Huracan to GT3

[Nicmenicnic]

Will i regret it? I know its totally different car but has anyone done this move?

[kman]

a friend of mine had both (delivered roughly at the same time too). She subsequently sold the Huracan. Later upgraded the GT3 to the RS.

It'll be slower!and feel less special!

Not the same as owning, but I drove the Huracan and GT3 back to back on track and much preferred the GT3. I prefer my 458 to both but the GT3 is probably a nicer, tidier track weapon.

If you like driving, like proper driving where the driver COUNTS and is 110% engaged, then a Huracan can't hold a candle to a GT3 ..... not any GT3 for that matter.

For posing, accelerating down motorways, wking off over what the thing looks like, basically all the shallow short lived thrills, the H is way ahead.

Make your move.

I love the GT3's but they don't look special in the way a Lambo does, there are loads of Porsches on the road so they don't stand out, you blend into the background so to speak. A victim of their own success......
For me I would have the Lambo without a second thought but a Mexico blue GT3 is devine!

Having owned 996 gt3, 997 Gt3 and Gt 4 I think I'm well placed to comment. However I concede I'd like a 991 Gt3 to run alongside the Huracan but it would always be in its shadow! I'm guessing you've never driven one, modern Lambos are very very capable.
As for wking off well what ever floats your boat!

Or you could just get a Mclaren and be done with it :-)

Shazbats comment needs a comment....

No modern car has real feel, its all engineered...

Everyone loves super fast super smooth dual clutches now... 0% engagement

Engagement is how it makes you feel, just looking at a lambo gives you engagement.. hth

[70proof]

On track, with all modern cars, engagement comes at 10/10ths, most true for gt3 1rs from what I've read...

Porker would know which way huracan went...

Watch Jethro with a huracan doing four wheel drifts and tell me there is a lack of engagement...

Steering feel will be better in Porsche, but even that isn't pure any more really

What does speed on track and doing 4 wheel drifts have to do with 'engagement'.....?

At that paticular time I'd have thought quite a lot tbh!

Well it depends what you consider to be engagement i suppose. Computer software programming does a hell of a lot of work to allow cars to have gotten much faster as well as being able to slide a car with the driver not really doing a lot. You can for example pull a reasonably big drift in a 458 on race mode allowing the computers to do most of the work and you just stamp on the throttle (quite possibly not even unwinding the lock).

Personally I'd consider engagement as how much feedback the car gives to the driver and how much input the driver has on the car behaving the way it does without the computers interfering rather than simply going quick/drifting. I don't incidentially have a strong opinion on whether the huracan is better than the 991gt3 in this respect not having driven a huracan and only briefly a 991gt3. I'd keep the huracan personally just for the engine though as the v10 is a super unit and it doesn't implode with track use like the gt3....

LOL . also road use.

isi mate, the huracan is programmed to understeer remember, be inherently safe, not drift at all... so getting it to do so requires driver engagement..... or the 580-2
