Congrats, and good choice on the RWD car...should be a LOT of fun! Modern Lamborghinis are a great combo of German and Italian design and engineering. And I think you will find the Lamborghini after-sale ownership experience to be far better than Porsche.
A lot of douchey Lambo owners for sure but, hey, same can be said of many Porsche owners...

I have always heard this but never understood why...isn't it a colossal PITA? I would think the cool factor would last until the first time you enter a parking structure or tollbooth and need to awkwardly get out of your car and walk around to the other side of it...not to mention passing, pulling out of parking spaces in a car with challenged rear visibility, etc.

Also, statistically, LHD and RHD has the same rate of accident in Japan. No difference at all these days.
For those that find it hard with LHD here, sorry to point this, they haven't driven long enough or haven't acquired enough driving expertise.

My huracan is now delivered to me. Yes! As promised, here are some photos from its flatbed to my garage.
While other people's opinion may be different, in my opinion, P car is like a hawk with its precision and stamina when catching a prey, F car is like a race horse sprinting on finish line, and lambo is like a bull in bullfighting.
Driving it is ridiculously quick and raw. Cornering during normal driving feels very precise with so-so feedback to its steering wheel. Steering wheel is very light like 991 with power steering plus. I still haven't gotten used to the steering.
Obviously it has electronic control like 991 PASM etc, but they are not very engaging like 991.
Overall the exhaust note is just intoxicating. In strada (normal) mode, the exhaust note is similar to 991 PSE with NA engine. At higher RPM, it rumbles loud like F cars. In sports / racing mode, it's super loud like F1 cars.
The seat has lumbar support and everything, but the surface is quite hard compares to normal 991. It feels like the sports seat in GT3, but firmer. I don't think this is built for long drive.
I'll post more reviews on it in a couple of weeks as I get used to the driving.
Thanks again to rennlisters for making this happen!
