Guys,

Having a look around at the moment and VVS's 2013 Performante Spyder caught my eye. It's the Rosso Mars one with 8k miles on it up for £155k.

Anyone know much about this car, seen at shows etc, history (I've done some checks on the usual stuff like MOT)? The car is currently on on RF13 HNY but has been on Y8 JPO previously.

I fancy putting another Lambo next to my SL Mk1 and would be also interested to see if anybody who has driven or owned both can give their perspective on how they compare (haven't driven it yet)? I'm also considering a Huracan Performante Coupe, totally different I know and having driven one it's an amazing piece of kit. However, I'm not convinced 100% that it's the right choice for me for a few reasons. I still prefer the looks of the Gallardos and at the same time want to keep my SL.

Any tips, thoughts, opinion much appreciated.
Thanks!

Huracan Performante moves the game on and is in a completely different league to the Gallardo IMHO

My Aventador is a significantly better car in all measurable ways than my Diablo, but only the Diablo is a keeper.

Exactly. Car choices are not necessarily rational.

Thanks all. Still would appreciate any views from anybody who's owned both SL Mk1 and Gallardo Perf in terms of comparison and if anybody has seen this car at shows etc.

The HPF without a doubt moves the game on, no question. But for me as others have stated, modern and better takes away a certain "something", whatever that is. Rational it's not but that's the beauty sometimes of having a car that's got flaws. The Huracan PF is almost too easy to drive and for me at least removes some of the engagement and feeling. Also, even in PF form I'm not "wowed" by the looks of the Huracan. Subjective I know. I was deeply impressed by it, don't get me wrong but £250k impressed, not sure.

The HPF is a faboulous and very special car but relax people there will be something along very shortly that’s better in every way to make the present car even more desirable.(that’s the way it works I think)
What makes me laugh about some people with cars that are “keepers” quite often don’t drive the bloody things, they are ornaments.
I’ve owned a few iconic cars and to be honest some (not all) are legends based on nostalgic bullst.
Each to their own tho!

I have something newer and more expensive, which is de facto better. I am much more refined and intelligent than you. And I am considerably wealthier too. You are a pauper.

Oh! And I have a bigger penis than you, too.

I forgot to mention it, but then it went without saying.

Lol. Let me guess you must drive a Gallardo. At least you are a sensitive soul
