And no Exterior Style Package...... the shame of owning this car, no wonder the owner flipped it smile
Exterior Style package looks confused to me, after having a good study of one again at this weekend's Lambo Leicester meet. The side-skirts are gloss, as are the mirrors and front/rear grilles etc, but then the rear diffuser is matte, as are the wheels (if going for centre locks) and the trim around the lights. Its all ends up looking a bit incohesive to me.

Shame, because I like the black exhaust trims.

Ok they are not OEM but I can get top quality carpet mats with logos/lettering etc for less than £100.
As regards the laser etch aluminium ones I found them way to slippery when entering the vehicle as they are rock hard ( probably even harder than the carbon bucket seats if that's possible rofl )
I've got the options list in front of me now, and the only option for mats are "Floor mats with Performante logo (OTB)" and "Floor mats with leather pipng and double stitching (OTN)". So are the "aluminium" ones standard? Or part of the Performante "Laser Engraved" interior option perhaps?

Some have suggested that gloss PPF will re-create semi-gloss finish on the matt areas. If your going to PPF the car, then maybe style package is wasted money.

In addition, dealers can do black exhaust trims separately to the style package.

Think the laser ones are part of the laser engraving option but not opted for that on the seats or door cards anyway at £2300 from memory or whatever the expensive figure was.
I've just got standard mats FOC so I guess they come without the £600 Performante logo, what a cheepskate I am on a £250k car

Good to know (unless it's some exorbitant "Ad Personam" price! biggrin)

Yeah, 2.76k for "laser engraving". Ergh. Annoying as it's a "Performante-specific" option, so sets it apart from the regular line interiors.

Retro fitting black exhaust trims will reduce the Style pack difference to <£1000, so I would rather have the gloss parts as a base for PPF, ensuring a consistent high gloss finish.

So:

1) Standard are "aluminium" with grey edges

2) Laser engraved interior gets you (1) with engraving

3) OTB look like these:


4) OTN look like these:



... and one further factor, the Inverted Stitching option apparently changes the edging to (1) to interior colour from grey smile

Pretty much all the weight loss in the Huracan is down to the seats its a track special how many Porsche/Ferrari track cars would you see with comfort seats despite the trade for confort?

But if you want to use it everyday and touring race seats are always going to be hard work.

The Huracan seats are slightly better than SV ones, same seats but they have reclined them slightly. the issue with the Lambo seats is really easy to resolve, If you want more comfort with them or more headroom if you are tall they are actually pretty comfortable with a bit of decline on them.


Just add about 10mm spacers or washers, size to suit at the front and longer bolts this translates to about 3.5 inches at the top, the rails don't sit directly on each other even before, they only touch at the bolt points where there is already a welded spacer and so there is no more or less contact or strength with the new setup at an angle.

Most race teams use this method for fixed seats for taller drivers.
I think you are right. I'm bordering on too tall for a Lamborghini at 6ft. I can see that if you aren't naturally short that reclining them would help a lot.

RL, as mentioned I'm a pretty slim build myself, so natural padding doesn't come into the comfort equation.

List Price for being a lightweight short arse who is comfortable in bucket seats = PRICELESS

Whilst my mates bemoan my go karting skills I can assure you its got nothing to do with being a lightweight special edition and all about my driving skills getmecoat

Could be worse. Most Porsche GT threads are pages about contrasting stitching. And floor mats are an important factor, a deal breaker in fact. biggrin

My Spec, anticipated delivery May 2018, I need to finalize the spec by the middle of Jan,

I made the mistake of test driving one whilst my Gallardo was in for a service, it blew me away hence the order.

No Please don't Verde Mantis is cool and my choice for the spider with the narvi wheels.

Don't know of anyone else ordering Rosso Mars yet, and that's the way I want to keep it. 1 of 1 so its good to be a "freak or unique"

There are already a few Rosso Mars Performantes on the roads in the UK.

Nice can’t wait to see the spider! I’m not changing the Verdi Mantis, when are you getting the coupe or have you had it already?

7th of March apparently, been a long wait but think it will be worth it. Should be speccing the spider at Geneva at the same time. Can't wait
