Saying Hello

Just wanted to say hello to this area of the forum. I've been here for about two years. Took delivery of a 2017 Huracan a little over a week ago and have never owned a car I loved more. Looking forward to chatting with you here!

 

Thanks, everyone! I have to say, the Huracan is the best car I've ever driven. It was a love affair from the start. If only there were more places to park, it would be a DD.

Here's a few pics. The second two were from the showroom in L.A. where it was shipped from. The first is after delivery. I had the wheels powdercoated black.

Curb appeal is important to me, but I also own a 360 and a GT-R, so it's not my first exotic. I love the looks and had them find me the car in green because that is my favorite look, but the looks have nothing to do with the drivability.

I tested a Porsche GT3, 458 Italia, McClaren 650S before I bought. For me, the Huracan is the only car that I felt had perfect ergos. Everything about the seat positioning in relation to my arms and reach was perfect. I have a mid back injury so ergos are important. Then there's the engine. It's seamless when shifting gears, whether in automatic or using the paddles. The sound is incredible and the power is linear like a jet taking off. Add all wheel drive and you have an unbeatable combination. For me. IMMV

I should add, I also kart and driving the Huracan is very similar to driving my kart, just a lot more comfortable.

 

I have no idea. This is my first foray into Lamborghinni, so I'm not sure of the previous design. But I do love all the detail in the interior as well as the helpful features, like being able to raise the front end. We have a huge bump to get in our drive and this is the only car that doesn't drag.

 

It's Audi engineering, so I have high hopes for reliability. It's as easy to drive as a GT-R, which requires one to only know how to press the gas and turn the steering wheel. My 360 is a lot harder to drive with the single clutch transmission. View is great, but I only drive with the top down, so there's that. It is very quick (0-60 in 2.9) and turning/stopping are fantastic.

Comfort is a highly questionable thing. I find it comfortable enough although I wish it had more leg space as I have long legs. Of all the cars I tested, the Mclaren was the absolute worst to get in and out of. The ride on the Huracan is way smoother than I thought it would be. In fact, I have to watch the dash constantly, because in no time, I'm doing 90 and it feels like 50. For real comfort though, I get in my SUV with the huge cushy seats.
