teh w00t can mean several things to different people. To me, the term derived from the Internet's infamous video of the "whistle tip." Bubba Rub expressed profound enthusiam as he imitated the sound of the whistle tip installed in his car. Today, forum goers and counterstrike players unite and express their adamant joy of happiness or victory by saying "w00t" w00t is spelled with two zeros indicating the influence of 1337 speak.

w00t has been around WAY longer than that video... I've been saying it for years.

so you pay $150k more for just the badge glued onto the car, what a waste.

Just like how you would pay $1.50 for a bag of silver M&M while you can pay $.99 for a bag of plain M&M colors (Brown,Red,Blue,Green,yellow)

The Gallardo is its little brother. Smaller,less power and cheaper.
