I am all for the efficiency of turbo cars, but for someone who drives hard a turbo car is going to take just as much/more gas. My 335 actually averaged 1mpg lower than my m3.
Btw here's a couple videos you asked for:

Just so you are aware; those 2 Gallardos are the very early production models which happen to be the slowest ones they made. Would you like to see this race again with the new M5 which traps over 122 MPH in the 1/4?
It's funny that all of these arguments are coming from the NA M3 boys; coincidence? I don't think so. Enjoy your last high revving NA motor because come next year and 2013 you will be losing in every race including the daily driver race.
