I had the chance to have a Huracan for a weekend before I ended up with a McLaren 650S Spider, I really enjoyed my time with the car but clearly I didn't fall in love with it, the bottom line was it wasn't 'special' and for £200k I expect something special, it was quick (but not mind bending), it handles great on the road (but in the end is a bit boring), love all the electronic displays etc, the switchgear etc are fun, but I come back to the key quality I was looking for a special drive, all the gadgets in the world in the end become boring, and your left with the driving experience, when I drove the 650S I was hooked instantly, insanely fast, incredible precision and just super fun handling.

One last point - the Huracan (as many have said) does sound fantastic, lots of pops + bangs, but my TVR Chimaera sounds better frankly (and thats a LOT cheaper!)

I went from 458 to Aventador initially, the Aventador was great fun a massive spectical but in reality didn't drive that well. So after that I went onto a Huracan and for me it's the best car I've ever driven.
Fantastic looks, fabulous interior by far them best I've seen in a super car and ballistically fast. I loved my 458 thought it was a great car however it's been in production for a long time and against the H it's looking it's age. I always thought the twin clutch gearbox in the 458 was brilliant but again the Lambo /Audi box is a stunner.
My advice is try a Huracan get a race exhaust fitted and enjoy it .I never keep my supercars more than 12 months but for once I don't know what to replace it with so I'll be happy to keep it for a while.

I have only driven a Huracan once (7 laps at the Las Vegas Speedway) and although I was a nearly 4 seconds faster than in a 991 GT3 I drove at the same time, I preferred the GT3 as a track car. And I prefer my 458 also, admittedly with only that limited drive in a Huracan, not a proper test. I'm not a huge fan of the dashboard either and overall I didn't just love it in that short experience. Old it may be, but I love the 458 and I also think it looks better than the Huracan. Everyone to their own of course, and having a Huracan is not exactly a problem, it is a totally stunning car.
