no, I would expect next month..in time for Geneva, It would not be right to say much more at this point..other then I would expect the LP570/4-SP to increase in price.

At the end of the day its just my view nothing more, I know that Lam have good following, but the jnr super car market is very small in the UK.

What's the thought process behind the above ? I think values will stay firm on LP570-4 but do you think they will genuinely increase ?

not much for the 1st 6- 12 months, but the new car is what 227k with a spec..so that's what 70-80k to change for a new one.....Its not going to happen in my view, Mac have the same prob only it will be around 100k to change for that one.

There are not that many LP570/4SPs out there. I have not driven the new car, but I would be astonished if it were as exciting to drive as a 570/4-SP-SP, I ran one for most of last year, Probley one of the most exciting cars I have driven in a long time, not the quickest but absolutely the most exciting.

IMHO

That's exactly why I bought one ! I test drove 458, MP4 12C and the LP all back to back and chose the Gallardo which even cost more than the other 2.
I subsequently read one of your post re the LP570-4 and couldn't agree with you more about how much FUN it was.

Not having unlimited funds I did also want something that wasn't going to plummet like a stone and leave me high and dry in 2 years time with no where to go so the man maths then said, its rare, its a lightweight special edition and the new Huracan is going to be well over £200k with the convertible possibly another 2 years later at over £225k all making the Performante a strong proposition. By the time the Huracan convertible is out in 2 years its going to be circa twice the price of a Performante at over £110k more

Obviously I hope residuals on the LP570-4 are strong, not so worried about them actually increasing, but judging on the number of sceptical comments I've had on here re the car we are the minority view.

Here's to proving all the cynics, that slate the Gallardo, wrong. IMHO longer term I see it being the new Challenge Stradale.

Had the roof down on a hoon yesterday so roll on the summer down here on the English Riviera !

I would not worry about the Magazine Mobs, sceptical comments......easy to make when you have never driven or owned. I would not bet against a price increase.my over seas RS friends are asking about availability......post seeing the new car....

where's 227 coming from if the base of 175 already includes cf ceramic brakes, dual clutch jobby and big wheels ?

the increment from similarly equipped gallardo to huracan looks more like 10k to me

from PGT, a member that had viewed the London event....so for a Coupe with big wheels, CCBDs, leather, Nav, Music, and pearl paint, the price is? as for the 10k diff are you not referring to like for like when new....? I still say it will be 70k plus to change spec for spec...against a 570SP/4.

The biggest prob for the new car imv is the LP700, much to close on price,I would expect a flat trade by the time the new car hits the streets, agonist a 13 reg LP700....no comparison in my view.
IMHO

I spent a bit of time chatting with one of the Lambo sales team at the London preview. A reasonably specced car came to £214k. They have a price list for the extras at the dealerships. Hth.

From memory, mid range paint, advanced steering, magneto dampers, forged alloys, Bluetooth, sat nav, unicolour sportive, glass cover and parking. Perhaps if you have access to the price list you could post it on here as I can't remember the exact details

A reasonable spec car is still going to be over £200k whichever way you look at it. Make it an equivalent LP570-4 Performante and you have got to be adding at least £20k on and more if its a tin top convertible.
So in 2 years time when a lightweight convertible may be available its going to be conservatively £230k and maybe £250k in Huracan form.
Lets say a Performante in 2 years time is worth £130k, that's a minimum £100k more to trade up or buy in.

When you see it like that LP570-4 Performantes are incredible value and you could easily argue a case for their values increasing. Personally I think they will not necessarily go up but definitely remain very strong in the short term ( 3 years )

LP570-4 is the new Challenge Stradale boys, I told you first, so buy a ticket while you can

missing the point, A....I have checked the price of a proper spec new car on the road is 225k.... 570-4-SP will be what 140k by the time the new one is out, so that's 70k or more to swop.....or flat trade for a 13 reg LP700......don't believe the wait list either. My understanding is that this is made at the sausage factory......nice looking car through.....

but I never gave any nos to correct? as in option prices, The comparison I have always made is on the diff to change from a new car to that of a late 570/4-SP.......I still say it will be 70k plus....any way what ever.....

another problem IMV with the new car is performance, if that's the dry weight and I presume it has a 60ltr tank,? you need to add on at least another 100kg IMV.

Leaving the LP700 aside, which will be a much better buy than the new car, V12, Carbon tub, body, ect. The 991tts, MY13 12c, and GT3, let alone being at a price that is not far off 2 for 1 against the new car, will all be faster....albeit on track with the GT3.

IMHO

Love the Huracan to bits, I'm sure its a fantastic car to drive and will be the new car to have but at a price ( one that I can't afford or justify for sure )

The LP570-4 is a supercar bargain in comparison biggrin
