Put a Ferrari up on a lift. Then say whether it's poorly assembled. The build quality on a Ferrari is awful compared with any of its Italian competitors. I've seen a Testarossa, F355, and a 360 Challenge on a lift. The Testarossa was pitiful, I can't believe those cars sold for what they did, not a single weld on that thing is good. The fins on the side appear to be an afterthought, they're held on to the side via a 10mm silver hex head bolt that can clearly be seen. Although they were able to that because the only person to see that would be the guy you just ran over.

The quality got better through the years but, not good enough to drop $100K on one.

You can't really even compare Ferrari and Lamborghini anymore. The Gallardo is German/Italian built. As is the Murcielago now.

An F355 is an amazing car to drive, just think 400hp go kart. Nothing and I mean nothing sounds like a Ferrari and it has a breathtaking exhaust note. Given the choice between Lambo or Ferrari, I'd chose the Gallardo. Gallardo with Egear and a Tubi is a close second.
