According to internet searches on ground clearance, the Lamborghini Huracan has higher ground clearance than a Porsche 911... is this really true? If so, how does that reconcile with all the horror stories of lambos being extremely hard to get into most parking lots? I am confused.

this is a technical forum for air cooled 911 cars built up to 1989 , so i am confused now too

This is most definitely the wrong forum for that question. I assume if you're comparing Lamorghinis and Ferraris, you are actually wondering about later model (992) GT3s, RSes, etc.

In that case, all of those are available with front axle lift which mitigate scraping, but I will say the FAL on the 992 GT3 will often cause you to scrape the rear diffuser when going up a steep driveway, etc.

Anyhow, ask your question in the 992 GT3 forum instead because there are lots of folks there with all 3 of those cars who can better answer your question.

I am not.. I have a 2018 911s and I also own a 78 911 SC. I had seen a video of a guy who preferred his 911 to his Lamborghini due to issues involving ground clearance (parking lots/drive ways / speed bumps etc ) so I go to wondering what the diff was between Porsche 911's and lambos and other super cars. I was shocked to see higher values on Lamborghinis (135mm) vs Porsche at 109mm. Thats all.

FWIW, I can tell you my 911 is a lot easier to get in and out of places than my f355 was. The 355 had a long low nose.
