It is also white, and as we all know, the only non-police car that looks good in white is the Opel Monza GSE.
You may be confusing the Opel Manta GT/E Coupe with the Monza. The Opel Moza GSE looked better in silver. See for yourself

Now I'm going to waste hours looking for a Manta ... thanks!

Was in Miami recently. These things were everywhere.
I then spoke to a Lamborghini dealer in Denver. Said he cannot order enough of them.
Be interesting to see if Ferrari's version will be just as popular.
Much more so would be my guess.I then spoke to a Lamborghini dealer in Denver. Said he cannot order enough of them.

Market is being flooded with all brands.
New buyers seem to love them.
Having the latest and greatest is important.
But will used buyers want the running costs later?
I’m trying to think who exactly would want a 10 year old Urus complete with bumper scuffs, 100k miles, petrol at some unholy £/Ltr and all the consumables ready for a refresh.
A 10 year old BMW X5 diesel.. yeah I understand who wants to buy it and can afford to run it.
But a Urus? Bentayga? Cullinan? Ferrari whatever it’s called?
Whoever can comfortably afford to run it, can probably afford and wants a new one.
And whoever wants to lavish their life savings on a cherishing an older legend, would they really want an SUV shaped one?
Interesting times ahead that’s for sure. Not that it matters to anyone now

In my view, it's a Lamborghini and clearly many people think they have sold more than any other Lamborghini ever made.

You'd have a point if it was a Massey Ferguson with Lambo badge on it.

I think most people are aware lambo make tractors.
I don't get the dislike. If you don't want an SUV, then this is not for you. If you do, it is the Lambo of SUVs. How is that not a good thing? And I bet it is the fastest vehicle they make in the real world, off track, thanks to the better view from a high driving position.
If I had that sort of money to buy an SUV its the only one I would consider. Although I do rather like Jeep Trackhawks,for being silly but inconspicuous. (Yes I know there is no real comparison)

Nope, definitely the Monza GSE, which looks best in white with black wheels. Like this...https://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&...

So how is this less of a lambo than a Huracan?
It isn't :-) But the Huracan gets away with looking sleek and "supercarish". The Urus , does not.On the flip side, plenty (only on here, not in the real world) are adamant my R8 V10 isn't a "supercar" but the Huracan is :-) It's all pretty mad really . Badge power.
I just did a quick search to check how much is shared and found this really bang on excerpt.
"The Lamborghini Huracan boasts a beautiful V10 symphony like the Audi R8 and shares the same chassis too. Wearing the reputable ‘Lamborghini’ badge, the Huracan is a favored vehicle amongst the rich and famous. A sign of wealth and high status, Lamborghini pride themselves as offering some of the most unique and bespoke vehicles on the planet – their sporty Huracan is no exception.
Which mental machine do we prefer? With all aspects considered, including price, power, driver focus, practicality and road presence, we conclude that the Audi R8 is more value for money. This is because for Huracan sounds, Huracan power (almost) and a Huracan Chassis and Gearbox, the Audi R8 is the winning car.".
But, no supercar (on PH) , as it's an Audi :-) It really does make me smile. Caveat - I'd have a Huracan all day if money was no object, and, I could live with the attention. It's such a beautiful thing.

I bought one in Feb '22.
It hasn't lost a penny and I can still sell for a hefty premium.
I can't imagine a time when I could have done this.
My dream line up would be this for the family duties and a 992 911 Turbo S for when I want some fun driving.
I have just had a trip from Cheshire to Loch Lomond in the car with 2 adults, 3 kids, a weeks worth of luggage and it didn't miss a beat.
I have had a couple of RSQ8's and this is a good bit quicker and sounds a hell of a lot noisier and louder.
It's nice inside but I don't think it feels truly special. I have recently seen the interior of a nicely specced brand new Bentayga and the interior was significantly higher quality.
Real world numbers
I put in about £25k cash deposit, did a pcp for £2k a month. The residual is super high so the payments are affordable in my opinion for a £200k plus car.
My car was £218k when the boxes were ticked I would see back 15/ 20k profit right now even trading in at Lambo.

I prefer this:
But then again, bringing this back on topic, I may just like silver more than white because I really like this:
The Volkswagen Group has different price points and identities for multiple brands. With the Touareg, Q8, Cayenne, Urus and Bentayga, there’s something for everyone. That said, who ever thought they’d pay £55k+ for a VW.

Expect that to soften value wise as the new one is released and the general market down turn but I think your ll come out fine . It hasn't lost a penny and I can still sell for a hefty premium.

Sounds like you have a similar spec to mine value wise at least anyway, circa 218 as I recall.
