FFS, NO!, just NO. That is an horrific pustule of a design, my eyes now feel like they've been raped by aliens. The P1 is far more fluid (except for that front 3/4 shot for some reason) and looks like a logical design evolution from the MP4-12C.

dRuMB, I think you need a stout twatting.
I'll be happy with just the stout if you're buying.

Very broadly speaking, I'd imagine someone between 35 and 50 like George Clooney driving a DB5 since I see it as a sportscar for mature people, and anyone from this list (no homo) http://www.listal.com/list/hottest-actors-under-25
driving the ever so extrovert Lambo. Having said that, I'm 96 and I'd still have the Lambo. DB5 is gorgeous but not exciting or flashy enough for me.
Would you really want people to gawk at you as you drive past? I had an RS4 when they first came out around 2006, and that was just a saloon car, and the amount of people who stared at me in that was just infuriating. I was glad to get rid of it. I can't imagine how bad it would be if you were in a supercar. Literally having cameras flashing every time you got in and out, it would completely ruin the experience. Whereas with a DB5, the only people who'd draw your attention would be people who truly appreciated the vehicle.
Also, funnily enough, and I'm surprised you haven't acknowledged this, since you're from London as well, but the Lambo is classically driven by people in the Clooney age-bracket. You almost never see a younger guy driving one, unless it's some rich 20 year old Arab kid parking outside Harrods. THe Lambo is actually the ultimate old man's car.

Clarkson's discussed this on Top Gear more than once. He basically says the same thing, supercars are a pain in the ass to own and attract all the wrong sort of attention.
