Huracan STS Evo?

Yup, it's basically the race car street legal with tons of carbon on the exterior and interior. If you look closely you'll spot the roof scoop. I've already spec'd mine but I can't see anything until the car drops. Once it does I will share what spec I got.
How close to the race car is it in reality? I’m teetering on the edge of depositing with HR Owen.SVJBalboni said:

So you were convinced enough by the numbers to pull the trigger? I still haven’t decided and may have missed the boat anyway by now. Drl22 said:

Not worried about production numbers because I plan on keeping it forever. The STO will most likely be the last hardcore V10 model from Lambo and it's the only car they've produced which is basically a race car street legal. SVJBalboni said:

Fair enough. I think we will see more Huracan models, the aventador replacement delays will see to that. However, with the announcement of possibly no ICE cars from 2030 this isn’t the time to sit around and not drive/buy these cars. Drl22 said:

From what I'm hearing this will be the last hardcore track variant for the Huracan. There might be AdP paint specials before the replacement arrives but that's about it.The bottom line is Lamborghini can't afford to keep the V10. \Audi is going to pull the plug on the V10 and Lambo doesn't have the R&D budget to keep the V10 alive plus stricter emission regulations and taxes for high displacement engines in places like China and India means they can't afford to have a V10 and a V12 in the lineup.

Am excited to see what they came up with - if it is basically the race car then it might be quite interesting (will make it a difficult to enjoy road car though I suspect)
It'll be close to the race car plus a good amount of exterior and interior weaved carbon. A first for a Huracan model. I'll share some info with you guys about the STO seeing how the car is coming out in a few days.
Back story, I was offered a Sian slot, I went to the factory to spec it but decided against it because I wasn't really impressed with it and for the money I could buy a Chiron. Long story short, during my visit I was shown a slide for the STO and I was shown a prototype STO which had camo and look like the STS.
Anyhow, here's a teaser how insane the STO will be

I understand they got more than 640bhp out of it but can’t claim it for emissions/homologation purposes. It should be closer to 670bhp.
The weight saving is a bit of a disappointment - only 43kgs or so lighter than the Perf, assuming those numbers are right. Having lost the front wheel driveshaft I’d have thought it would have been more.
The big gains here will be in braking (and the introduction of much needed cooling), huge aero advances and a new Pirelli Trofeo R tyre compound that will be similar levels of grip to the Cup 2 R tyres.
