched using launch control and with its all wheel drive and ISR transmission that does make a bit of a difference. We will not spoil what happens, watch the video and enjoy.

        Rediculous! I wonder what the weight is. The 997 GT2 RS is got left and that is a FAST car.

        GT2 is by no means slow... And got flat out destroyed, I'm researching no extradition countries so I can embezzle the dough for this ride LOL. Seriously this car is impressively fast though I can't say I love the looks of it

        Wow. I am also pretty impressed how the SLS kind of hangs onto the GT2.

        I'm glad they didn't put up numbers. There would have been a lot of pissed off people.

        If they were "hundred" dollar stacks instead you might already have an Aventador.

        I wonder what would happen if the GT2RS was fitted with a PDK
