From the press release:



But according to this, you can choose whether you want to use it. Nice--gets the mileage up for the regulators, but you can disable it and not have to deal with it. http://www.lamborghini-talk.com/vbfo...hnology-61282/
I guess mine is off :-)

Wow. No comparison in looks department when right next to each other. Have to say though, I'd be happy with either.

I completely agree--I own(ed) both and both just amazing cars.

I got in more trouble in my GT3 than I have in Huracan.

GT3 begs you to drive it fast...great ride and a hell of a track car

looks great, I would of never considered Lambo in the past but starting with the Aventador I have been a fan. They appear to be trying to cater to the enthusiast more now then the look at me crowd but of course any Lambo still says look at me

I never liked the styling of the Huracan, but ever since I saw the test on Top Gear and when I saw it a couple of weeks ago driving past me.. That sound.....



Your configuration is the best looking Huracan I've seen so far, so congrats again.

German engineering/reliability meets Italian styling. Sort of hard to beat.

Ride felt comfortable, dare I say softer than the GT3, not in a bad way, just more usable I suspect. Overall, felt, looked, sounded like an exotic supercar. Love my GT3, but the ride after highlighted the difference - the GT3 felt like it had less sound insulation, less sheet metal, felt "thinner", smaller, more sports car vs. supercar. All fairly predictable I suppose.
I don't know how much of that "Italian" engineering is actually Italian if it is going to share bits of the car with The new Audi R8? What are we looking ar 610/620BHP? Out of that 5.2L V10?

Also, the rearview mirror look the same between the Gallardo and Huaracan.

It German engineering and Italian styling...and like most VW brands (Porsche included) they like to share things

ATX - please provide more pictures from all around the car. I really like the Huracan. In a year or two I will grab one with very low mileage. But I have to wait until I get sick of my GT3 which could take a couple years.
